...State Secret On the record, at last: the first named source to claim he saw the President and Monica Lewinsky alone has come forward, and he's a former secret serviceman. It could be the break Ken Starr has been waiting for. Full Story...
Since anyone who gets into scandal management can expect a Ken Starr subpoena, Gore has never taken part in sessions "on Whitewater, Travelgate, Filegate or any other gate," says a Gore adviser.

Clinton's lawyers attacked Ken Starr; Starr continued his assault on Clinton; and Lewinsky's lawyer played the middle against both ends, by charging that poor Monica is but "a pawn in their game." Writing exclusively in TIME, William Ginsburg reserves the most venom for Starr's legal team, which he portrays as an incompetent crew who took the wrong evidence from Lewinsky's apartment and went into a frenzy over the Drudge Report. Worse, Ginsburg says...
