Damascus envoy speculation: cold and colder

Just fyi, since there's lots of speculation around. Have been very reliably told by two senior administration officials that Adam Ereli, U.S. Ambassador to Bahrain, is not going to be nominated to be the Damascus envoy. If you want to see him, you will have to go to Bahrain.

And separately was told by a third source that the speculation about a Syria envoy is all a bit premature, and that nothing has been forwarded to the White House yet.

 UPDATE: Another senior official says a name has not been forwarded to the White House yet.

  1. And from a reliable fourth source, the Syrian envoy is, as we speak, being held up in D.C.. Not by the White House, or the Congress, but by a couple of crack-heads and one of the chicks they're pimping, demanding immediate cash payment for the services they rendered, 'Or you can kiss your envoyship goodbye'.
