""He is seen by people in the department as a career guy, not a person with a political axe to grind," said Eric H. Holder Jr., who was deputy attorney general in the Clinton administration and is now a partner at Covington & Burling LLP in the District.
Holder said Comey demonstrated his independence by appointing aggressive Chicago prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald, a longtime friend, to probe the politically sensitive leak of CIA agent Valerie Plame's identity."

Comey's now trumpeting his buddy as the best there is for Attorney General for God forbid Shrillery, while the Janet Reno-neutered Eric Holder is also chiming in his support.
~~~~~~
They think we're THIS stupid???!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~
IMO, Comey's ticked off at the Bush team and the WH, probably wanted to succeed Ashcroft, and poisoned the well of justice by giving his buddy a free prosecutorial ride. He knew Fitzgerald when they were law students and shared a summer house in Spring Lake, New Jersey.
Comey

Acknowledging that Fitzgerald is a close friend, Comey described the Chicago prosecutor as "one of the finest federal prosecutors there is...maybe has ever been."

They make me sick.
Comey ~ Fitz .. PING!
Exactly. This scumbag Comey has been a stealth Clintonite from the beginning. Kudos to the Bush Administration for ferreting the p.o.s. out and unloading him fairly quickly, but shame on them for hiring him in the first place. He's like a scab that falls off and keeps coming back.
Eric Holder is DIRTY, so if he is vouching for Comey, he must be DIRTY too!! Clintonoids arwe ALL DIRTY! Bank on it!
