BREAKING NEWS: Another Republican Drops Rove!

From about 8:56 PM on PBS Now, Brancaccio asks Rove should he stay or should he go?

Whitman SAYS! (video here official video and transcripts to come):

Interesting question!

Seems to me when you said his wife is CIA, you are kind of pushing people in one direction.
...
He may decide that he should step down on his own. Because this is gonna become a real issue for the President. Because the president said he would fire anyone who had leaked.

And while Karl may not have actually leaked the name, he appears to have led everyone to her.

So I think it depends on how much legs it gets, and it looks as if it's not gonna get away.

TIVO unofficial transcript.

YOU HEAR THAT PRESS PEOPLE JOURNALISMISTS AT LARGE. IT NEEDS LEGS!!! NOT ANONYMOUS SOURCES!

UPDATE: Video link broken! Thanks Ralph!

Also: This is a quote from a Frontline Interview with Whitman not so long ago!



UPDATE 2:

OK in the original flury of getting the story out I didn't quite make the political implications clear enough.

SO Forrester (current republican running against Senator John Corzine for Governor of NJ) has Rove money. Forrester also would like to get an endorsement from as many home state republicans as possible. An old Governor would look pretty good ei?

So Whitman a moderate (hey I don't like her) Republican in quotes, Which served a couple of terms as Governor. She can't hug Forrester if he has her previously denounced Rove money can she?
