What makes Gonzales so sticky? E-mail

On Time.com,  Massimo Calabresi writes an interesting little article in which reasons for why President Bush can't afford to get rid of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. The article does a good bit of explaining of each of the four main reasons postulated, but they boil down to this: Bush needs Gonzales in the top law enforcement position because he can't afford to have someone who's not his lackey in the position. 

Calabresi's four main reasons why Bush won't get rid of Gonzales:

1) Gonzales is all that stands between the White House and special prosecutors.

2) A post-Gonzales DOJ would be in the hands of a nonpartisan, tough prosecutor, not a political hand. 

3) If Gonzales goes, the White House fears that other losses will follow. 

4) Nobody at the White House wants the legal bills and headaches that come with being a target of investigations.
