With the committee's decision looming overhead, Mister Clinton kept to
his public schedule.
He continues to count on his support in the polls to help pull him
through.
But at one event in Washington, it appeared to some that the controversy
was weighing on him.
Later, when asked about the Lewinsky scandal, the crowd tried to help
the President get away without answering.
