Kieran,
Nothing that Clinton did surprised me. Being from Arkansas, and not one of his sycophants, his moral piccadillos were disgustingly familiar. He once had the state attorney general's office conduct an investigation of his republican opponent for governor on a charge that he had already been found not guilty on by a state investigating commission. This happened two weeks before the election.
The national press didnt bother to investigate the things about him that really mattered before gushing all over him during the election of 1992.
