Clinton weighs new Lewinsky remarks amid political peril
President Clinton weighs how and when to address lingering Lewinsky questions as Democrats push for a stronger statement. White House aides gather diverse advice while most Americans reportedly feel an apology suffices. Clinton plans a Worcester stop on school safety but will not discuss Lewinsky then. Local officials and a potential fundraising lunch amid Ohio politics reflect ongoing fallout and scrutiny ahead of midterms. Roy Romer urged a clearer contrition, calling the first speech misaligned with intent.
