Rove story up next

CNN, Lou Dobbs next...
...nothing yet on the Newshour...still awaiting evening networks broadcasts...

Well, other than the Gergen meltdown on CNN, the evening news net broadcasts pretty thoroughly hammered the WH over their initial lies and denials over Rove's involvement. My sense is that unfortunately this story may rise and fall on whether Rove did something illegal which is hard to prove right now. However, the obsession by the press over this sort of legal hairsplitting is exactly what was missing during the Clinton years. It's odd to say the least, that when the issue is our national security, the press amplifies and explains such distinctions as what the meaning of "name" is.
