I'm amazed that they think Rove is more important than the Supreme Court.
The funny thing is if this whole Rove thing turns out to have been a setup helped along by Rove as a deliberate issue to allow SOTUS nominees to get some breathing room.
I would not put it past Bush and Rove to have set all this up from the beginning.
"In 5 weeks there may be no bush White House left. THAT is what we must concentrate on now."
So what does THAT tell you? They were trying to use the Rove issue to push impeachment proceedings, maybe? They definitely got Bushwhacked this time. (I wouldn't doubt it if Rove even played a part...going in as a 'sacrificial lamb' of sorts...but I am only able to say that in hindsight myself.)
Clearly their heads are spinning tonight. They don't know how to get out of the Rovian Maze in which they now find themselves. Should they vote yea or nay on Roberts? Shall they try to rekindle the embers of the Plame naming game flame? How can they even get back on track when they've been broadsided by the Bush-Rove Express?
