Karl Rove finds the non-Romney candidates unacceptable
Salon.com ^

Posted on 10/28/2011 12:43:59 PM PDT by Leaning Right

Rove is very much in a “do I have to do everything myself” mode these days, which is why he’s also running the GOP’s congressional campaign as an independently funded venture. Here he is practically acting as a Romney surrogate on Fox and attacking Herman Cain, because actual Romney surrogates seem unable to.

The title of the article says a lot. Salon is a hard left site, and they get most things wrong. But they sure have Rove's number.

The real question is this: Is Fox that ignorant of what Rove is up to, or are they co-conspirators?

He needs to STFU and let the process run its course. It is not ethical OR fair for Rove to make an end run on ANY candidate at this point. Down the road when the horse race narrows, fine... his comments will matter.... NOT NOW

Voters are entitled to hear candidates unencumbered by biased and mean-spirited input from the side lines.

Rove has distinguished himself with his love
of ineligible, implausible, political cross dressers.

Rove is nothing but a paid pimp, like FOX “News”.

Pig Rove has been popping up on Fox a hell of a lot lately.

You'd be surprised how quick I can grab the remote.

Maybe Karl should run for office so we can show him how acceptable he is.

Rove is basically right. Ideology aside, few have demonstrated the staying power, consistent support, field organization, discipline, focus, and endorsements as Romney. Perry is Romney’s only real peer on the stage. The others are just competing for airtime and attention. Does anyone seriously believe that Ron Paul, Newt Gingrich, or Michelle Bachmann or Rick Santorum has a plausible chance? Of course not. And Cain won’t last too long under scrutiny as he is the least tested and there are some obvious flaws with 999.

And the Tea Party has been ALL OVER THE MAP. First Palin supporters, when she didn’t get in, they went to Bachmann. Then the very day Perry announced, they dropped Bachmann and went over to him, and then after a few subpar debate performances and mulligans, they are now flocking to Cain. Romney will win simply by divide and conquer and that the Tea Party has been all over the map.

Karl Rove is unacceptable - especially after the way he ranted about Christine O’Donnell, spittle flying from his mouth, when she defeated his pal Mike Castle. Talk about a sore loser!

Karl Rove was responsible for Arnold Palmer and Lincoln Chaffee, among other stellar picks.

Rove is simply looking after his financial interests.
He doesn’t give a damn about parties, conservative or iberal.
NO way I support or vote for RINO Romney.
Not another bob dull, or juan mc lame, and no to this clown who has NO beliefs.
