“Twist slowly in the wind”

So Scooter gets it, while Rove remains on Fitzgerald’s clock, in Fitz, Round I. Apparently Rove didn’t listen to the advice and warnings of Mark Corallo about Fitz’s toughness and integrity when he allegedly turned down a plea bargain to cop to one count of perjury.

Instead, riffing on Nixon’s comment about FBI Director L. Patrick Gray, he’s left to “twist slowly in the wind.” Of course, nobody else is doing this to Rove. He hoist himself by his own petard.

Update
Assuming Raw Story is correct, that’s indeed what’s happening as we speak. Surely, the public announcement of this turns the heat under Rove’s boiling pot even higher.

The fact that Fitz could be looking at civil rights violations, as well, means that this has entered a whole new dimension.

And something tells me that Fitz will be once scorned, twice shy, on cutting Rove any deals.
