The Political Forecast--Online Magazine: Rove story hits WaPo front page tomorrow

The fact is though, if Rove wanted to prove his innocence so quickly why didn't he just say something in the first place instead of hiding behind Luskin and waiting a year and a half to start admitting something after investigative reporting has revealed all of this. (Well, that and Cooper and Time releasing the notes of Cooper's meeting with Rove)

Obviously Rove couldn't run W's political campaign if he were busy defending himself against treason. Treason is a serious assertion, but nitpicking about whether he used "Plane's name" doesn't constitute innocence. if he speaks to an investigative reporter in the first place, he's hoping they'll "connect the dots"..

Rove understood political pragmatism,
Rove understood W's campaign would have been stillborn without him.
Rove was silent because the system could be worked and delayed, til W won term 2.

DOH!
