...lawyers plan to say Jones doesn't even have to prove she was mistreated so long as she can show the inverse: that other women were given favorable treatment after they "succumbed" to Clinton's advances. The two examples are Gennifer Flowers (who got a state job) and Kathleen Willey (who reportedly has said President Clinton kissed and fondled her in 1993 and who later traveled on foreign junkets and got a job on the USO board...
LITTLE ROCK: Monica Lewinsky. Kathleen Willey. Gennifer Flowers. Dolly Kyle Browning. Former Miss America Elizabeth Ward. All these women -- along with anonymous "Jane Does" -- appear in the 700-page filing made by Paula Jones' lawyers Friday, part of a bid to explain why her case should go to trial.

Penniless and publicly humiliated, Willey came to see Clinton, weeping and distraught, and he felt her pain, the source says, only to find himself accused...
...Steele's affidavit undermines Willey's testimony, it becomes just one more reason the White House may be wanting a trial and the Jones camp may be looking for a deal. At this point, some aides argue, Clinton has little more to lose; the damage to his reputation has been done, and if the jury rules against him, he can blame the poisonous atmosphere around Kenneth Starr's investigation. If he were to win, he could spin the victory into a vindication against all accusations against...
