Indictments coming in D.C.?

There are a couple of sources reporting that rumors are swirling in Washington today about indictments, Karl Rove, and the Plame affair.

Yes, that's blog postings about rumors about indictments.

Still, is it possible that the news of Tom DeLay's legal woes just last week can be trumped this week by Karl Rove at last being frog-marched out of the White House?

Dare we dream?

Update: The Washington Post confirms that rumors are, indeed, swirling.

Update II (10/6, a.m.): Think Progress lists the 21 administration officials involved in Leakgate, and details their whereabouts, conversations, grand jury appearances, etc.

Update III (10/6, p.m.): NYT...

Stephen Gillers, a New York University law professor, said it was unusual for a witness to be called back to the grand jury four times and that the prosecutor's legally required warning to Rove before this next appearance is ''an ominous sign'' for the presidential adviser.

''It suggest Fitzgerald has learned new information that is tightening the noose,'' Gillers said. ''It shows Fitzgerald now, perhaps after Miller's testimony, suspects Rove may be in some way implicated in the revelation of Plame's identity or that Fitzgerald is investigating various people for obstruction of justice, false statements or perjury. That is the menu of risk for Rove.''

Hopefully indictments will come this week. Republicans are falling apart at the seams.
