Some senior Republicans with WH connections want either Rove or Card out..

<snip>

Some senior Republicans with ties to the White House, who asked for anonymity because they did not want to be identified describing internal White House deliberations, said there was a widespread feeling here that Mr. Bush would be well served to bring in new advisers, either replacing Andrew H. Card Jr., his chief of staff, or Karl Rove, his senior political adviser.

But one Republican with close ties to the White House said the investigation of Mr. Rove's role in leaking the name of a C.I.A. operative was making it nearly impossible to make any changes until it was resolved.

2. What is a "senior" Republican?

Is that Daddy Bush or maybe Colin Powell?

5. i think Card wants Rove out imo, Card has been a loyal soldier to the

Bush family and i think that he thinks Rove is hurting Bush. I wouldn't be surprised if the "senior Republican with whitehouse ties" is actually Card floating a trial balloon.
