New book:

Quote
For one thing, Gormley writes that the special prosecutor's very questioning of Miss Lewinsky, then only 24 years old, was tainted because the lawyers in Starr's office ignored her repeated request to have a lawyer present. But other revelations in the book include the following:
-- The author's assertion that as governor of Arkansas, Clinton was romantically involved with Susan McDougal, the one-time wife of James McDougal, whose original failed savings and loan prompted the Starr investigation. Susan McDougal spent 18 months in jail rather than answer questions from prosecutors -- and was pardoned by Clinton on his way out of office. Susan McDougal refused to talk to Gormley, but the author writes of his certainty that "some intimate involvement did occur," a contention he reiterated in interviews withPolitico.
-- Robert W. Ray, the lawyer who succeeded Starr as head of the Office of the Independent Counsel, was prepared to indict Clinton after he left office if the former president did not agree to admit that he made false assertions about Lewinsky while under oath. Clinton accepted disbarment, which satisfied Ray. "President Clinton would never fully grasp how close he came to being indicted," states Gormley.

-- Attorneys working under Starr wrote a memo in which they sketched the outline of an indictment of both Hillary Rodham Clinton and Webb Hubbell, a Clinton crony and former law partner (with Mrs. Clinton) at Little Rock's Rose Law Firm. Hubbell ascended to the No. 3 position in the Justice Department during Bill Clinton's third term, but the prosecutors working in the independent counsel's office were focused on his work, along with the first lady's, at hiding the Clintons' involvement in Jim McDougal's failed thrift, Madison Guaranty Savings and Loan. Gormley writes that Hickman Ewing Jr., one of Starr's deputies, made a three-hour presentation on the pros and cons of such an indictment, but that afterward the vote against seeking it was unanimous.

The list might be shorter if one was to ask who hasn't had a affair with him

She had a vagina, lived in Arkansas, and knew the Clintons.  Case closed, there really isn't anything more that needs to be said to prove that one.

Possibly both, though I'm sure it wouldn't have been at the same time.  Though I think HRC was trying to mostly stay hetero and doing Vince Foster back in his pre-mortem days.

Hi,

I have a friend who has some serious connections, including a fraternity buddy who is in the secret service.  In the Arkansas days, from what he tells me, the group thing was in.....if you catch my drift.

So the answer to the question more than likely is D) All of the above......
