Republicans pushed for Ken Starr over partisan concerns.

Session was accused of not being impartial because he would be a potential subject of the investigation.

The Whitewater investigation was opened by Clinton. Reno appointed a special counsel because it was investigating the chief executive and Ken Starr eventually replaced the first counsel because the courts decided the original special prosecutor was not impartial enough.

Partisan politics may tell us WHY some wanted these investigations to occur, but it isn't the reason why a special counsel was brought in. So, why would this case require a special counsel? What conflict of interest exists?
