Robert Dornan: “these are going to be 2 very difficult years, and I am going to try and save my thunder for outside the Halls of this…”

“these are going to be 2 very difficult years, and I am going to try and save my thunder for outside the Halls of this Chamber and for New Hampshire and Iowa and other places. But I think every American should read the front page story of the Washington Post today on Mr. Clinton. It goes into A-4, and opens up, rips off, every tragic scab and scar from the 1992 campaign. Bob Woodward's book ``Agenda'' on page 287 has Mr. Clinton yelling, it says, ``------ you'' at a U.S. Senator, Bob Kerrey, a Medal of Honor winner. I am telling all my colleagues on both sides of the aisle, I saw George Stephanopoulos coming out of Dick Gephardt's office the night before last. We know Dick has been in the press the last 2 days. Mr. Clinton is not going to be the nominee of your party. I believe it is going to be a Medal of Honor winner named Bob Kerrey. That is going to create a lot of problems for our side. Let us have a civil debate here. But when the gentleman from Illinois [Mr. Durbin] gets up and hits my party, I have every right to say read ``The Agenda,'' read ``First in His Class,'' read the front page of the Post today. It is going to be a hot 2 years.”
