If Karl Rove was responsible for dividing America and shredding the Constitution – heady achievements for a political consultant – inquiring minds want to know:
Who is the liberal Karl Rove?
And since the answer is obviously, “There isn’t one,” perhaps we can glean something from asking why.
(Excerpt) Read more at northstarwriters.com ...
Some of them are good, some of them ain't.
Who is the liberal Karl Rove?
Bob Shrum. the Anti Rove.
In all ways you can measure, except gender.
Rove wins...Shrum as we all know is famous for losing.
Rove’s on the Right...Shrum is on the Left.
Yin and Yang, so to speak.
The liberal Karl Rove is a hydra-like creature. Carville is one of its many heads.
I’m sure Rove will be getting a network show, a la George Stephanopolus, the Clinton hack.
This writer actually seemed to have cheaped out and gone the lazy route, if he had done any research, he would have realized that saying Atwater was the first, is akin to saying Bush is the first southerner to be President.
Serpent-head?
Shrum? What campaign he worked on was actually successful?
Reread my post slowly....
He works for Fox News now. It was Dick Morris.
My bad.
On the Republican side, we don't have an equivalent need to explain our loses (we blame our own politicians for not being good enough) and so we do not manufacture Democrat masterminds who are secretly pulling the strings of society.
Rove was good. But his myth is a creation of the Left. We just don't reciprocate.
I'm #$%^&^&* sick of these $#$%^&*)ing snakes!
Why aren’t there any intelligent morons?
Why isn’t there any white colored black paint?
Why isn’t there dry rain?
OXYMORON.
My bad.
No problemo, I do the same thing all the time.
Because it is a lot easier to sell bread than it is to sell dog sh!t in a bag.
James Carville IS the liberal ROVE!........
Dick Morris is a “Hired Gun”. He works both sides of the fence........
Funny thing is, that sounds like a job description for a Democrat Political Activist.
Whaat about the snake-head — Carville?
Karl Rove thinks outside the box. He is the anti-group-thinker.
In 1981, he brought direct mail targeting to the GOP, a political revolution then that became commonplace later on.
In 2000, he shocked the “conventional thinking” by saying that you could win the White House *without* winning either New York or California...something unheard of prior to that point.
In contrast, the Left is groupthink central. Every wonk at MSNBC applauds the same thing and boos the same thing. They all think alike.
They all want to ban the same things and mandate the same things.
...and anyone who thinks differently is shunned, scorned, shamed, or attacked.
Why isn’t there dry rain?
Reminds me of comedian Steven Wright - “If I melt dry ice can I go swimming without getting wet?”
Not any more! Rove led the GOP into the 2006 debacle. Frankly, I can't understand why so many conservatives want to keep following him off the cliff.
They don’t have anyone that smart.
Bob Beckel overpaid.
Smart? Check out the 2006 election results.
The EEvil Rove is Rasputin, invented by the media. Just as was the EEvil Lee Atwater. The reason the media doesn’t invent a liberal Rasputin, is they don’t want to create an EEvil liberal Rasputin.
Being smart gives you no ability to prevent political pendulums from swinging. Your point is silly.
Rove wins...

You need to learn to differentiate between a Presidential campaign cycle, a first term ‘mid term’ and a mid term like last year.
There was nothing Rove could have done given the Foley scandal and the Senate’s nonsense stretching from ‘gang of fourteen’ to Mecaca. Especially since both of those ‘scandals’ broke so late in the campaign.
They ALL think they are.
Usually once the governing begins, the campaign gun's job is finished, if they continue in the administration it's usually in a political role at the party h.q. for example.
Rove served in campaign and policy roles.
Shrum’s congrats to Ketchup Boy was the highlight of election night ‘04.
‘Shrum’s congrats to Ketchup Boy was the highlight of election night ‘04.’
Yep....I’ll always wonder if they actually contacted and offered up a Cabinet position or three before reality bit em both in the ass.
Who is the conservative Karl Rove?
The elevation of Karl Rove by libs to the position of The Great Omnipotent Evil One is just a standard part of the left’s perpetual stance towards Republicans. Every Republican president, despite however many degrees from prestigious institutions, is viewed as the village idiot. Remember Reagan was called an amiable dunce. Therefore because someone is beating the bejeesus out of them, it must be some behind-the-scenes operator like Rove who is responsible for all the conservative triumphs. It certainly can’t be the Republican president.
There was-—his name was Carville.
“Why Is There No Liberal Karl Rove?”
Because carville ain’t that smart.
LLS
The scandals had little to do with the 2006 debacle. It was Iraq first and last. You're right not even Rove could sell a sow's ear (Iraq) as a silk purse.
BINGO! Spot on!
A defeat is a defeat, midterm or otherwise. People have very short memories here.
The scandals had little to do with the 2006 debacle. It was Iraq first and last.
couldn’t disagree more with you. If that was the case poll after poll would show full support for Dems to cut the funding in Iraq. As we know, thats hardly the case, by a majority, in poll after poll after poll.
Folks here who don't believe that Iraq is central to Bush's unpopularity (and now the the popularity of the me-too Democratic Congress) are enganging in wishful thinking (just like they were before the 2006 debacle).
Try Raum Emmanuel - he’s definitely the liberal version of Karl Rove...
The public voted a change in 2006 on Iraq and got the surge in return.
The polling data doesn’t support the assertions you make here CK.
Mike DeWine didn’t lose his job because of Iraq here in Ohio. George Allen didn’t lose his because of it either.
In fact, I don’t think we can name a single fired pol from last November that was cast aside by voters that can show Iraq was ‘the reason’.
Mid terms have always been first and foremost about local politics, and local perceptions.
James Carville?
Rahm Emanuel?
....Who is the liberal Karl Rove? ......
Some call him the Seprent Head. Others call him James Carville.
