...part of Kenneth Starr's Whitewater investigation that actually deals with Whitewater, the key witness is David Hale. Hale says that in 1986, when he headed a small lending operation, Bill Clinton pressured him to make an illegal loan to Susan McDougal, a partner of the Clintons in Whitewater. Testimony by Hale helped convict McDougal, her ex-husband James and former Arkansas Governor Jim Guy Tucker, Starr's biggest prizes to date. All the same, Hale is not the ideal keystone for a case against the President. Not when Hale has pleaded guilty to fraud. And not when he started...

And Hubbell isn't the only one who has stymied Starr. Clinton's former Whitewater partner Susan McDougal has refused to cooperate. The Clintons have had their memory lapses. And Starr has failed to turn...
...Clinton pressured former judge David Hale to make an illegal $300,000 loan to Susan McDougal. That allegation came from Hale, a convicted felon whose credibility took another beating last month when published reports accused him of receiving payments from right-wing Clinton haters. Clinton's other Whitewater partner, Jim McDougal, at first denied the allegation, then confirmed it--but his credibility was no better than Hale's, and he died last month in prison. Starr can't build a case around the Hale loan unless Tucker confirms Clinton's role in it. And sources familiar with Tucker's testimony...
