ask you the question, paul, because someone who helped bill clinton get through the whole monica lewinsky scandal, as all of our viewers will remember. >> first, he's got to look at the ways he can be removed from his job. most importantly, the house can expel him before his constituents get a chance to vote through the ethics committee process. so he could have real exposure with the ethics committee. we don't know the rest of the facts. he by goalie better be fully candid with the ethics committee or he will be through. and then he's got to get back to work. he's got to deliver for his constituents. people didn't approve of bill clinton or his affair or his lies but they approved of his job as president and that is what saved him. he's got to show his folks back home. >> what does he need to do to survive? >> go into therapy immediately and be totally candid with other members of the delegation. and he's got to distinct wish himself from chris lee. republicans are going to say, our guy resigned. why are you not going to resign? democrats have one standard and republicans have another an
