If Holder is convicted or punished in any way while Obama is still in office he will be pardoned. If an investigation and prosecution occurs after Romney is elected a pardon is not possible. The leverage without a presidential pardon as a possibility should be terrifying to any and all corrupt members of this administration. It would actually be smart for Holder to give up everything now before the election so that he can get a pardon. It is interesting that he did not pursue the New Black Panthers but instead left that case open for a future trial.

I believe that if Obama grants a pardon for any and all acts carried out by Holder during Obama's first term, that would immunize Holder against any future prosecution. If Obama loses, I expect many prospective pardons.

If you think Holder is going to be indicted for anything by a republican administration (especially a RINO like Romney), you're smoking something. And I want some of it, because it's gotta be good stuff.
