Karl Rove Says Christine O'Donnell Needs to Explain Witchcraft 'Dabbling' to Voters
AOL News ^ | 19/9/10 | Bruce Drake

Posted on 09/19/2010 1:16:35 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

Karl Rove, political mastermind for former President Bush, said Sunday that Christine O'Donnell, the Tea Party insurgent who won an upset victory in Delaware for the GOP Senate nomination, "can't simply ignore" the controversy stirred over the disclosure that she "dabbled in witchcraft" and has to find a way to "explain it and put it in its most sympathetic light and move on." "In southern Delaware, where there are a lot of church-going people, they're probably going to want to know what was that all about," Rove said on Fox News Sunday. "And again, she said it on television when she went on the ... the Bill Maher show." Rove was referring to an October 1999 appearance O'Donnell made on Maher's "Politically Incorrect" show where she said," I dabbled into witchcraft -- I never joined a coven... One of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar, and I didn't know it." O'Donnell had been on Maher's show frequently in the 1990s, and Maher has said he is going to show an O'Donnell clip each week until she agrees to appear again.

I seriously doubt Karl Rove understands the trouble he is in now. He’s been drop kicked through the goal posts of life ~

Last week I held this guy in pretty high esteem.

Now, it honestly boggles me that someone can be this petty, and dense.

Not even Castle (or Coons) has come after her like he has.

"Karl Rove, political mastermind for former President Bush"

From mastermind to master-baiter in just 10 years.

Like any Christian who repents from a past life, Christine will have no difficulty explaining the witchcraft nonsense. Karl should know that, having been with W for so long.

Perhaps Rove can explain why he dabbles in Rino crap? Rove has lost any respect he ever had.

Obama has not explained why a known terrorist laucnched his senatorial campaign. No big deal.

Obama has not explained why this known terrorist’s wife killed cops. no big deal.

Obama needs to explain why he was part of a racist church for 20 years. no big deal.

Obama needs to explain why he is promting the Muslim faith and abandonning the seperation of church and sate. No big deal.

But if O’Donnell was interested in witchcraft a a kid, now that is an outrage.

Karl Rove is acting like Murkowsky in being a sore loser. He backed Castle and his candidate lost. Now he is going to do what he can to torpedo the O’Donnell campaign to prove himself right at the posible expense of a Senate seat. What a loser.

Did Tokyo Rove ask any questions about HillBeast talking to the dead Elenore Roosevelt. He is a puss, hypocrite.

Speaking from a female perspective, me and all my friends “dabbled” into this crap.

So what. Remember the “light as a feather, stiff as a board”...and the ouiji board? Young peeps dabble into things they shouldn't. I'm sure NO ONE here has "dabbled" into something they shouldn't have as a youngster.

How about Obama explaining what he considers confusion over his BIRTH CERTIFICATE?! Not once has anyone asked him about it and not once has he attempted to explain it.

So Karl Rove and Bill Mahr are on the same team? Probably in more ways than one...

I’m trying to recall if Rove demanded Bush explain his DUI 30 years ago?
