Honestly, we would probably STILL have an independent counsel trying to find something on Clinton.
If you remember, the OIC was created to investigate Whitewater. When the original "investigator" had completed his investigatino and was about to clear Clinton the GOP cried foul, threw a hissy fit, and demanded someone new be appointed. And that's how we got Ken Starr. And Starr stayed on the job UNTIL he could find something (eventually the Lewinsky scandal).
Clinton's affair with her didn't happend until AFTER Ken Starr had been appointed to the OIC. And sex ain't a crime. It was only after the OIC illegally expanded its authority that enabled a crime to occur (perjury). It really was one of the worst cases of entrapment ever.
So ... if the Republicans never throw a hissy fit and appoint Starr to the OIC no crime occurs because no opportunity exists for Clinton to perjure himself.
