Starr had not brought a new indictment in 1 1/2 years. While he was stalled, the lawyers in the Paula Jones sexual-harassment case were gaining speed, preparing a long list of witnesses who they thought might be able to testify to a pattern of aggressive sexual behavior by the President. When one of those witnesses, Linda Tripp, offered Starr her secret tape recordings of Monica Lewinsky describing an affair with the President and her intention to lie about it, it opened up a whole new world of opportunity for the prosecutor.

The religious right, too, has largely adopted her cause, while The Rutherford Institute, the conservative group that bankrolls Paula Jones' sex suit, has taken time off from attacking President Clinton with a perverse request for him to step in and save Tucker. Whether it's the fact that the 38-year-old former prostitute has "found God," or simple squeamishness at executing a woman who looks like someone you'd sit next to in church, America clearly cares more about...
