HeadlineOct 27, 2005

Rumors continue to fly in Washington over whether any top White House officials will be forced to resign this week for their involvement in the outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame. On Wednesday special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald presented a summary of his case to the grand jury which could hand down indictments today or tomorrow. According to the Washington Post, Karl Rove’s legal team has been engaged in a furious effort to convince Fitzgerald that Rove did not commit perjury. If indicted, Rove will mostly likely be forced to step down.
