The hopes and dreams of an entire Democratic generation, dashed in a single moment.

Looks like Fitzmas won’t be coming this year, or any year, for that matter. From the Times:

“WASHINGTON, June 13 — The prosecutor in the C.I.A. leak case on Monday advised Karl Rove, the senior White House adviser, that he would not be charged with any wrongdoing, effectively ending the nearly three-year criminal investigation that had at times focused intensely on Mr. Rove.”

C’est la vie, c’est la guerre.
