Rover Goin' Down

RawStory has some outstanding inside dope on Plamegate. Boy, talk about dishonor among thieves. Karl Rove is in the hot seat and may not pull the G. Gordon Liddy bit.

Two things are clear, the sources said: either Rove will agree to enter into a plea deal with Fitzgerald or he will be charged with a crime, but he will not be exonerated for the role he played in the leak.

If Rove does agree to a plea, Fitzgerald is not expected to discuss any aspect of his probe into the President’s senior adviser because Rove may be called to testify as a prosecution witness against I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, the former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney. Libby was indicted last month on five counts of lying to investigators, perjury and obstruction of justice related to his role in the leak.

So will it be Liddy vs. Rove?
