Is Gannon the one being blackmailed?
Has anyone considered that Rove hand picked Gannon to be their press room patsy? Maybe Rove met him on a "date", slipped him a mickey and, next thing you know, he wakes up in a sub-basement of the Whitehorse with a pad of paper, pen and a lap-top.

Sort of a "Pretty Woman" meets "La Femme Nikita" meets "MANchurian Candidate".

2. I think it's the other way around..
Gannon threatened to spill the beans unless he got a cushy WH press pass.

3. He's definitely "their" fall guy!
Anything or anyone to take the blame away from their President! Or to get the media off the subject of Privatized SS, Budget, bad ratings, etc.

5. you mean he's the fall guy for Plamegate?
and another backhanded strike against the immoral gay community, loaded as it is with married two timing male prostitutes?

gosh, I woulda never guessed.

I do believe he is a red herring. If you want to figure out what the administration is covering up, just look 180 degrees away from Gannon . . . (briefly)

6. Perhaps Gannon is the fall guy, but I think it may backfire on the WH
I have my fingers crossed that it does anyway.
