One wonders whether Karl Rove's misogyny is rooted in closeted homosexuality or rooted in his divorce. Regardless, his efforts to destroy Palin will fail.

For many Republicans, the bright, golden haze of Election Day is marred by a thunderhead on the horizon -- the increasingly erratic political interventions of Sarah Palin.
In the past, Palin embodied the populist style of the Tea Party movement while espousing a fairly mainstream Republican ideology. On economic, social and foreign policy, Palin seldom strayed from a simplified, popularized Reaganism. The mama grizzly may have been ferocious, but her talking points came from the Heritage Foundation instead of from darker corners of the right.
But this election season has called that perception into question. Palin's endorsement of Christine O'Donnell in the Delaware Republican Senate primary revealed a preference for a shallow ideological purity above achievement, qualification or electoral success. And on Monday, Palin issued a robocall for Constitution Party gubernatorial candidate Tom Tancredo in Colorado, one of the most divisive figures in American politics.
Tancredo has made a career of fanning anti-immigrant resentment and lobbing ideological grenades. The people who voted Barack Obama into office, in his view, "can't even spell the word vote or even speak English." America would be better off with a "civics, literacy test" for voting. The National Council of La Raza is "a Latino KKK without the hoods or the nooses." Miami is a "Third World country." Pope Benedict's embrace of immigrants is all about "recruiting new members," in an attempt at "faith-based marketing." "The guy sitting in the White House," says Tancredo, is a greater threat to the Constitution than al-Qaeda. "If his wife says Kenya is his homeland, why don't we just send him back?"
It would be the worst outcome of this Election Day if the conservative wave were to carry Tancredo into office. The replacement of the supremely decent Colorado Governor Bill Ritter with a nativist...

ROFL! They can’t even control themselves until tomorrow.
Translation: Palin’s ability to motivate the conservative base screws up all our plans.
It would be the expression of the will of the people. I understand why one of Rove's minions would hate that.
Wow,these people really are afraid of Palin.
But then they should be..
Yeah. She was acting like a Ronald Reagan.
He’s a little rino....a roveien rino
Career Prior to joining the Bush Administration, he was a senior policy advisor with The Heritage Foundation, a conservative public policy research institution.[3] He also worked at various times as an aide to Indiana Senator Dan Coats and a speechwriter for the Presidential campaign of Bob Dole before briefly leaving the political world to cover it as a journalist for U.S. News & World Report.[4] Gerson also worked at one point as a ghostwriter for Charles Colson.[5]
In early 1999, Karl Rove recruited Gerson for the Bush campaign.[5]
Gerson was named by Time as one of “The 25 Most Influential Evangelicals In America” in the magazine’s February 7, 2005 issue of the magazine, listing Gerson as the ninth most influential.[3]
[edit] Speechwriter
Gerson’s a Johnny One Note. Immigration is his thing and he hates Tancredo.
This is so predictable.
Oh, whatever, libtards. The only thunderhead on the horizon is the one barrelling toward the polls today. Heads up, dummies. You’re gonna get drenched.
Why are people so afraid of this woman?
I read a blog from a liberal leaning acquaintance of mine who posted about her family Halloween party talking about her dad’s charcoal grill coloring the hot dogs as “black as Sarah Palin’s heart”.
NUTS!
ROVE! You malignant bastard, I will not read your book!
Watch Rove start turning up in New Hampshire over the next few months...
Wish I could say that, it was boring anyway. It went in the garbage when Tokyo Rove stepped on his Johnson bashing Christine.
Reads as if it could have been ghost written by Has-been-Rove
ROTFLOL
I don’t understand it either!
She is not even running for office and they act like she’s a heartbeat away from the presidency.
Meanwhile, the beast Pelosi really IS a couple of heartbeats away from the presidency.
SHE MUST BE SENT PACKING.
What have have Karl Rove and Company been doing to stop the Europeanisation of America?
Notice that Gerson also did name his “sources”. I wonder why?
