THE NEXT STEP BY THE WHITEHOUSE...

SWIFTBOAT FITZGERALD!

However, Frank Luntz, Republican pollster and strategist. said: “If [Fitzgerald] indicts, they [the White House] will have no choice but to attempt to demonise him. I think that is going to be really, really tough.” LINK


CARLSON: He should have done this a long time ago. I think this White House made a tactical error. Maybe not a moral error, maybe the White House did the right thing, but I think politically they did very much the wrong thing by saying nice things about Patrick Fitzgerald some months ago. He‘s a man of integrity, he‘s a good guy, you know, we have completely confidence he‘s going to do the right thing, et cetera, et cetera, making it now almost impossible for the White House, even on background, to attack the guy. And who knows, we‘ll find out in a couple of days, but it‘s possible that attacks on him are unwarranted. Maybe he‘s doing the wrong thing. But they can hardly say that at this point.
So I don‘t know what they do, other than accept the resignations of those who are implicated in whatever he submits this week, and sort of apologize and move on. But I think they should—at least have kept the option open to attack him, and I just don‘t see that they have that. LINK
