Is it the name of a cult anime show? Is it a company that makes cheap DVD players? Is it some sort of card game?

According to the Associated Press, it's none of the above:

A rubber company in China has begun marketing condoms under the brand names Clinton and Lewinsky.

The Clinton condoms will go on sale in southern China for 29.8 Yuan ($3.72) for a box of 12, while the Lewinsky model will be priced at 18.8 Yuan ($2.35) for the same quantity.

"The Clinton condom will be the top of our line," Spokesman Liu Wenhua of the Guangzhou Rubber Group said. "The Lewinsky condom is not quite as good."

Liu said the company had chosen to use the Clinton name because consumers viewed the former president as a responsible person, who would want to stress safe sex as an effective way to prevent the spread of the HIV virus.

"The names we chose are symbols of people who are responsible and dedicated to their jobs," he said. "I believe Bill Clinton cannot be unhappy about this because he's a very generous man."

Heh. Here's a primitive photoshop of a Clinton-Gore '96 poster.
