I specifically recall hearing Gen. Sanchez state the capture of Saddam was a result of intelligence - maybe that means a tip received during interrogation of someone captured in Tikrit Saturday.

Well, if the intel was obtained from interogation, then the $25 million would be saved.

Hey, that's a nice Christmas present for the American people: $.25 per person saved by not having to pay the reward.... hehehe

....the capture of Saddam was a result of intelligence..... -

He also said it was a brilliant piece of analytical work....or something to that effect.

Someone figured it out and made those on site keep looking.

I suspect there was a drone looking at the place.

Also, the site was Adwar near Tikrit.Wasn't this the place they cordoned off weeks ago with razorwire and required passes in and out?

My guess is that the intel guys have been looking at this place with a literal magnifying glass etc for some time now.
