Hypocrite they name is Ensign. Re: Clinton
Edited on Tue Jun-16-09 10:44 PM by DURHAM D
From Think Progress -

In 1998, while running for Nevada’s Senate seat against Harry Reid, Ensign called on President Clinton to resign in light of his admitted affair with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky:

“I came to that conclusion recently, and frankly it’s because of what he put his whole Cabinet through and what he has put the country through,” Ensign said Thursday, becoming the first member of the Nevada delegation to call for Clinton to quit. “He has no credibility left.”


So - why isn't Ensign resigning?

3. That '98 senate race itself later screamed of hypocrisy
Republicans demanded and paid for a statewide hand recount, two years before Bush v. Gore.

Reid won by something like 400 votes.
