Gregory Craig to be gone: It was foretold

The Washington Post reports today that White House Fall Guy Counsel Gregory Craig is expected to announce his resignation.

Suits & Sentences called this back on Sept. 25, following what was at the time a Rahmianesque undercutting of Craig's White House standing. The point at the time of the September posting: White House rivals colleagues of Craig had taken to the front page of the Post to anonymously pin on him the blame for Guantanamo Bay foul-ups and, more pointedly, to make the point that Craig was losing his seat at the proverbial power table.

By so bluntly undercutting Craig's authority at the time, the hard men who wanted him gone set ticking the clock that is now about to ring.
