Who Will Be Bush 43's John Dean?

As Waxman and Conyers continue to roll out the evidence in the wake of the Libby convictions, who within the Executive Office of the President has come to the realization that s/he will be made a sacrificial lamb?

Put another way, which senior White House staffer has John Dean's books sitting on his/her nightstand right now?

1. Most likely no one or maybe if there is one it'll be someone thats not well
known outside of DC.

I tend to think no one at this point.

2. Colin Powell
If I had to bet that someone is currently writing a book that will be unspinnable by conservatives of all three stripes.

6. The neocons mobilized the chess pieces so carefully,...
,...and are known to be precisely vengeful that, I can not think of one player with the courage to be a "John Dean",...not one.

7. Barney

Since he's the only one left who Shrub will listen to.

Seriously? Not a clue. I think it would have to be someone outside of the White House. Maybe an ex-Senator like Dole?

18. I've long thought it would be fun to get Barney in the same room with a pet pyshic
and find out what he has to say.

13. It could be someone not
political at all. Maybe some corporate leaders, he is their President after all.
