Indictments probably won't come down tomorrow...
According to TalkLeft:


Plame Grand Jury Still Meeting

NBC Reporter David Schuster just said on Hardball that the grand jury will be meeting two more days this week and maybe into next week. Since any indictments won't be public until they are done, it doesn't look like tomorrow is the day.

If there are last minute plea deals, the details will be contained in written plea agreements. For any deals that involve reduced charges from those the grand jury might otherwise indict on, Fitzgerald will want the deals iron-clad and signed before releasing this grand jury. If a deal falls through, he'll need to have the grand jury still in session to issue a last minute indictment.

Also, the grand jury could still be hearing evidence from officials who are making last minute deals.

1. I hear the grand jury is meeting only on Wednesdays and Fridays
Not sure where I got that info, so I can't back it up.

Bottom line, though, good things are worth waiting for.

Patience, friends.....

:)

2. My guess is the GJ still has a lot of work to do in little time.
A lot of new info has just surfaced, remember. I bet Fitz is far from out of questions.

4. Agre - Fitz is letting them twist in the wind a little more

- but that gives more time for deal making possibly letting the biggest fish swim away.

Question - can Fitz indict some - and then more next week or so? That could make it VERY interestin.
