"Berger has known for months that he was in potential jeopardy. Breuer was hired in October, and in January former White House press secretary Joe Lockhart was enlisted to remain on standby if a public controversy blossomed. But Berger allies said he did not inform Kerry because he had resolved to work privately with Justice Department officials, and received assurances that these officials would treat the matter confidentially."

Or rather he wanted to make it big with the Kerry campaign, and if they had known that he was under investigation by the DOJ they would have shunned him like a leper.

He inadvertantly got a press secretary?

Lockhart was involved? Now he wouldn't talk with any reporters or editors, would he? I mean, he probably doesn't know many of them anyway. I forget, what was his position in the Clinton administration? Tehehehehe.
