Whitewater Dregs

The Senate Whitewater Committee is wrapping up the week's hearing schedule with more witnesses from the fringes of the controversy. Republicans are keeping the panel going with second-tier witnesses, because the independent counsel has barred them from calling the higher-profile players during his investigation.
