...Trent Lott has been bandying the idea about since March -- but with Clinton's speech proving less than satisfying for both sides, censure is gaining support in the President's own party. "Democrats like this," reports Branegan. "They see it as a way out, a show of bipartisanship that would put their disapproval on the record."

Even so, she insists that her life-style eventually eroded into "deception, and emotional instability." John...

"Senator Lott is mashing together several unrelated charges in search of an issue for the November election," says TIME White House correspondent Jay Branegan.
