  1. I don't doubt that slick Willie was pressured over the Lewinsky issue by Russia and others. However his ego is such that he may have just blown off the threat of blackmail believing he was untouchable....and events of the time would seem to support he was made of Teflon. The Clinton's are not the type you can blackmail....they are the type that blackmail others. To get the Clinton's to do what you want the bar, while not low is simple.....money. If you have the price they are always for sale. The Chinese learned this early and bought a lot of state secrets while Clinton was in office, many of them technology related. So I doubt he was blackmailed.....bought yes....but there is no profit to be had by allowing yourself to be blackmailed so I doubt it worked.
