Last Best Guesses

In eight hours or so (or not) we will know (1) what special prosecutor Fitzgerald is going to do and/or (2) who won the third game of the World Series or (3) one of these or (4) neither.Here's my prediction (not about the game, except that it probably will end, someday, possibly before the 4th game starts.)

Fitzgerald will issue four sealed indictments, and will continue his investigation with a new grand jury. Rove and Libby will be told they are among the four, but this will not be announced to the public. In fairly short order, Rove and Libby will announce they are resigning and leaving the White House to spend more time with their lawyers.

In justifying further investigation, Fitzgerald will mention leads that point to vice president Cheney. While Fitzgerald quietly investigates, Cheney will resign and leave the White House to spend more time with his money.In a couple of years Fitzgerald will indict Cheney, but there will be no trial because on his last day of office, Bush will pardon him.

Bush will then leave the White House to become the new CEO of Halliburton, but will mostly be at his ranch where he will spend more time with his brush.
