While I'd love to read something into Fleischers departure, its pretty commonplace for inner circle Whitehouse staff to resign before the second term campaign begins to heat up. It may well have more to do with not wanting such a gruelling job for four more years.

They will be hard pressed to find a boob big enough to fill Fleischers boob shoes. He was the only person on board whos sentence mangling rivalled the boss.
