First thoughts re: Roberts
dkospedia has some early intel on Roberts, and it ain't encouraging.
This would be VERY high stakes poker, but what if they threw a war and nobody came? What if the Dems decided to hold their fire?
Paradoxically, avoiding the obvious lightning rods could backfire on The Architect. The submarine nominee strategy would fail to stir up a shitstorm, and thus fail to push Plamegate off the front page.
If they had gone for Janice Rogers Brown, (my incorrect prediction), Gonzo or another prime target, the resulting crossfire might have been a better distraction. If, on the other hand, Roberts sails through, Karl's wind-twisting stays on the front burner.
