"Bill and Al's excellent adventure" came to a tense end in the Clinton impeachment crisis and the Gore election loss _ the heady days of the '92 campaign a distant memory. Now those old boys on the bus are back in Washington, Clinton raising money for his wife and Gore as environmental sage and potential candidate. (AP Photo/Doug Mills)
