Cool, but, man, the whole Lewinsky Ho thing has been played out. We've had
enough already. Puh-leeeeaze.
Clinton hasn't been as fun to sample as Reagan or Bush was.
Anyone interested in sampling politicians can simply just videotape CNN, C-SPAN
or the network news and pore through what you can find. It's easier and more
creative to make something out of a given soundbite than take an already-said
soundbite and put it to use. And chances are doing it that way leads to
predictable and cliche results. A decade ago I made a song around George Bush
saying, "No...not perfect."
Just because it happened to be in that day's news.
Oh well, the 2000 presidential elections (at least here in the US) are coming
up, providing LOTS of samplable soundbites.
