Rove is a numbers guy, and to him the numbers didn't look good. He could have been a lot more gracious about it though.

Numbers are beside the point. Rove wants Republicans to win at any cost, and to continue the status quo, conservatives be damned. He believes, as do many here at FR, that we need to embrace RINO’s simply because the have an (R) beside their name.

Rove and most RINO’s believe that the American public in general will never allow conservatives to lead this country again, and they advocate moderation in order to have their party in control. This is the thought process behind amnesty. If they are nice to the illegal immigrants and they are the ones who allow the illegal immigrants to stay, those same illegal immigrants along with moderates will vote Republican, regardless of the consequences from their much larger base.

Rove and his ilk are undeniably part of the problem, just as much as the marxists.

It’s not that. When he said it, She was already the winner. At that point there was no up side of trashing her except to help the libs beat her. He does not care if she loses. He wants her to lose. I can’t figure it out either but its not that he is just smart enough to see she can’t win. He is taking part in her losing. On purpose.

“Rove is a numbers guy”

Exactly! Rove’s game is winning elections. Plus for “R”, minus for “D” pretty much sums it up. And there aren't many better at that than Karl Rove.

The problem is there are a lot of “R's” who like playing for the other team's legislative agenda.

What really aggravated me is that I saw Rove using old numbers to make his case in an extremely fluid race.

He was wrong then and I think he's wrong now.

How can anyone disparage Christine when we have a Barack Obama as President!!,I'll take her credentials over his any ol' day.

“He could have been more gracious about it”. No kidding!! Like maybe only repeating the lies about O’Donnell once instead of every night since. Karl has slit his own throat with this. His credibility is now damaged forever. I can hardly stand to look at the guy.

No. He is attempting to sabotage her and by extension the people who voted for her. Rove is losing power (and his temper) as it becomes clear WE THE PEOPLE mean business.

It wasn’t a matter of his being gracious; he sounded like a sore (Gore) loser.
