"As to your assertion that "Watergate would be but a minor footnote", I disagree. Still one of our worst presidents ever, so Watergate could have been "but a minor footnote" only in comparison to his other abuses of power."

Come on Charles. As a Lib, you'd call any recent Republican president the worst President ever. Some people feel the same way about your boy Bubba. I would give him credit however in that he would have burned the tapes and let his people make potential witnesses forget. Having the Woodwards and Bernsteins of the District in your back pocket, due to their political leanings, sure didn't hurt. Nixon, who incidenatally was not impeached, was man enough to step down.
