So the only possible Republican she could be protecting is Karl Rove (despite the fact that the "leak" likely came from a Republican White House), but she could be protecting virtually any Democrat? Asinine.

And you believe she is protecting a Republican source?

If her source was a Republican She'd be out front with a torch in her hand leading the chanting - "Burn 'em!".

Seriously - I don't think she would have gone to jail for an Eeevill Republican.

It's (Pick one) either Wilson, Cooper, Corn, or some other reporter, or, she dosn't want to admit that she "Just made it up".

You drew the wrong conclusion from Elwood's post.

Perhaps it is the conclusion you wanted to draw but it does not stand up to logical scrutiny of the post.

She may be protecting a Democrat, but you underestimate the value all reporters put on keeping their sources confidential. She knows she would never get any juicy exclusives if she were known as someone who didn't respect her sources' confidentiality.

Also, she's probably thinking about the enormous book deals and speaking engagements she'll get when this is all done.

Hell yeah, she could be protecting a Republican, for a variety of reasons.

p.s. as for the poll, I didn't vote because I think all the choices are wrong.

You clearly have no idea of who Judith Miller is. She was a leading proponent of the Iraq War.

Where the hell are you people coming up with these unbelievable assumptions? Are you listening to talk radio or something?
