Rove is right. He predicted how O'Donnell would flop and hinted that it could cost the GPO additional senate seats.... In my personal opinion, he was thinking about Alaska, Nevada, Colorado, Washington, etc. All of these should have been captured by the tea party. Personally, I think O'Donnell cost real conservatives senate seats. Say what you will... but Rove was right. Don't hate the messenger.
How did this take place? How were these other states moved to vote against their GOP Senate candidates by virtue (or vice) of the long-shot O’Donnell?
Karl lit the fire...then showed up with the garden hose.
Smells like Troll.
but didn’t turn it on.
costing the GOP seats isn’t the same as costing conservative seats.
No. Rove knew that a flaky candidate in the east coast could ruin it for the west coast elections.
If someone predicts someone else’s imminent demise and then shoots him, would you call the shooter a prophet?
O’Donnell cost us seats. You saw the “I am not a witch” ad right? That was played throughout the country
O’Donnell has nothing to do with any state besides Delaware. I smell ozone.
Is Miller not conservative? I think Alaska would be in Miller’s hands if there was no O’Donnell.
Is that you Karl?
Is Tokyo Rove now a troll on FR?
WRONG. O’Donnell was national news...
How was this supposed to happen? Was it like “eek, anything but giving that GOP ‘witch’ power in the political majority in the Senate”? It sounds like voodoo politics, pardon the term.
Can you say “pig-pile”?
Once COD won the primary, that’s what KR did.
No its not Rove. Just a freeper who thinks that, sometimes, the old school is the true school.
The tea party brought lots of gains for the House and state legislatures. But people want experienced candidates for the Senate. Eventually the state representatives will build themselves up and move up the ladder. For example, Rubio was speaker of the house in Florida. He wasn’t just some guy coming out nowhere who wanted to be Senator.
You beat me to the punch. I was just going to post the question.
How do you like that billboard size promo pic?
Karl’s Roving FR.
Can you say, “I am not a witch” playing on national news.
