Sleepless in DC?

I could be enjoying the DOJ FBI scandal all by itself, but the DOJ USA scandal just won't stop vying for my attention. The latest:

Presidential advisor Karl Rove and at least one other member of the White House political team were urged by the New Mexico Republican party chairman to fire the state's U.S. attorney because of dissatisfaction in part with his failure to indict Democrats in a voter fraud investigation in the battleground election state.

Huh. GOP politicos ask Rove to fire and US Attorney, and what do you know… he gets fired. The whole story makes all this look much worse (which is hard to believe, but all too true), so make sure to get the background. I can only hope that Gonzales is having trouble sleeping; he certainly should.

Via Atrios.
