And that quote is also in The New Republic. The issue isn't about whether or not he has a DUI/DWI/OUI. Remember the standard that they held President Clinton to? It wasn't the sex as much as he lied about it. When the reporter who was questioning him with regard to his arrest in 1968 for a college prank asked him if he had ever been arrested since them. His answer was an unambigous "No". Then he started to qualify it and his handler took him by the arm. He chose not to refute it. There is a line from Shakespeare that applies. "He doth protest too loudly". His hypocritical statements about integrity and honor as if Al Gore doesn't have it ring very loudly today. All he had to do was come clean and there would have been no problem.
