Poll question: Will "Scooter" cut a DEAL to shift blame to VP Dick?
(Now that things have settled down a bit, I'm creating the official version of an un-official poll I posted when the Poll feature was disabled, I hope that's O.K. If you want to see the original replies from earlier when we were in the Level 3 and 4 status, click the link below.)

Do you think "Scooter" will cut a deal with prosecutors to avoid Prison or to reduce the sentence of up to 30 years in Prison.

I say Yes, he'll be singing like a bird. But I'd rather say LOCK 'EM UP!

1. He won't for the same reasons Ollie North et al took the fall for Reagan
A twisted sense of loyal/devotion.

2. No...for the obscene amount of money Mr. Halliburton can throw
at him he'll do five years in the Stony Lonesome grinnin' all the way.

3. Scooter doesn't want to star in a remake of Deliverance.
I think he'll squeal now rather than later.

Plus, Ollie North isn't rolling in Repuke dough anymore.

4. No.

And it's not because he has any integrity at all. I say "no" because he has already been told that * will pardon him and that after he resigns he can have a cushy job as a lobbyist where he will be able to dig his snout deeper into the public trough.

Edit:Laelth--typos.

6. Splitting the NOs? It's like a Fox poll.
Or a CIA-rigged election.

7. "too much integrity"??? In what alternate Universe?
He won't squeal because (a) he'll be handsomely paid to toe the line and (b) he doesn't want to be 'suicided' due to despair after the 'accidental' death of some loved one(s).

9. I know, It's hard to believe anyone here would vote for that choice here.
Maybe they voted that choice because it was so absurd, or maybe...
