Karl Rove and Fitzgerald's Timing
MSNBC reporter David Shuster said on Hardball tonight. Crooks and Liars has the video:
Rove's legal team and former prosecutors tracking the investigation expect Patrick Fitzgerald to announce a decision at any time.
Rove's legal team tells me differently. Rove spokesman Mark Corallo told me a few minutes ago that as they have been saying for weeks, the timing is still unknown and there is nothing new to suggest it will be tomorrow or even this week. In fact, "we have no expectation on timing anymore. "
Rove's lawyer, Robert Luskin, earlier today confirmed to me that "there has never been any discussion of any plea under any circumstances whatsoever." He added, "as a defense lawyer, you'll understand that if a prosecutor hasn't figured out whether or not he thinks a charge is appropriate, plea discussions are a bit premature."
