As the Kingpin of “seasoned operatives”, Mr. Rove knows when to hold and when to fold.
Remember, to the “seasoned operatives”, politics is not just a passion or hobby - it’s a paycheck. Their income depends on their ability to convince someone that they’re smarter and better able to read the tea-leaves than anyone else.
So don’t be too hard on Mr. Rove. We should know what he is and what he does better than anyone.
Baloney. These are serious times. He made a big mistake and must pay for it or others will think they can get away with it also. What are you a liberal advocating a lighter sentence, a rehibilition program instead of the hard time he deserves.
