As the bad news for the Administration continues to unfold over the next several months (continuing trouble in Iraq as we approach 1 July, a passel of new books that they won’t be able to stand any more than they could stand Richard Clarke’s, the 9\/11 Commission Report, as well as fallout from the widening investigations of the outrageous and still under-reported Medicaire hoax and the growing Plame outing scandal) someone is gonna have to take a fall or two for Bush’s re-select chances to survive. <\/p>\n
Thus, I offer my stunning prediction that at least two of the following will not be a part of the Administration by the time we get to November 2nd. CYA Mitigator — While I believe at least two of them will actually resign, the worst case scenario is that instead of actually resigning they will announce *ahead* of the election that they will not be serving in a second Bush term:<\/p>\n
(Listed in order of likelihood that they’ll be gone – sez me)
\nGeorge Tenet
\nRichard Foster
\nDick Cheney
\nKarl Rove
\nPaul Wolfowitz
\nCondoleezza Rice
\nColin Powell<\/p>\n
