"Then you and the Judge are the only two that think the trial is going "well for Libby"!

Libby and Cheney Won’t Testify, Lawyers Say
By NEIL A. LEWIS and SCOTT SHANE
WASHINGTON, Feb. 13 — Lawyers defending I. Lewis Libby Jr. against perjury charges surprised the courtroom today by saying that they would rest their case this week and do so without putting on the stand either Mr. Libby or Vice President Dick Cheney.
Mr. Libby was Mr. Cheney’s chief of staff.
The decision means that Mr. Libby’s defense, which will formally end on Wednesday, will have spanned barely three days. Mr. Libby’s chief defense lawyer, Theodore V. Wells Jr., told Judge Reggie B. Walton that Mr. Libby had accepted the defense team’s recommendation to end their presentation swiftly and send the case to the jury by next week.
The decision could be viewed as a sign that Mr. Libby’s lawyers are confident the prosecution has failed to make its case.

I'm pulling for Libby, his lawyers...and you to be right! I'm still not making bets...it's a Washington DC jury, and DC re-elected mayor Marion Barry.
I'm a left coastie too - they're weird back there!
