Hard to say what will happen at this point. His popularity is plunging on a daily basis, it’s very possible that his disaffected supporters will want him out out out.
The BC issue would give them a legal and Constitutional way to peacefully remove him from office.
Not a pretty way, to be sure, but the alternatives are much worse.
I have a feeling next week some drastic revelation will be presented!!
A RAT & snake has jumped off the sinking "ship". From Wikipedia, hmmm:>>>On Thursday, June 2, 2011, the White House Press Office stated that Bauer would be returning to private practice at Perkins Cole, and that Principal Deputy Counsel to the President Kathryn Ruemmler (his deputy, in that office since January of 2010 and before that since January 2009 as Principal Associate Deputy U.S. Attorney General) would succeed him. The position, because it is part of the Executive Office staff that personally advises the President and is not an agency or Cabinet department or military head, does not require Senate confirmation despite the prominence of the office. She will take over at the end of June 2011. Bauer will return to private practice, where he once again will represent the president’s election team and the Democratic National Committee. “Bob was a critical member of the White House team,” Mr. Obama said. “He has exceptional judgment, wisdom and intellect, and he will continue to be one of my close advisers.”!!!
