Sorry is the hardest word

Article Abstract:

President Bill Clinton has described his relationship between Monica Lewisky as 'inapproporiate', and he has not been able to say 'sorry'. His marriage has been used to further his political career, and this type of agreement has a long history, from Roman times through Franklin Roosevelt and his wife Eleanor. The US public simply wishes to hear no more about the affair. Meanwhile, Clinton maybe a poor husband, but he appears to be a good father, and there may be some shame for the sake of his daughter.

Acceptable face of conservatism

Article Abstract:

Ffion Hague, wife of UK Conservative party leader William Hague, has considerable academic and professional abilities, but has shown that she is still rather naive about politics. She has chosen not to express her views in public so far, but this means that the Conservative party cannot use her to attract young professional women. She has indicated firmly that she will not make herself available to attend all Conservative party functions.
