Think Progress summarizes an MSNBC report (with a link to the video) that adds more fuel to the speculation that Karl Rove will soon be indicted. There's not much new to TalkLeft readers in the report (TalkLeft covered some of this ground here and here), but this tidbit, while perhaps entitled to little weight (the past is not always a reliable predictor of the future), is intriguing:

[W]e've known for months that in the Scooter Libby indictment when they refer to Official A, Official A is Karl Rove. ... But we've looked at prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald's record as far as designating people as Official A or Official B, and in every single case we have found, Keith, that prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald when he designates somebody as Official A in an indictment, that person eventually does get indicted themselves.

Crooks and Liars also has the video and a transcript.

Update (TL): We wrote about Fitz always going for the top dog here and his pattern with respect to Official A's in his indictments, such as in the case of Ill. Gov. George Ryan here.
