President Clinton and his legal team should have been exultant last week when the attorneys for Paula Corbin Jones, who is suing the President for allegedly making a crude sexual advance in an Arkansas hotel room six years ago, abruptly withdrew from the case, citing "fundamental differences" with their client.
