To "flip", you have to be under threat of prosecution (I really don't see grounds, but we don't see everything) and have something to offer.

But lets assume they have jammed up and he is in legal peril (a big assumption).

What could he be offering? The doj would surely already have all of his phone logs, text messages, and relevant witness statements. Heresay? Protected house documents the dems didn't have? A love affair with both thomas's?

The loonies don't need an excuse other than he isn't white enough.
