News of the day:

"White House Preparing for Rove Departure

From Time magazine: "Despite Karl Rove's flashes of ebullience in recent days and the insistence of friends that he is out of legal jeopardy, several of the most important lawyers who deal with special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald said they saw more clues last week that Fitzgerald is continuing to look into the possibility of charging Rove with lying to investigators or the grand jury or both."

If he's indicted, he'll have to leave immediately. And "if he leaves, he will not be alone. Several well-wired Administration officials predict that within a year, the President will have a new chief of staff and press secretary, probably a new Treasury Secretary and maybe a new Defense Secretary."

Newsweek implies Rove is in trouble even if he's not indicted. "At the very least, Rove misled White House officials and the public by allowing a Bush spokesman to say Rove had not been involved in discussions about Joseph Wilson, a critic of the administration's WMD rationale for the war in Iraq, and the fact that Wilson's wife worked at the CIA. Those assertions are now inoperative, as they used to say in the Watergate days."

Two Polls Give Corzine Solid Lead

With two days before Tuesday's New Jersey gubernatorial election, Sen. Jon Corzine (D-NJ) "has solidified his lead" over Doug Forrester (R) despite recent criticism from Corzine's ex-wife. The latest Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey poll gives Corzine a 9 point lead as of late last week among likely voters, 47% to 38%. Last month, Corzine held a 7 point lead over Forrester.

Meanwhile, a Greenberg Quinlin Rosner (D) poll gives Corzine a 12 point lead."
