Top White House aides are privately discussing the future of Karl Rove, with some expressing doubt that President Bush can move beyond the damaging CIA leak case as long as his closest political strategist remains in the administration.
If Rove stays, which colleagues say remains his intention, he may at a minimum have to issue a formal apology for misleading colleagues and the public about his role in conversations that led to the unmasking of CIA operative Valerie Plame, according to senior Republican sources familiar with White House deliberations.
Far more likely.... Rove will suddenly have to leave office for "personal reasons" or "health reasons", and will likely get the Presdiential Medal of Freedom from his boss on the way out the door (along with a quickie pardon if an indictment shows up further down the road) and he'll sail off into retirement scott free.
