How about offering true conservatism? Lower taxes but also less government, less meddling, less corperate welfare.
Want a trump card? Offer to abolish the IRS permanently. Let the ‘rats argue against you that it should remain.
Good post, Wiley Pink. Good advice from Karl Rove.
Run Thompson.
Not surprising a man who likes to rove ignores borders
Wow. Common sense. Hmmm - gee, might be a good idea since that’s what conservatives are supposed to be all about.
NOMINATE A CONSERVATIVE!
It really is that easy.
1. grant an not an amnesty amnesty to every illegal alien
2. implement a "TEMPORARY" worker program so ten million new workers can enter the nation every year
3. double the budget of the Department of Education
4. force Israel into a terrible peace agreement
5. allow tens of thousands from terrorist states to enter the US on Education Visas
6. implement 'great society' programs
7. and on and on and on and on and on it goes...
It'll so confuse the democrats they won't know which democrat to vote for, a liberal(D) or a liberal(R).
Thanks Karl, you magnificent bastard.
The most important thing is sincerity. (You know the rest.)
You can always try CONSERVATISM.
It would probably work better than trying to beat the Libs at their own game, Amnesty, etc.
Talking points is not enough. You need a CANDIDATE who embodies conservative ideals and principles in action, but who also has political clout to get backing.
Or just say......”she’s been cheated on by her husband, she DESERVES to be President”!
I wonder why he missed the obvious illegal alien, and amnesty issue??? - Tom
The great mind speaks.
Will read later.
I didn't right it...I just posted it. :-))
I know most here think Rove is some kind of fricken genius, but at the risk of ruffling a few feathers ...
"Masterminded" ? "Masterminded" ? Bush very, very barely beat one of the stupidest men ever to appear on the national political stage, and then he barely beat a man exposed as a traitor during the Presidential campaign. Rove is sort of like the trainer of a high class stakes horse who hangs on to win in a photo against competition destined for the glue factory, and then brags about what a great trainer he is. Spare me.

If it wasn’t for Rove we’d be much better off. His advice to Bush has driven the GOP too far to the center.
There’s a ton of good stuff here for the GOP to use in the pending battles, but for some reason the GOP always plays “nice guy” and refuses to clobber the opposition with these kinds of facts. I think that’s one reason I’m so ticked-off at the GOP right now.
“How to beat hillery and obama”
Why with a baseball bat of course. They’ve earned it.
Uh, Karl, I think your days in the golden glow are over. I believe that 2008 is going to be a judgement on the ‘crafted’ political campaign. Genuine Conservatives of the traditional moral sort are going to act on conscience and principle, not expediency.
The krintons are coming back to the WH. Hold on to your hats.
Too late.
