You are way too kind in your assessment and description...

There was actually a speculative piece put out by a conservative pundit with this same idea.

I frankly think that's really damning, as it implies guilt and forces the Democrats to distance themselves from the leader of their own party.

Right now Obama has gone to figure which of his radical friends is snake and weasel enough to suitably replace Holder. He/she/it will be a race card puller too.

The only thing we can hope is that the Republicans control the Senate. Then it will be a long road to climb to find a replacement that will go along with Obama.

I don’t want the new administration to waste their time. It’s more important to ‘gut’ the government till all the ooze of progressivism spills out.

Potus will do a general pardon of those under him, and the next CIC will (by tradition) pardon Potus. It's the way it's done in Lootington DC...

I would put money on this one... the odds of this NOT happening are slim to none.

He stay 5 years too long.

don't let the door hit you in the ass? -- j

Let the door slam him on the head, making him physically unfit to hold any further office.

POTUS has Al Sharpton providing recommendations, so whoever is selected will make Holder look like a super Ultra right Wing Conservative.

Hello Stormi,
I see several comments regarding speculation of a Supreme Court appointment for Holder. This is an ominous scenario. To imagine a person found guilty of contempt of congress being confirmed to the court is terrifying. The political fallout for any Senator who confirmed before the election would be very risky. They would however have less risky opportunity during the lame duck session after the election. This strategy sounds plausible considering the level to which these reprehensible progressives will stoop. The question then becomes, how do they get Ginsberg or one of the other justices who have expressed, in no uncertain terms, their intent to stay, to retire?
Respectfully,
O.A.

It was curious to me He resigned the same day a Federal judge ruled all of the "Fast and Furious" documents must be handed over. hmmm?

Really? I would think the deputy AG would take over (assuming of course that there is a deputy AG).

this, plus the confirmation of another BHO clone
as AG, would be the trifecta! -- j
