Oh, I know...the Gonzalez trial is so two weeks ago but lookie here:
So who put the names on the list?
"Alberto Gonzales may claim that he doesn't know, but the Washington Post is getting ever closer to an answer: As the paper reports this morning, five of the 12 U.S. attorneys who were fired or targeted for firing last year were the subjects of complaints by GOP officials who charged that the prosecutors were insufficiently aggressive in prosecuting voter-fraud cases against Democrats.
Anyone in particular?
Why, yes. The Post says that testimony and documents show that Karl Rove, "in particular," was "preoccupied with pressing Gonzales and his aides about alleged voting problems in a handful of battleground states" in the run-up to last year's midterm elections."

Even if this doesn't result in a firing or a resignation or an indictment, the combination of corruption, scandals and loss at the poll has diminished Karl Rove from the genius of the GOP to a blot on the Republican Party.
