Have you read All Too Human: A Political Education by George Stephanopoulos ? ( Yes - I know ! But I read things on both sides of the fence. It's part of my job,and I tend to read a lot ......).
Anyway, it is an interesting read. G.S. is quite candid about his eventual fall from grace in the White House, and the influence of Hillary behind the scenes and in specific detail on some issues. In the last 100 pages of the book, a great deal is covered on how Dick Morris once again won the President's favor (helped BC on his 1st campaign for Ark. Governor, then dropped by B.C., then rehired, etc.). The amount of influence he (D.M.) had on the President in 1996 is quite amazing, and the manuevering for power behind the scenes is really interesting.
One conclusion I formed after reading this : Dick Morris is a scary man - bright in some areas, stupid in others -letting a prostitute listen in on his phone calls with the POTUS - nevertheless, a scary man, IMO.

Edit for clarity: I don't discount what Morris said on Fox. However, having read some background on him, he could be spot on regarding any topic at all, and I would still have a hard time with what he says.
