"Alberto Gonzales was never the right man for this job. He lacked independence, he lacked judgment, and he lacked the spine to say no to Karl Rove," said Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), referring to the belief among many Democrats that political strategist Rove engineered the ouster of the U.S. attorneys to make room for appointees more loyal to Bush.
"This resignation is not the end of the story. Congress must get to the bottom of this mess and follow the facts where they lead, into the White House."
Harry Reid has got the scent now baby!
He is going to track Gonzales to the end of the earth, or Crawford Texas, which ever one is closer.
By the way Chertoff is not going to be the guy named. The two confirmation hearings, one for Attorney General and the other for Homeland Security head, would use up all of time that is left to this administration.
Harriet Meirs is not a possibility for the same reason.
In my opinion it would have to be somebody that nobody has even heard of, somebody that would just offer too small of a battle for the Senate to worry about. After all they have bigger fish to fry.
"Shhh, be vewy, vewy quiet. The Senate is going Rove hunting! Heh heh heh heh!" (This is more fun if you imagine it in the voice of Elmer Fudd.)
voice of Elmer Fudd...oh my...
