He alluded to this himself in the clip that Ed posted earlier, but since he’s now being treated as some sort of cancer on the party for daring to say that O’Donnell’s a flawed candidate, let’s flesh out the facts a bit. If, as Jeri Thompson suggests, Rove has a double standard for tea-party women, why is he spending boatloads of cash to help someone who, until 48 hours ago, was the most famous woman tea-party candidate in America?
Sure, the fact that he hates Harry Reid is part of it. But what does that prove? Everyone hates Harry Reid.

Thats funny.
Good for Karl. I'm still mad at him, so he's going to be on probation for a while. Still, feel free to keep those boatloads of cash coming.
I’m glad he’s doing so, but it doesn’t excuse his hateful attack against O’Donnell. Perhaps if he hadn’t been working for Castle, he wouldn’t have taken Castle’s loss so hard.

Re: “...daring to say that O’Donnell’s a flawed candidate”
Ya...He went a just a wee-bit farther then that!
Rove needs Reid out of the Senate so they can spend more private time together.
Is Rove actually spending his own money to help Sharron Angle? If so, maybe he should get tips from Christine O'Donnell on how to most effectively spend his campaign cash.
Rove has his own million$ to spend on political campaigns?
You’ve hit the nail-on-the-head!
Rove believed Castle is the only Republican who could win in Delaware, and he took Castle’s defeat hard.
What he should’ve done after Castle lost was to advise Castle to be gracious publicly about the loss and for himself to stay away from interviews until a bit of time had passed.
Instead, Rove goes on FNC and trashes O’Donnell - really stupid! And Castle, where’s he? Why, he’s having a teleconference with Obama and Biden when he should be conceding the primary race.
This is definitely shameful on the part of Rove and Castle.
Karl Rove is the establishment.
Christine, like Palin, is fighting the establishment.
Fighting the establishment is a good thing that gets money and votes.
Bull Cr@p, he didn't just say she was flawed he parroted demonstrably false charges against her that the dims and RINO’s were making, this just after she'd trounced Karl's boy. And that nonsense about meeting her and not being impressed. That was personal and Rove was whining like a jilted school girl.
Sexist really isn't something I think of with Rove so much but he's establishment through and through.
He can move to the back of the bus or just get off, I really don't care much either way.
Rove want’s O’Donnel to lose because he will look stupid if she wins after he guran-dam-teed she couldn’t. Never in a million years.
“Karl Rove is the establishment.”
Karl Rove is for Karl Rove. Doesn’t matter if you are Red or Blue. What matters is Green.
Who cares who else he has supported?
It is not hard to be consistent these days and to be on the right side against tyranny especially when you consider yourself a boy genius.
Its bad enough he supported a union leftist hack like Castle but to come out on TV and continue to trash the Conservative after she won the primary shows that Karl has a different agenda and one that is not for preserving liberty.
Just like I wont fall into the senseless argument made by leftist to say well look how Bush spent so we can double what they spent I will not take a neutral stance on something that is so clear because he supported other candidates.
This was a calculated attack to undermine Conservative movement period.
Karl Rove is the enemy.
There is no relativism here folks it is crystal clear he is choosing a Marxist over a Conservative in this election.
Oh, I don’t believe he wants a Republican to lose.
Instead, I suspect he’s belligerent because his own analysis of the situation is that she can’t win in Delaware.
Either way he has blown his chances to work with Conservatives from here on out.
O’Donnell can win this Senate seat and Rove must go home to Texas and get reacquainted with what it mean to be ‘Conservtive’.
I've never really cared for Rover personally, and this is why I think his political acumen is highly over-rated. You're 100% correct. Rove, always despised by the left, has now painted himself as a target of the right as well. And the thing is, he might have been correct; O'Donnell may lose the general, but even if she does now, Rove and those of his ilk, rather than standing vindicated, will receive some of the blame for her loss.
Oh, I don’t believe he wants a Republican to lose
You’ve listened to what he’s been and continues to say about her and you still think that?
Karl can still be useful to us. He just needs to be kicked around a little. He needs to be reminded we conservatives can make him,....or break him.
Rove and those of his ilk, rather than standing vindicated, will receive some of the blame for her loss.
