Over the weekend, Jason Leopold at truthout.org reported that Karl Rove was going to be indicted today. If by “indicted,” Leopold meant “speaking at the American Enterprise Institute,” he got the story exactly right. If by “indicted” Leopold meant “charged with a criminal offense,” he was wrong on a few of the details, as Byron York noted last night.

Today, the indispensable Seixon has done some investigating and produced some interesting theories about Leopold’s sources. Short answer? The “Wilsonistas”: People like Larry Johnson, Ray McGovern and, of course, Joe Wilson, who have been trying to indict Rove in the press for months now. As Seixon points out, Leopold himself has been predicting Rove’s imminent indictment since October.

Patrick Fitzgerald might or might not indict Karl Rove soon. But if he does, Leopold will only be right in the sense that a broken clock is right twice a day: He always says the same thing.
