I'm not a fan of the man, but you can't deny that he was very good at what he did, even if a lot of us would disagree with his goals.

Oh absolutely, the man is a political genius. My main point was the change is likely to be in name only, as he will likely still be in regular consultation with Bush. Thus the conclusion that this in some way works to his advantage in the ongoing investigations of the Administration.
