It is indeed playing out. Search engine ratings for Starr Report have
dropped to the point where MP3 is once again on top, and we did have an
interesting one hour spike of Paleozoic schist, a kind of stone, briefly.

I doubt their careers are dead. Monicagate, as some congresscritter
FINALLY said on PBS, is not about sex, it is about lies, perjury and the
obstruction of justice. The topic of those lies was sex, but the actions
being investigated are perjury and tampering with evidence in effort to
obstruct justice. Sex has Very Little to do with it. It is all about
Personal Integrity, or the lack there of.
After sources in the white house have been traced as leaking the
damaging information, the Democrats, to their credit, have stated they
will not provide funds to any candidate who initiates personal attacks on
the private lives of others.

I doubt the Drudge Report is much believed, likely not more than
supermarket tabloids claiming Nostradamus predicts the end of the world,
or that President Kennedy haunts the white house. They are there for
entertainment purposes only, not for news.
