Reply #10: Domenici was so hot to get Iglesias fired that he went to Rove and told

[KoKo]

him to get Bush to overule Gonzales on firing.

This might not get Bush..but if it can be proved that Iglesias was not prosecuting something important to Dominici and Dominici went on to try to obstruct justice by going to Rove and the P-Resident...that Dominici will go down. And Richardson can appoint a Democrat to the Senate if this story moves fast enough.

Article seems to point to someone in Dominici's staff leaking this to cover their butt which would make it seem he's in big trouble.

And, there's an "obstruction of justice" issue if Iglesias was being forced out because Bush and Rove wanted him out because of politics. But, not as important as Dominici having to resign from the Senate.
