    Not requesting a new trial may be the smartest move this "fallguy" has ever made.
    His appeal will go nowhere until after 2008 when even more damaging news to this Regime will see the light of day.
    I think his chances are slim @ best. I believe he's running out the clock for the 11th hour Presidential pardon.
