Meh. A hastily-passed constitutional amendment and a shakeup at the Democractic Convention and good ol’ Bill would easily be the Dem nominee in 2004.

He’d probably win, too. His reputation is that he’s a horndog, but it turned out that being a horndog does not disqualify you from being an effective and popular president.

Some future descendent of Robert Graves will write “I, Clinton” and Bill will be portrayed as a well-meaning but flawed caretaker leader surrounded by people of varying degrees of nastiness.
