that is why Fitz put so much into this particular case.

I think Fitz knew when the indictments came down that he couldn't get anyone but Scooter -- and then only for procedural crimes. He has nothing on the substantive issues that triggered the investigation.

That's why I believe these verdicts really won't hurt the Administration very much, and won't affect the 2008 elections at all. The convictions are peculiar to Libby and can't really be tied to anyone else.

Fitz put so much into this case because that's all he had and to come up completely empty-handed would have been humiliating.

Fitz already said he's not going anywhere else. It's over.

But that does Libby no good.

Facing a possible thirty years for procedural crimes? Murders serve less on average than that!
