		McDougal dismisses these explanations as fanciful: Her relationship with Hillary Clinton was chilly from the start, and she hadn't seen Bill Clinton since the mid-1980s.
		Whatever one may think about the rationality of that decision, it is clear that Susan McDougal believed that the investigation was a "witch hunt" that would ensnare her one way or another.
