Yeah, we'll bitch, complain, blog, and voice our discontent, the talking heads on the cable news will kick the story back and forth until Wednesday, when it will get swept off the front pages by Turkey Day, the Cowboys, the 49ers and Black Friday...Wilson will do his media rounds and then vanish without a trace to live out his life in comfortable (and likely paranoid) solitude ala Zimmerman...
Then everyone will be talking about Christmas shopping/travel, the College Bowl games, the new congress being sworn in and the public will by-and-large forget about the whole thing and it will be forgotten about until the next one of us gets gunned down by a cop or neighborhood vigilante, and the whole cycle will begin anew...
