NYC mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner learned the hard way the past can come back to haunt you.

But are Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton about to experience this firsthand, too? Well, take this with a grain (or shakerful) of salt, but the National Enquirer claims they've obtained the audio from a  "sex tape" recorded during the duo's infamous 1997 affair.

The not-always-trustworthy tabloid published a transcript Wednesday of the purported tape, which they claim to have obtained by a cleaner hired to clear out Lewinsky's apartment. According to the rag, the three-and-a-half-minute tape features Lewinsky, then 24, pleading to see the president.

"Since I know you will be alone tomorrow evening, I have two proposals for you, neither of which is you not seeing me," the former White House intern reportedly tells Clinton, who was 50 at the time. "I could take my clothes off and start… well…I know you wouldn't enjoy that? I hope to see you later and I hope you will follow my script and do what I want."

She reportedly adds some visual commentary, saying, "In the meantime I quickly sneak over and then we can have a nice little visit for, you know, 15 minutes or half an hour. Whatever you want...You can't refuse me because I'm too cute and adorable and soon I won't be here anymore to pop over."

The National Enquirer claims that Bill and Hillary Clinton, who have now been married 38 years, "thought this sex tape was dead and buried."

Hilary, like Weiner's wife Huma Abedin, stood by her husband despite his infidelity. Abedin also happens to work as Hilary's  transition office chief.
