Sorry, Christine O’Donnell may not have been as good a candidate as she seemed at first. And she might have lost even if the Establishment had supported her or kept quiet, since Delaware is a very liberal state.
But Karl Rove disgraced himself by repeatedly attacking her AFTER she was nominated. What, exactly, did that accomplish, aside from making him look like the traitorous jerk that he is?
The way I remember it, he was a paid analyst on FOX. And what he said was true. I understand your point. I personally wanted to rail against that moron candidate O'Donnell here, but I steeled myself and did the "right" thing and left it alone until after election day. And even then I haven't brought it up much. But it doesn't bother me that Rove told the truth about her.
