That may well be, but I don't see a lot of happiness even from moonbats about this case, ever since Armitage story came out and it became painfully obvious that there was no "conspiracy" and that Fitzerald's game was from the beginning an attempt to entrap WH officials for political purposes and that he had to justify his witchhunt by indicting someone he personally had a grudge against from previous legal defeat...

If you told them from the get-go that Plamegate would end in Libby "perjury" trial and that lies of Joe and Valerie Wilson about mission to Niger would be exposed, that except for few in media (MSNBC, AP, Reuters) who still keep perpetuating the myth of Cheney "conspiracy" and "outing" by repeating misleading statements about the nature of the Plamegate using "allegedly" and "accused of" and "investigated", they certainly hoped for a lot more... and most may have conscience pangs about sending unquestionably innocent man to jail for a "crime" that was not there... especially, not one of the dreaded "neocons", just a lawyer, really.

In other words, many on that side, who are not hopelessly brain-dead, feel betrayed and by now just as enraged by breathless hype in the media and left-wing DU types and by Fitz's unadulterated partisanship that fueled this stupid thing into a "crisis", that they feel backfired on them instead of delivering some tangible political benefits.

They got far more political "wind" from Katrina in far less time than they got from plamegate and Fitzgerald.

I agree that the Plame thing turned out to be a big disappointment for Bush haters, but remember that Leftist myths never die. They just go into perpetual syndicated reruns on ABC and MSNBC.
