Monica Lewinsky, now 40 years old, is writing a tell-all book, the kind of book that often makes money on current topics. It should be interesting to see if a more-than-a-decade-old story of that genre pays off for any publisher offering that hefty some to Lewinsky for the story.
As the sordid story went down for Lewinsky, she was just 21 years old when her romantic and sexual encounters with Bill Clinton took place behind closed doors right at the White House. The scandal held national as well as international headlines for years, and the story nearly ousted him from the White House.
It will be interesting to see how much she reveals. And if she shows Clinton in a good way. Might still hold feelings for the man. Monica: the woman who almost brought down an administration.

Sorry if you inferred that. It was totally Bill who set himself up to be blackmailed and risked his presidency. She was just a smitten underling who endured countless jokes and had her life turned upside down.

Despite his history of being a womanizer when he was Governor of Arkansas, Bubba denies the incident ever happened:

Then Bubba weaves and dodges:

In the end Bubba admits the incident happened (sort of, there's a deflection concerning the White Water investigation in the middle):

And the Press, public, and the Legislature gave him a pass. Bubba, the Teflon POTUS.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.

You think Monica was hired by conservatives to destroy Bill? I think this is more capitalists wanting to make 25 million. True conservatives would be spending 12 million to drag congressional candidates nnames through the mud. Clinton is out of power.
