LOL!

Despite his best efforts, Rove has been cast as some Machiavellian genius who can predict the future and know Democrats' innermost thoughts...

Democrats are so predictable. They continue to use the same playbook.

I am surprised that the author missed one of Rove's accomplishments -- he persuaded Ted
Kennedy to harrass Condi Rice  http://www.ivanyi-consultants.com/articles/harrasment.html  
which led Condi to describe the incident visually:
