...with Lauren and with the furious folk art of slamming--a mix of hipster poetry contest and hip-hop riffing. Now Slam starts to look like a 'hooded update of The Corn Is Green and A Star Is Born. But hope is never that simple. Ray realizes that the prospect of a meaningful future can be even more frustrating than the certitude of two to five in a D.C. cell...

The evidence against Clinton was ugly, many of them said, but not ugly enough to launch an impeachment inquiry--unless, of course, there was more to come. Republicans, therefore, used the prospect of new charges against the President to justify an open-ended impeachment inquiry and were well served last week when Starr sent a letter the day before the vote saying he could not "foreclose the possibility" of lodging fresh accusations against Clinton...
