...give a Democratic prosecutor $50 million to see what he can come up with about Orrin Hatch. Senator Hatch is a fine Christian gentleman, but $50 million is a lot of money. You could find out a great deal about someone for that. Get copies of videotapes from security cameras in every store he ever shopped in, and if he ever scratched himself in public, we could watch it. Maybe he was undercharged for a pack of hair curlers once and neglected to tell the clerk about it. Interview everyone who has a grudge against him--old secretaries...

WASHINGTON: The House's older, wiser brother is finally living up to its deliberative billing. Senators on both sides of the aisle agreed Sunday that the apparent shortage of votes to convict Bill Clinton wouldn't -- and shouldn't -- stop the Senate from holding a trial. Censure, which Orrin Hatch on Sunday couldn't help qualifying as "the next best thing," now looks like the only thing left. For the bored majority of Americans, of course, the question is the same as it is for the White House: How much longer...
