As President Clinton attended an Irish American Peace Rally, it was clear the White House was getting ready for a political war. The objective: saving the President from impeachment. While Mr. Clinton was all smiles, his lawyers were sending a different message. He is a political target.
(SOT: David Kendall, Clinton Attorney)

"This is personal, not impeachable." It was a defining day for the Clinton presidency as the House of Representatives voted to release details of the Independent Counsel's report into the Monica Lewinsky affair. Starr claims the evidence "may constitute grounds for impeachment." And that Mr. Clinton pursued a "strategy of deceiving the American people and Congress." The report also contains sexually explicit details of the Lewinsky affair, details some in Congress already vowing not to focus on.
(SOT: Sen. Orin Hatch, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman)

"The sex is unimportant, it's the other issues we have to closely look at." Earlier the President was apologizing again for his actions. At an emotional White House prayer breakfast, he went as far as admitting sin, sorrow and promised repentance.
(SOT: Clinton)

"It is important to me that everybody who has been hurt know that the sorrow I feel is genuine -- first and most important, my family, also my friends, my staff, my Cabinet, Monica Lewinsky and her family, and the American people. I have asked all for their forgiveness."))

They are the faces of Roanokers who've played a part in State politics. Today the black cloth was pulled away to reveal Governors, Senators and Delegates from the area.
Governor's Linwood Holton, J-Lindsay Almond, Junior and E-Lee Trinkle adorn the walls of the Gallery.
Family members of the state leaders paid for the portraits. (------------) They're on display in the foyer of the Commonwealth building downtown.
