Rove's Neck in the Noose?

The noose appears to be tightening around Karl Rove's neck. According to Raw Story, Rove's assistant, Susan Ralston, has testified to a grand jury that Rove asked her not to log a call to Time's Cooper in July 2003. She has also given additional testimony about other calls Rove made to members of the press. It appears some of this testimony is in direct conflict with Rove's testimony to the grand jury.

Further evidence that Fitzgerald is after Rove comes in the news that another Time reporter, Vivaca Novak (unrelated to Robert), has been asked to testify in the case about conversations she had with Rove's attorney, Robert Luskin, when he was trying to spin the press.

It's hard to see how all this fits together, but it doesn't seem likely that this is leading nowhere. Certainly, Rove's attempt to avoid logging a call to Cooper seems to suggest Rove knew what he was doing was illegal.
