36. Yep. We still had Dan Rather before he was forced out.

Don't think Poppy wasn't still salty after having been made an idiot to millions of viewers.

This was before they bought everything starting in 1996.

The BCCI was bad news and certainly would have stained him, but so was the S&L and Iran-Contra. I/C was widely exposed, the S&L not so much, since it was too complex for the average individual to get. Both of those involved Bewshes of some sort, but like BCCI, everyone powerful involved more or less remained untouched.

41 not winning certainly avoided him a lot of future mess. I wouldn't have been optimistic about impeachment since he has a lot of powerful friends.
