Spitzer and the Return of Ted Wells

I couldn't help but notice the return of Ted Wells at the Spitzer press conference. He's the Paul, Weiss lawyer who helped defend Scooter Libby. (I was a prosecution witness at the Libby trial.) He's a great litigator and scandal fixer having helped the likes of Mike Espy and Bob Torricelli. And since Spitzer was already being represented by Paul, Weiss he was a natural. But from where I sit, he didn't do a good job at the Libby trial, wildly overshooting by seeming to blame the whole thing on Karl Rove and then quickly retreating from that line of argument and becoming over-the-top emotional with a jury that didn't seem to buy it. If this goes to trial--although i can't imagine it coming to that--Spitzer might want to think twice about sticking with Wells who lost the Libby case, big time.
