I think entire makeup of the jury should be an appellate issue, as it goes directly to the "fair trial by jury of one's peers".
I understand change of venue had been denied by the judge, so his would be an accumulative appeal issue. Otherwise it's an issue of legalized corruption favoring one political class or group over others.

It's hard to win an appeal over venue change, but it ought to be considered here. Republicans are as rare as hen's teeth in D.C. From blabbermouth's comments, it's obvious several jurors wanted to sink their teeth into some administration officials much more senior than Libby.
