...asides and finally, extraordinary declarations. A midlevel official remembers standing outside Bacon's office with Lewinsky six months ago, watching as an image of Clinton flashed across the television screen. Her eyes on the TV, Lewinsky said, "I gave the President that tie." Then, in an untaped conversation with Tripp, Lewinsky allegedly held up a dress she claimed was stained with the President's semen and said, "I'll never wash it again...
...fruitful, would mortify the President. Goldberg has reportedly represented Dolly Kyle Browning, yet another woman alleging a Clinton affair (one debunked by critics). She also tried to get a book deal for the Arkansas state troopers who said they procured women for then Governor Clinton.

She's prepared to weather criticism of her motives. "I can take the hits," she told CNN. "I'm a rich old lady...
...could also, as some Republican Congressmen have begun to declare, rise to the level of the "high Crimes and Misdemeanors" the Constitution requires for impeachment. Other players in this drama may also be in legal trouble, including Clinton adviser Vernon Jordan, Lewinsky herself and even White House turncoat Linda Tripp. But obstruction-of-justice cases are notoriously hard to prove, and it isn't clear prosecutors would have the evidence they need. It is also uncertain whether the Constitution even permits criminal charges to be brought against a sitting President. Impeachment is a possibility, but it is a drastic step...
