Fingers crossed. If it's Cheney, Fitz will take him down.


Some folks are saying it's Hadley. Who knows. Wapo says that if somebody discovers who it really is, they'll confirm. Why don't they just say so now? Downie must know for sure who it is.

Meantime, I'm kinda with Towse - I don't think Cheney would be dumb enough to personally let loose to a reporter. I think he KNEW she was classified, even if she wasn't covert. He'd let other folks leak the info.

The part that knocks me for a loop was Woodward, in that interview with Larry King that I watched, calling down Fitz as a "junkyard dog prosecutor", saying the whole investigation would come to nothing. Even as he said it, Woodward was hiding the fact that he'd been a part of it from the get-go. What a hypocrit. The whole thing stinks.
