I re-read this article from 1998 at least once a year, and I suggest you do the same. Now seems like an especially appropriate time:

They call the capital city their town.
And their town has been turned upside down.
With some exceptions, the Washington Establishment is outraged by the presidents behavior in the Monica Lewinsky scandal. The polls show that a majority of Americans do not share that outrage. Around the nation, people are disgusted but want to move on; in Washington, despite Clinton's gains with the budget and the Mideast peace talks, people want some formal acknowledgment that the presidents behavior has been unacceptable. They want this, they say, not just for the sake of the community, but for the sake of the country and the presidency as well.
