Clinton Lewinsky scandal probes threaten private moral myths
The piece argues Americans resist detailing the Clinton Lewinsky affair while federal prosecutors under Ken Starr pursue Whitewater related questions. It links gifts and payoffs to obstruction and probes whether an Arkansas governor and later president used office to enrich himself and silence witnesses.
Quiet Congress and the era of big government over?
David Boldt argues a broad public indifference to federal action signals a sea change in trust toward Washington. The piece cites polls showing declining belief in small government and rising skepticism, yet widespread support for reform over dismantling. Boldt notes historical shifts and warns of a possible democratic readjustment.
