From the NY Times reconstruction piece:

On one level, the answer to the question "How did we get here?" is easy.

"It's a consequence, first and foremost, of the president's appalling behavior," said Mike McCurry, the president's former press secretary. "And you can't get around it and you can't explain it."

But equally important was the determination of Clinton's political enemies to not see him slip off the hook one more time, even if that meant a wrenching and unpopular impeachment vote.

I think that covers both sides of it.
