the investigation was "inactive". He didn't say it was "over". I'm sure he is exponentially more disappointed with the outcome than any of us could ever be. Imagine the frustration of knowing one person is holding up an investigation that consumed two years of your life, along with the lives and careers of scores of others.

Please take a look at Patrick Fitzgerald's career in Chicago, namely the Ryan case. I believe 66 different people were indicted, including the former governor of Illinois. He starts at the bottom, and works his way up. In this case, Libby's refusal to flip and start talking is stymying him. We'll see if Scooter is still so -- resistant-- if he's immediately remanded to jail during his sentencing on June 5th.
