The president will not be implicated. They've learned to keep the top brass out of these decisions from Nixon. Reagan managed to stay out of most of the limelight from Iran-Contra. I'd imagine the president doesn't ask how things will happen and insists upon not being told. Plausable deniability is a beautiful thing for them. All they need say is "get it done".
Worst case scenario? I'd say that would be the best case if everyone caught it from the top down. It's times like this that I almost miss independant prosecutors like Ken Starr. I never thought I'd say that, but crimes beyond what a president does with his own dick should probably be investigated. Blowjob? Who gives a fuck? Outing a covert CIA agent for political retribution? That is near treasonous.
