Paulose: A perfect storm of news stories

I was just wondering when the beleaguered U.S. attorney Rachel Paulose would be back in the news when I saw that she is the subject of stories today not only in the Star Tribune but also page one of the New York Times and, via the Times, the Wall Street Journal law blog.

The Times reports that Michael Mukasey, recently sworn in as U.S. attorney general, is being urged by U.S. attorneys and prominent lawyers and law professors in Minnesota to make an early visit here. The lawyers urging Mukasey to come here aren’t identified but the article goes on to quote former prosecutors Hank Shea (supporting Paulose), B. Todd Jones (criticizing Paulose) and Thomas Heffelfinger (refraining from comment on Paulose's performance).
