BBC News: Reports the following on Monica Lewinsky , " The one-time White House intern whose affair with President Bill Clinton led to his impeachment in the US Senate has broken her long silence in the media. "
Lets Get Real:
Monica Lewinsky is the woman who almost bought down President Clinton in 1998, their affair made headlines around the World, it was her word against his in till she produced that dress that confirmed that an affair had taken place. Its odd this blog is only a few years older than Ms Lewinsky, the Clinton Era feels a life time ago, the 1990s, the US was going through an economic boom, the US lead the Western alliance, and its leader Bill Clinton could not help himself, he had an affair, then denied that affair for months in till the polls changed in his favour. The Lewinksy scandal has come back to life because of the good chance that former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton will be the Democratic nominee for President in 2016, thus the shadow of the old dog comes in to question, how will Republicans deal with the issue, Jeb Bush it can be expected will not bring it up, while others who really want the nomination will take the issue and make it a major issue. Lets be honest Al Gore lost in 2000 because of the scandal, he should have won, Bill Clinton has a lot to answer for on the political front.
