BODY: Sentelle's lunch with Helms and Faircloth, and his overall record of choosing special prosecutors, have become central to the claim, made yesterday by Hillary Rodham Clinton, that Starr's latest investigation is part of a broader effort by Bill Clinton's opponents to discredit his presidency. While Sentelle's power largely rests with appointing special prosecutors, Hillary Clinton, for one, views him as one of the people who allowed Starr's investigation to snowball beyond the land deal that he was appointed to investigate. "It's not just one person, it's an entire operation," Mrs. Clinton said on the "Today" show yesterday, tracing Starr's investigation back to "the same three-judge panel that removed Robert observers, wields most of the decision-making power. Whether he has used that power judiciously is now a matter of partisan debate. After Mrs. Clinton's comments yesterday, Republicans rose in defense of the process and the prosecutors.

And that is, what is the exact nature of the relationship between your husband and Monica Lewinsky? Has he described that relationship in detail to you? CLINTON: Well, So from my perspective, this is part of a continuing political campaign against my husband. LAUER: To the best of your knowledge, Mrs. Clinton, has your husband ever given or received gifts from or to Monica Lewinsky? CLINTON: I'm not going to comment on any specific Six years later, you are still standing by this man, your husband, through some difficult charges. If he were to be asked today, Mrs. Clinton, do you think he would admit that he again has caused pain in this marriage? CLINTON: No, absolutely not. And he shouldn't. You know, we've been married frankly, to undo the results of two elections. LAUER: Let me take you and your husband out of this for a second. Bill and Hillary Clinton aren't involved in this story.

Mrs. Clinton, in a previously scheduled interview on NBC's Today, attacked Whitewater independent counsel Kenneth Starr, whose investigation has scratching for dirt, intimidating witnesses, doing everything possible to try to make some accusation against my husband,' Mrs. Clinton said. Reprising the administration's charges of a broad anti-Clinton conspiracy, the first lady said: "We've been accused of everything, received credible evidence of serious federal crimes" and that it was being conducted by experienced prosecutors and law enforcement officials. Mrs. Clinton's comments, which drew cheers at the White House senior staff meeting on Tuesday morning, opened one of Washington's gag order issued by Judge Wright. On the Today set in New York City's Rockefeller Center, Mrs. Clinton stepped into a role already familiar to many Americans: her husband's chief defender. The nation first saw her in that role week when Gennifer Flowers' allegations of a 12-year sexual affair with Mr. Clinton threatened to torpedo his presidential candidacy. Mrs. Clinton appeared at his side on the Super Bowl Sunday edition of CBS' 60 Minutes. "You know, I'm not sitting here as some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette," " Mrs. Clinton said at that time.

"Mrs. Clinton is more disciplined and better organized. She can build a defense in an orderly fashion. Besides firing a broadside at her husband's critics, Mrs. Clinton offered the subtler message that if she is comfortable with their marriage, everyone else should be, too. She took a similar tack in 1992. "We've been married I would like to see times, dates, places, people and where they met, II he said in an interview. In making her case, Mrs. Clinton noted Mr. Starr's Republican ties, as well as those of the three judges on the panel that approved his inquiry's expansion. And she said Ms endorsed the wider probe "because she doesn't want to appear as though she's interfering with an investigation. The attorney general has declined to discuss her deliberations.

Once again, the first lady found herself at the center of the most public of storms while confronting the most intimate of within the family home, the White House, with a 21-year-old intern. Just as she responded in the case of Flowers, Hillary Clinton never hesitated last week, associates of the first lady said. She rushed to her husband's defense while his longtime aides hung old Clinton loyalists, rallying them to his defense while bypassing the president's political strategists in the West Wing of the White House. Hillary Clinton consulted with the president's lawyers. Within the White House, she urged staff members to stay at their tasks. One associate said that she was " Clintons expressed concern about the first lady's role in managing the crisis. One former aide who is very familiar with Hillary Clinton's approach to past scandals said sympathetically that her "first instincts are to put up the sandbags. " But in such situations, he said, "it's better to be forthright." Mandy Grunwald, a former media strategist for the Clintons, said that while Hillary Clinton believes her husband was not involved with the intern, she knows that he was unfaithful in the past. But, she said, "I think she loves him the way saying Poor Hillary, poor Hillary, " adding, "Hillary's just fine. " After six years as a national figure, Hillary Clinton remains a puzzle to her critics and her supporters, her public image shifting as swiftly as her hairstyle. She is an anti-war organizer who focus on public figures leaves them "hollowed out.

"She's done it time and time again, " this I hope it doesn't come up dry for her. " "You know, I wouldn't say that it's not hard, " Hillary Clinton calmly told reporters Wednesday as the story broke, "because it is difficult and painful any time someone you care about, you love and you gosh, more than six years, and I have seen how these charges and accusations evaporate and disappear if they're ever given the light of day. " Hillary Clinton always has been aggressive in rejecting such accusations, at times even more so than their target, her husband. When tales of womanizing by time, throughout the rest of the campaign, that was sort of the tactic that she adopted. 11 After Flowers held a news conference to announce her affair with Clinton, Hillary Clinton told her husband it was time to tackle the issue head-on, former campaign aides said. But, at least Clinton interrupted, repeating that phrase twice more. "You're looking at two people who love each other." Hillary Clinton added: "You know, I'm not sitting here as some little woman standing by my man like Tammy Wynette don't vote for him. 11 Another scandal accusations that Clinton had dodged the draft broke just days later. Once again, Hillary Clinton helped rally dispirited aides, a role she would play again and again. Ann Lewis, a longtime friend of the first lady who is the White House communications director, said Hillary Clinton played that role for her Thursday in a telephone conversation.
