'Senators, how say you?' 'Not guilty on all counts.'

Article Abstract:

President Bill Clinton has been acquitted of the two Articles of Impeachment against him. The Senate also rejected a formal motion of censure against him. The verdict represents a significant victory for Clinton and his lawyers, with the final vote being significantly less than the two-thirds majority needed for conviction. The White House has rejected claims that it will now exploit the verdict to take revenge against the Congressional Republicans who spearheaded the efforts to have Clinton impeached.

The making of some and the damning of others

Article Abstract:

President Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky and his subsequent impeachment have served to enhance the reputation of Hillary Clinton. She has gained great respect for supporting her husband, and her popularity is just as great as his. In contrast, Clinton's impeachment has had a negative impact on independent prosecutor Kenneth Starr, who has come across as an inflexible zealot. Similarly, the affair has damaged Newt Gingrich, who sought to use every opportunity to condemn Clinton.
