The Late-Friday Bailouts...

Coincidence or karma?

William Mercer, the Acting Associate Attorney General, resigned on June 22, 2007.

Michael Elston, chief of staff to Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty, resigned on June 15, 2007.
Monica Goodling, Gonzales’ White House liaison, resigned on April 6, 2007.

And what do all of these dates have in common? They’re all Fridays. (And, in each instance, the resignations were announced in the late afternoon.)

Every Friday, we are going to guess on the blog which official bails out...
