The piece argues Democrats smear independent counsel Kenneth Starr to undermine Whitewater Travelgate and Fostergate probes. It notes Starr’s conflicts of interest defenses and calls anti Starr attacks hypocritical while predicting broader campaign tactics if Republicans retaliate against Clinton aides. It cites Mayer New Yorker pieces and advisers Tuohy Dash and Horowitz as context.
