How Bill Clinton's tawdry affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky outraged his staff, devastated Hillary and could end up LOSING her the presidency

The discovery that he had oral sex with an intern in the Oval Office in January 1998 abruptly changed the course of Bill Clinton's presidency. But it wasn't breaking news to those who had worked closely with him during his Arkansas days.

Bill Clinton's womanizing had been louder than a buzzsaw for a long time.

But the emerging details of his tawdry liaison with the flirtatious and zaftig Monica Lewinsky was devastating to his staff.

It sent them into a tailspin and it jeopardized the legacy of his administration. It was also bitterly painful for Hillary Clinton. And it could be even more painful as her husband's dalliances come back to haunt the presidential candidate.

Already, Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, Dolly Kyle and Monica's confidante Linda Tripp have questioned Hillary's abilities to run the country.

Willey joined an organization to campaign against Hillary's presidential race earlier this year, while Tripp has said that Hillary 'must never become president'. Kyle has revealed that Hillary got her to lie about her affair on 60 Minutes and says she can't be trusted.

Jones called Hillary a 'liar'.

Yes this is all so true. But what worries me is that there is a whole generation voting now that doesn't even remember what an embarrassment and liar President Clinton was to the country.

She should stand on her own merit. That alone should stop many from placing a vote for Hilary this fall.

What about his affair with Jennifer Flowers his other long time affair, why do the media and voting age people forget all this? What about the strange "suicide" of Foster he was one of Hilary's best friends in their hayday in office and there are others.

12:29, Liddy:
Agree with you totally! If all of them would just tell us why they should be president & stand on their own merits, I would/could be much happier with whatever outcome.
My hubby would not, however. He views it as an athletic competition & reviles changing anything.
