...September Boston magazine made public what had been an open secret in political circles: that Finkelstein, who has worked for such antigay conservatives as Jesse Helms and Lauch Faircloth, is gay. Also damaging are news reports suggesting that D'Amato's Senate-campaign committee has been spending money in a way that favors Finkelstein-directed races. At D'Amato's urging, several G.O.P. candidates, including Boschwitz, Senator Larry Pressler of South Dakota and Representative Dick Zimmer of New Jersey, have replaced their strategists with Finkelstein. The candidates were apparently rewarded for this: D'Amato's committee bankrolled TV attacks against...
...Senate committee investigating Whitewater has suspended hearings while Democrats and Republicans bicker over funding, but the testimony by witnesses has already led South Carolina Republican Lauch Faircloth to label the First Lady a liar. Not all the news is bad for the Clintons: two weeks ago, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (which took over for the now defunct Resolution Trust Corp.) concluded that neither Hillary Clinton nor the Rose Law Firm should be sued for any losses incurred by the failed S&L Madison Guaranty...
...next five months, Kennedy and Kassebaum tracked down a number of conservative suspects, among them Oklahoma's Don Nickles, Arizona's John Kyl, North Carolina's Jesse Helms and Lauch Faircloth, and majority whip Trent Lott.

The association also fears that...
...colossal game of Clue commenced, played for blood. Declared North Carolina Republican Lauch Faircloth: "We have no choice but to depose the First Lady and Mr. Clinton on the reasonable assumption of possible obstruction of justice." That may be premature, since in addition to the Clintons, the book room is accessible to guests, some servants and Huber herself. But the list is finite, the White House keeps a guest log, and Starr is said to have the fbi dusting the printouts for fingerprints...
...buying. Long suspicious that the Clinton's knew the whereabouts of the records, and that they may have arranged for their removal from the late Vincent Foster's office the night he committed suicide, Senator Alfonse D'Amato announced he might solicit written explanations from the Clintons. Sen. Lauch Faircloth charged they "likely have a very serious case of obstruction of justice." Slow down, said Democratic counsel Richard Ben-Veniste, reminding his colleagues that obstruction of justice is "not a term to throw around," though he acknowledged the committee should look into "whether there were any shenanigans...
