Kerik is coming

The AP talks about the inevitable arrival of Bernie Kerik as an albatross around Giuliani's neck.
Kerik is expected to confront the results of the investigation as early as next month — and it's widely believed he will either be indicted or reach a plea agreement with prosecutors.

Should prosecutors charge Kerik and the case reach trial, Giuliani could end up being called to testify during the general election campaign. Should Kerik agree to a plea deal, he could be admitting guilt on some level for activities that may have taken place while the city employed him — and on Giuliani's watch.


And, perhaps my favorite quote of the week,
"I made a mistake in recommending Bernie Kerik to the president," Giuliani says often, adding that he should have more thoroughly vetted his associate of nearly two decades.

Yeah, it's always a surprise when a mobbed up associate who has been under various investigations for a decade isn't vetted.
