1.0 link 41564 <![CDATA[The Worst Argument for Libby's Acquittal]]> http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jeralyn-merritt/the-worst-argument-for-li_b_41564.html Former prosecutor Victoria Toensing has an op-ed in the Washington Post today (debunked nicely by Larry Johnson) outlining her case for Scooter Libby&#39;s acquittal. In two words: jury nullification.

(Thanks, Victoria, for attempting to personally smear the prosecutor on the eve of closing arguments. I bet if a true criminal defense lawyer wrote an article like that you&#39;d accuse him or her of trying to influence the jury pool.)

Toensing is playing to the court of public opinion...
