Peter Baker dixit:

Mr. Clinton’s lowest postelection moment arguably came less than 24 hours before he began his comeback. In April 1995, he was reduced to arguing at a news conference that “the president is relevant.” The next day, bombers blew up an Oklahoma City federal building, and Mr. Clinton’s steady, reassuring and empathetic response made him more of a national leader.

I remember the "Is the President still relevant" meme from way back when, and I have only one question (two, actually): Who were the journalists pushing this meme back then, and, if they are still in business, why are they still in business?
