...Secretary of Defense William Cohen visited Mr. King's neighborhood and waffled with Larry about the Iraq staredown. It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood when the next visitor, Democratic National Committee head Roy Romer, said that the contribution business is better than ever. Oh -- and he believes the President. Larry wrapped it up with the usual suspects: morality mogul Bill Bennett, Bob Squier (playing the Democrat) and Ed Rollins. Can you say b-o-r-i-n-g? Sure...
...affair on Tripp's tapes were just talk--Starr might have a difficult time. Of course, any tapes of Clinton leaving a message on Lewinsky's answering machine, if they exist, might help Starr. He could also try to prove the affair through circumstantial evidence like White House visitor logs, gifts and--perhaps more scientifically--a dress that reportedly has a semen stain from Clinton, which could be subjected to DNA testing. But what might seem to be the strongest evidence, Tripp's tapes of Lewinsky, would very probably be inadmissible as hearsay in a case against Clinton...
...BILL CLINTON'S initial 90-minute Oval Office meeting last Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister BENJAMIN NETANYAHU, the President chided his visitor for meeting with the Rev. JERRY FALWELL and evangelical Christian groups at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington the day before coming to the White House. "Look, Bibi," said Clinton firmly. "You meet with Falwell [because] you think I am snubbing you. I could make the argument that you are gigging me."

One plot contrivance, however, seems awkward: as a young man, we're told, Billy fell loony in love with Eva, a visitor from Ireland, and after she went home, sent her passage money to return and marry him. For years he believed (as his best friend had told him, inventing the tale to protect the sanity of a fragile romantic) that she had died tragically on the eve of her departure. In fact...
Eleven days before the election, the President is accused of sexual dalliance with a visitor to the Oval Office--an underage visitor, at that. What's needed, the spin doctor (a coolly cynical Robert De Niro) decrees, is a splendid little war to divert the populace. None being handy, one will have to be invented out of rumor and falsified electronic imagery...
