What is disturbing is many students' inability to let down their guard and relax while sober. Dancing is scarce at many campus parties, and the little that takes place is terribly inhibited.

None lives at the Clinton White House anymore. The Old Guard, always spoiling for a good fight, was gone long ago. Many people who are left want to leave.
