From Holden:
Doesn’t anyone at the White House read First Draft? I keep telling you guys that it’s not such a great idea to have the senior assministration official facing a possible felony indictment devising your strategy for how to deal with the story of a senior assministration official facing a possible felony indictment.
That “knock it off the front page” strategy is not working, as this is the headline I woke up to on the front page of my local paper this morning.
CIA Operative’s Identity Was Secret, Memo Says.
The story is not just on the front page (where it belongs) but it also deflates your “she wasn’t covert/Karl did not know she was covert” talking point, which of course was written by Rove himself.
