Hope you'll allow me to vacillate on a possible Gonzales resignation. Gonzales can't resign over his involvement in the firing of U.S. Attorneys for political reasons. It sets a precedent that anyone involved should resign. We know the White House was involved in the decisions, but we don't know how high up the decisions reached within the White House. Gonzales can't go, because that would mean Rove should go, too, and who knows how many others?
Bush has to stand by Gonzales to the end, because a crack in that wall will endanger the deepest realms of the White House.
