\nFAKE REVERSE
\n<\/B>
\n


\nWith Alito, Rove stole back the lead story for the week, although his palpable RELIEF has caused even loyalists to cry out for “apology.” And Fitzgerald is [hopefully] playing with a full deck for the long haul. Rove still has a TON of outrage fatigue to play on with progressives: most of us feel resigned that Scooter will just go the way of Cap [Weinberger]. That’s one move 43 will DEFINITELY cop from 41. Still, you gotta hand it to this
\nReid
\n<\/A> guy, stealing a page out of &*#$^^%*(#$ [Prince]’s book: interception! There is chatter about “unraveling,” but these guys don’t loosen their grip on power… they SQUEEZE. So at the Republican convention in 2008, gridlocked between Schwarzenegger and Romney, Rove will broker the backroom deal to install Jeb, and the body bags won’t stop.

\nUNANSWERED QUESTIONS
\n<\/B>

How did outing Plame smear Wilson exactly? Simple nepotism? From Bush? Sexism, because she got him the Niger gig? How does any of this effect his mission, what he learned, what his editorial said, anything substantive about his charges? Hoi polloi lost in forest of detail, stumped by inter-agency rivalry angle.
