Plame Gossip - Rove indictment this week?

Jason's been pretty good on this, breaking story after story. Here's what he put up Saturday on Counterpunch(who once published one of my articles by the way.)

Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald met with the grand jury investigating the leak of covert CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson for several hours Friday. Short of a last minute intervention by Rove's attorney, Fitzgerald is expected to ask a grand jury-possibly as soon as next week--the to indict Rove for making false statements to the FBI and Justice Department investigators in October 2003, lawyers close to the case say.

Moreover, Fitzgerald is said to believe that there is a possibility Rove either hid or destroyed evidence related to his role in the leak, lawyers close to the case said.

Will Rove get the Hot Karl by Christmas? (Don't look it up. If you don't know, be thankful.)

And what would that mean to this wobbly administration faced with so many problems? Will the vultures swoop? Will this lead to the Dems taking the House or Senate? So many questions, and all the answers are bad for this President.
