GOP sees evasive Clinton on tape but no knockout
Republicans deemed Clinton's videotaped testimony not a knockout blow amid the Lewinsky affair. Lindsey Graham said the tape evades key questions and won't by itself justify impeachment, while Tom Harkin suggested a possible illness or deeper issue. Grassley and Canady warned the broadcast lacked decisive impact, as Armey praised the evasive approach and Gingrich urged truth telling.
