Is today the luckiest day for Don Siegelman? Will his political

[midnight]

prosecution come to a close today? Good luck to you and your family Mr. Siegelman. Almost from the start, there has been evidence that the prosecution of Siegelman was politically motivated. Among other things, documents recently surfaced showing that the US Attorney on the case, Leura Canary -- who had recused herself because her husband is a GOP operative and Karl Rove associate who ran the campaign of Siegelman's opponent for governor -- continued to advise prosecutors on the case. DOJ has been notably unwilling to aggressively look into this and other evidence of politicization.

6. I can't believe how long this has taken to get to this point.

Will we ever get down to the extent of who was involved?

7. Bush's DOJ makes me sick. I'm thrilled that Siegelman could possibly be freed of this

atrocity, but look at the timing -- way, way overdue, & right before the dirt gets swept out of the WH.

Not known for generosity & compassion for Democrats, is this move by the DOJ meant to prevent further investigations into what happened to Siegelman? I want Rove to get everything that's coming to him.
