Looks like Bush will be in a dilly of a pickle. He will either have to denouce and fire Rove, or it will be apparent he approved of the dirty tricks himself. He better not cancel his Austin newspaper subscription just yet. TP (I expect them to find a loyal to a fault small time campaign worker to try and take the fall, the e-mails better add up before they try stunts)

Bush's Communications Director Karen Hughes' remarks spawned, for me, a whole new line of thought as to what the Bush campaign might ultimately want to accomplish by sending mock Bush debate tapes to the Democrats. Could it be possible they concocted the incident so as to get the FBI involved with reading Gore campaign emails? Lord knows, we saw how one thing, warranted or not, jumped to another during the whole Whitewater matter. Although highly speculative thinking, but since this thread is replete with conspiracy theories anyway, how 'bout this one folks: What of the possibility that Bush strategists intentionally devised a means by which the FBI could get its nose into Gore's inner sanctum (email and whatnot) so as to enable the Republican mole who works in the FBI (presuming there is one) to then feed the Bush campaign with attack information which would be helpful in defeating Gore. Remember, when all this happened, Bush was falling further behind in the polls. Indeed, at a minimum, it was the Republicans who needed a distraction at this crucial time in poll-taking. Anyone else got a whopper of a theory--LOL?
