Potentially the most damaging questions for Lindsey will concern the list of "talking points" that Lewinsky allegedly gave Linda Tripp in mid-January, shortly before Tripp was scheduled to give a deposition in the Paula Jones case. Tripp had apparently been summoned to talk about the 1993 episode in which she saw Kathleen Willey, a White House volunteer, not far from the Oval Office with her lipstick smeared and her blouse untucked. The talking points offered Tripp guidance on what to say and invited her to change her story...
...when the campaign made large transactions in cash. Lindsey testified that he made no such effort. The jury acquitted Branscum and Hill of some charges and deadlocked on the rest, and Starr's case collapsed. The judge in the case, however, Susan Webber Wright, who now presides over the Paula Jones trial, ruled in a sealed finding during the case that a preponderance of the evidence deeply implicated Lindsey. As he faces Starr a second time, Lindsey may have to explain why he's not implicated in the latest Clinton scandal. But the White House may come to his rescue...
...another case, Starr's office is accused of engaging in a questionable practice that resembles the "talking points" that Monica Lewinsky, acting at the behest of persons unknown, is alleged to have offered Linda Tripp to guide Tripp's deposition testimony to lawyers for Paula Jones. Steve Smith, a longtime Clinton friend and adviser, is the former president of Madison Savings & Loan, the institution at the center of Whitewater. After being targeted by Starr, Smith entered a guilty plea to a misdemeanor charge of conspiring to divert government-backed loan proceeds. But he insists that lawyers on Starr's staff...

By that time Starr had nearly entered the Virginia Republican Senate primary that Oliver North eventually won, and had considered writing a Supreme Court brief supporting Paula Jones' argument that her case should be allowed to go forward while Clinton was in office. Citing questions about his fairness, the New York Times called for Starr to resign almost as soon as he was appointed...
...begin with sexual harassment. Last May, when the Supreme Court rejected President Clinton's claim that Paula Jones' sexual-harassment suit should be delayed until he left office, the Justices unanimously dismissed the President's claim that allowing the suit to proceed would generate unrelated litigation that might hamper his ability to do his job. The events of last week suggest that the court's optimism was misplaced...
