White House aides may portray Starr as a leaker and a bully, but he doesn't really have to answer to anyone; he just has to build a case. And it may have been a calculated gamble he was making. "He's trying to lock in all the other witnesses and figure out all the other stuff they know," says a former prosecutor familiar with the case. "That way, he can question Monica.
