The media will make a big deal out of that if she fires them in the middle of their terms for political reasons regardless of how much she's screwed up before that. The Justice Department and the U.S. attorneys, again, are *supposed to be independent of politics*. Their appointments may be political to begin with--each party will tend to appoint USAs of the same party-- but they're appointed to be *part of law enforcement* and as such strictly apolitical. Republican USAs aren't supposed to go after Democrats who aren't guilty of anything while leaving corrupt Republicans strictly alone in order to facilitate the election of Republican candidates, for example.
