...major Democratic fund raiser and former Bradley finance chairman, to plan what a clean-but-effective fund-raising operation might look like. Campaign money is a ticklish subject for Bradley, who was criticized for raising a Goliath-like $12 million before his 1990 Senate race against Christine Todd Whitman, which he just barely won. This time he knows he must raise $25 million to compete in the primary, but he has been a vociferous critic of the campaign-finance system. He hoped the issue would launch a tide of grass-roots reform--a tide he could ride--but that didn...
...claims it was Currie who asked him to pick up some presents and even specified what to get Monica, according to the New York Times. This answer helps explain the T shirt from Martha's Vineyard but stretches credulity when it comes to his giving her a copy of Whitman's Leaves of Grass, which he also happened to give Hillary when they were courting. As for Lewinsky's gifts to Clinton, many people shovel trinkets at the President, and the smart ones know the best way to get gifts to Clinton is through Currie.

He said their relationship did include exchanging messages and gifts -- including that now infamous book of Walt Whitman poetry. The President admitted talking with his friend Vernon Jordan, who resumed his grand jury testimony Thursday, about the Washington power broker?s efforts to find the former intern a job. But -- and perhaps this is the most important detail -- Clinton added that it was Betty Currie, not himself, who initiated that job hunt on Lewinsky?s behalf. Currie, the President?s private secretary...
...Finally at 12, I called. They said, Oh, we forgot about it. So they suggested Thursday. This search was so important to the nation, yet they waited two days. When they came, they took things like Monica's computer, hatpins, T shirts, dresses, pantsuits and a copy of Walt Whitman's Leaves of Grass--a paperback version, not even the one the President gave Monica, which, by the way, wasn't even signed...
