...Clinton's shoes. "Imagine if I were caught in my office with an intern," a moderate Senator told a group of mayors. "I'd be run out of town. Gone." Like all caucuses, the G.O.P.'s is driven by its most passionate members. While some are troubled by Ken Starr's veering off into a consensual affair, they hardly balance those who are enraged by Clinton. But perhaps the greatest fear in the G.O.P. is the O.J. factor--that if acquitted, Clinton will throw a party and announce a search for the person who got us into this mess...
...YEAR? By now everyone knows that the title notwithstanding, this designation is not the equivalent of a good-citizen award. Yeah, right. We took one look at the Bill Clinton-Ken Starr double billing on the Dec. 28-Jan. 4 cover, and we knew what we were in for.

Bennett's aggressive prosecutorial style has made him one of the most controversial figures in Starr's office and the one most despised by the White House. A veteran of the Justice Department's public-integrity section, Bennett has been under wraps ever since the federal judge overseeing Starr's grand jury called for an investigation of leaks from the independent counsel's shop; Bennett...
...professionally." But for that kind of money, Mrs. Clinton would have to tell almost all, admits the publisher. "Not everything, but quite a bit." Clearly Regan isn't ruing the one that got away: Monica. Having snubbed a $4 million book-and-TV offer from Regan before the Starr report was out, Monica was offered less than $1 million for a book afterward. The deal died, says Regan, partly because of the Lewinsky camp's distaste for another big-haired author of hers: Howard Stern...
