...House deputy chief of staff Harold Ickes, Hillary Clinton confidante Susan Thomases and Webster Hubbell, the former Associate Attorney General who is serving time for inflating billing records at the Rose Law Firm in Little Rock. And after briefly trying to assign the task to the FBI, Attorney General Janet Reno has asked Starr to investigate how the White House got hold of secret bureau files on officials of the Bush and Reagan administrations. Reno's pass to him undercuts Administration attempts to portray the special prosecutor as an unindicted co-conspirator of the Dole campaign, just a courtroom branch...

White House press secretary Mike McCurry said the Administration would welcome an outside investigation, and hoped that it would "shut up" GOP critics. Reno's decision to assign an independent prosecutor will deflect GOP allegations that the White House is influencing the investigation, says TIME's Jay Carney. In addition, Starr, Reno...
