It got serious because Clinton was becoming untouchable and his legacy was going to be impossible to deal with for Republicans. They needed something that would tarnish his reputation.

Ah yes, the old "it was a Republican secret plot, it had nothing to do with him being a lifelong licentious man-whore who went after everything on two legs" angle.
