I don't believe Carville, partly because he's a hotdog, but mainly because he didn't come out with this most damaging story until the 11th hour. He has been attacking Starr so long, if the story were true he would have used it before this Fall. To give him the benefit of the doubt, perhaps some guy who vaguely resembled Starr said some such thing, and he had a vague recollection pop into his mind about the time the House voted to convict, and he honestly convinced himself that it was Starr.
As for "some associates", there is always debate about tactics in things like this, it is not hard to find people who are disgruntled that their views did not prevail. But even suppose that the prosecutor failed to exercise due discretion, that does not let Clinton off of the hook. I am one of those who believe that we toss out too much material evidence due to technical violations, and that we should admit almost everything, and sanction the prosecutor or the cops elsewhere.
