Hillary's History
Rodham will not seek New York Senate seat.

By Edward Anderson, Staff Writer, Daily Republican Newspaper

WASHINGTON — Hillary Rodham Clinton's move to make a run for a New York Senate seat has come to a sudden stall. Mrs. Clinton's skeleton closet is spilling over and she is not expected to make the run for a New York Senate seat. Not this century, anyway. She has been named three-dozen times in a current fraud indictment of her Little Rock Arkansas law partner, Webster Hubbell.

The Hubbell trial is set to commence in a few weeks. By that time. Mrs. Clinton is expecting to be called as a material witness. But that's not all. She is expected to be spotlighted in the criminal contempt trial of her Whitewater partner Susan McDougal, in a few weeks. McDougal was indicted in connection with a series of unexplained fraudulent money transactions in which Mrs. Clinton was believed to have been a player.

Mrs. Clinton is expected to be called as a witness to explain why Hubbell concealed his and Mrs. Clinton's work during the 1980s on a failed Arkansas land deal known as Castle Grande that federal regulators say was riddled with "insider dealing, fictitious sales and land flips."

Clinton's Whitewater partner, Jim McDougal, tried to sell off pieces of Castle Grande to prop up his collapsing savings and loan. The indictment against Mrs. McDougal contains questions about Mrs. Clinton and Castle Grande.

In the meanwhile, Dick Morris, a political consultant who once was a key advisor to president Clinton, has been saying he thinks Mrs. Clinton should postpone running for office, now. And Mrs. Clinton's videotaped grand jury testimony in 1996, has her denial of any knowledge of how her missing Rose Law Firm billing records revealing her work on Castle Grande.

While under oath she was asked about the billing records. Mrs. Clinton said she was unable to recall any of the legal work shown on the records for which she billed the law firm and for which she was paid.

Webster Hubbell, a Clinton appointee as deputy Attorney General of the United States filed a guilty plea toacts of mail fraud, false billing, and tax evasion. He then served nearly two years in federal prison. Now, Hubbell faces new tax evasion charges.
