“it would appear that we are going into not a debate on the issues here, but a debate on who can find the best editorials. I say to the Senator from Maryland that he read from the Greensboro, NC, News and Record. I have found, over the few years that I have been in the Senate, when I get an unfavorable editorial in the News and Record, I finally did something right. But since we are going into the editorials, I will read one from USA Today. I am quoting from the last four paragraphs: Why did it take so long to find the papers? Subpoenas for Travelgate and Whitewater documents are many months old. Failure to provide them quickly warranted legal action. The statute of limitations for filing suits against Madison lawyers lapsed just days before the bills were produced. How could the White House have missed them? Mrs. Clinton and the President have raised questions, not Republicans. They have created the impression they may be covering up something by being less than thorough in responding to legitimate demands for information. This is not the first time Mrs. Clinton has run into such a problem. She never fully explained profits from a 1970 commodity trade-- And they are being kind to her when they say 'never fully explained.' She never even slightly explained. Concerns linger that the profits came from wealthy friends seeking political favors. There has never been any explanation of that.…”
