It could be that the information would have come out in another few weeks. Most of the worst damages to the White House since Watergate have been cover-ups, not actual acts.
Rove might survive the damage, but not if he helps send a reporter to jail for months to cover his ass. If he knew that he was the source being protected, and did not come forward, that might be considered obstruction.
