Prediction time

I think that there will be at least three indictments handed down next week, and they will be blockbusters. Karl Rove and Scooter Libby will be indicted. The big question, of course, is what will they be indicted for? From what I've been reading it looks to me like a conspiracy charge, probably for obstruction of justice, and possibly perjury charges against Rove and Libby. I also think that there's a witness tampering charge in the wind for Libby and possibly even for his lawyer, Tate. I'm hoping that Cheney will be named too, but I can't see what the charge would be. There's been so much juicy stuff coming out these past few days (see here, here, here, and here) and all of it centers on Libby, Rove, and Cheney.
