Special Guests | Karl Rove, former Bush adviser

This is a rush transcript from "Hannity," September 14, 2010. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated.

SEAN HANNITY, HOST: Joining me with reaction to all the latest primary results, former adviser to President George W. Bush, Fox News contributor, we call him "The Architect," the one and only Karl Rove.

Karl, welcome back.

KARL ROVE, FORMER BUSH ADVISER: Thanks for having me, Sean.

HANNITY: All right, first, your reaction -- you know, first, we had Alaska, Murkowski loses. You had Rand Paul beat the establishment candidate, Sharron Angle, now its Delaware. Your reaction?

ROVE: Well, look, all the rest of them are explainable. You know, in Murkowski versus -- in the Alaska race, you had a long time feud between two factions in the party. In Kentucky, you had you a good candidate versus a candidate who had no message. In Nevada, you had a candidate who sort of self-emulated herself and another candidate with consistent message.

This is the inexplicable one because Christine O'Donnell has come on here at the -- very end of the campaign. There's a huge turnout tonight in Delaware. The total was estimated to be 30,000 people going into the primary and has come out 56,000. She has dealt a defeat to one of the state's longest, best known, thought to be most beloved political figures, a former governor and nine-term Republican Congressman in Mike Castle. ...

Karl Rove is currently infected with a lethal dose of CDS.

Tragically, he is not expected to pull through.

I assume that is in ADDITION to the $200,000 goal that is about to be passed at her own website?

Hannity: "Mike Castle is one of the seven or eight Republicans in the House that voted for cap-and-tax an F rating with the NRA. He's not pro-life."

Ah. This explains why the morning news referred to him as a "moderate".

I'm surprised Rove was so petulant as to openly reveal that his ego comes before the future direction of the country.

It confirms what many of us have been suspecting about this guy for years now.

Karl has forgotten which team he is on, and he is only helping the enemy by going after the republican nominee. Why does our party constantly shoot itself in the foot?

We probably should append “Pseudo” in front of Rove’s conservatism claims. I think this whole bs about O’Donnell is showing us who the real conservatives are.

Rove had his ego bruised. Too bad.

This is the same guy who was convinced amnesty would be the answer to future Republicans being elected.

Seems Rove is more interested in supporting the current establishment regardless of what we, the unsophisticated, stupid voters want.

Maybe Rove can run a third party campaign for Castle!

Rove is showing his true colors.

I've always said that the republican party had been highjacked by liberals........Rove, along with Castle have proven my point today.

I could never understand why anyone thought Rove was a political genius. Getting someone with a famous name elected in a red state like TX is hardly a sign of brilliance, and the Bush campaigns for POTUS were near catastrophes.

I believe the transcript should be “Self-immolate” not “self-emulate”.

Not even sure what it would mean to emulate yourself. What are you copying, yourself?
