Bill Clinton: “No, and it's a highly politicized operation. And I think it's obvious, there's no precedent for it that I know of, ever.…”

“No, and it's a highly politicized operation. And I think it's obvious, there's no precedent for it that I know of, ever. But even so, it's very hard to just make things up. And I don't think anyone doubts that, for example, Mr. Lindsey, if there was any serious evidence that he'd done anything wrong that they would have moved against him. So we'll just wait and see. But I still believe it's hard to make a lie stick and call it the truth. I think in the end the American people will figure it out. And I wake up and go to bed every night with that assurance, and I'm just going to keep working. Mr. Brokaw. Mr. President, we've got a lot of ground to cover here tonight, a lot of substantive issues. We've got phone calls. We've got questions from the Internet, as well, to get to. We'll be back with ``InterNight'' in a moment. [At this point, the network took a commercial break.] Tobacco Mr. Brokaw. Mr. President, do you think that smoking is an American health hazard?”
