Prediction: Repuke Reaction to Indictments
I predict that once the indictments come down, the Republicans are going to adopt the "innocent until proven guilty" mantra that they so despise when it comes to anyone BUT one of them. It's going to be so funny to hear Sean Shammity reciting those words, when he so adamantly declares the guilt of others who are in legal trouble the minute they are even suspected (e.g., Michael Schiavo, Michael Jackson, etc.).

1. If they're smart they will.
Sounds a hell of a lot better than "criminilizing politics" in reference to a guy under indictment.

They were so quick to talk about not playing the "blame game" during Katrina, they'll probably call it the "conviction game" this time around.

5. Three words you haven't heard from a Repuke since 12/12/2000
"Rule of Law" . . .

the Counter-spin is in full force already. Hannity is chanting his mantra of "it's just perjury and obstruction - not treason".

They're also claiming "everybody knew she was with the CIA" -

and "It was Justice Politics (to out a CIA Agent), but not illegal because it didn't benefit a Foreign Power as required by the 1982 statute" Nevermind the fact that we aren't really fighting "Foreign Powers" in the GWOT.
