[0:00] Safety features for Corolla. Toyota

[0:02] introduces the all-new, totally

[0:04] redesigned Toyota Corolla. Discover

[0:06] Corolla.

[0:09] Again.

[0:12] Win [music] that lovely car. Watch Good

[0:14] Evening for details. Outlet.

[0:18] The instructions

[0:19] >> The expected nominee for Attorney

[0:20] General withdraws. Another nanny

[0:22] problem.

[0:24] The number of Americans with jobs goes

[0:26] up and the stock market sets another

[0:28] record.

[0:29] And a Chicago suburb a month after a

[0:31] massacre. Too many questions, no

[0:33] answers.

[0:36] This is NBC Nightly News [music] with

[0:39] Tom Brokaw. Tonight, sitting in for Tom

[0:42] is Stone Phillips.

[0:44] Good evening. For the second time in his

[0:46] young presidency, Bill Clinton's hopes

[0:48] of naming a female Attorney General have

[0:51] been dashed. And for the second time,

[0:53] the reason has to do with a nanny. Kimba

[0:56] Wood, a federal judge in New York who

[0:58] was the president's near-certain choice,

[1:00] withdrew her name from consideration

[1:01] late today. NBC's Andrea Mitchell is at

[1:04] the White House tonight. Andrea, this is

[1:06] déjà vu. It certainly is. The president

[1:09] has just issued a brief statement saying

[1:11] that he understands and respects Judge

[1:12] Wood's decision and wishes her well. Uh

[1:15] Judge Wood withdrew because, as she put

[1:17] it, she had uh hired an undocumented

[1:19] alien seven years ago before it was

[1:22] illegal to do so. She'd filed all

[1:24] papers. She had kept records. But it was

[1:27] perceived as a political problem. The

[1:28] White House said tonight that she was

[1:30] interviewed three times and asked if she

[1:32] had a Zoe Baird problem. A reference, of

[1:35] course, to the previous nominee for

[1:36] Attorney General
