Fitzgerald's agents also visited the Wilson's neighbors Monday, asking them whether they were aware that Valerie was a covert CIA agent, according to the L.A. Times and the Associated Press.

From this Drudge story ("CIA leak investigators hold last-minute interviews"):

Two lawyers involved in the case said such questioning could indicated (sic) that prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald intended to charge administration officials for the leak itself, in addition to possible charges for easier-to-prove crimes like perjury and obstruction of justice.

How questioning of Plame's neighbors could lead to a conclusion like that is beyond me, except for the lawyers hoping for such an outcome and passing it on to a sympathetic reporter who himself believes all the hype ("so it just must be true!") and reports it.

I think something has created a problem for Fritz. This should have been done two years ago, so something's not working for Fritz. Sounds like he's wrestling.
