...complicated real estate deal called Castle Grande. Hubbell's actions, the indictment says, enabled his Rose firm to continue getting lucrative legal work from the Federal Government and helped mask from regulators the collapsing finances of Madison Guaranty, the savings and loan owned by James and Susan McDougal, the Clintons' Whitewater partners. If Hubbell knows something, especially about Hillary Clinton, Starr might yet be vindicated. But as Starr heads to his committee appearance this week, this latest move could also look like bug-eyed prosecutorial sadism. A senior White House aide just shrugged.

...Their interplay became all the more intriguing last week when the heretofore academic question of whether the President can be subpoenaed became a very, very real one.

But to stay out of prison, McDougal will have to persuade more judges and juries of the same -- or at least convince them of the deterioration of her spinal condition that persuaded Judge Howard to free her on compassionate grounds. The former Clinton Whitewater associate goes to trial in California next month on charges she embezzled $150,000 from the conductor Zubin Mehta when she worked...

...same, a deal is not a foregone conclusion. Earlier Whitewater targets have complained that Starr and his prosecutors demand very specific testimony in exchange for immunity. Just as Susan McDougal and Webb Hubbell have done, Lewinsky and her lawyers may decide he wants more than they can reasonably--or truthfully--give him. "Starr's record has been to try to persuade and pressure witnesses to tell them what he needs," says former presidential aide Lanny Davis. "These two [lawyers] will not put up with that...
