Every time I think of Fitzgerald pinning that slimey Rove, all I can think of is the Mamet movie.

2. I just really have my fingers crossed that he gets more than perjury
A couple of perjury charges on some lower officials and the whole mess goes away is my biggest fear (not meaning to be a pessimist or buzz-kill or anything). I've seen it happen before, BCCI comes to mind.

4. Oh no you didn't

No you did not cast De Niro as Rove, oh no you didn't.

Now, Costner as Fitz, that one I can go along with, happily in fact! :-)

Edit to add:

And Connery as Wilson, works for me

Let's get DeNiro out of there and let Philip Seymour Hoffman do Rove

5. I didn't like to see DeNiro was Rove either,
but I was going by looks (he definitely does not like like pasty Karl Rove :-).) He is a very good actor and would play the part of the villain perfectly.

8. He's not casting anyone. He's comparing The Untouchables with...
the current situation.

9. I know, I know, I know
But... juxtaposing Rove and DeNiro just completely offended my sensibilities! I couldn't take it!!

10. That's not the casting - it's the movie parallel!
