Am I the only person who has no problem with what Rove supposedly did here?

There's no question that Rove was on a mission to nail Siegelman, exactly why I couldn't say.

But the larger issue is whether or not Siegelman actually broke the law by accepting that bribe from Richard Scrushy. The jury said that he did, and they both went off to prison, where as far as I know they still reside (haven't kept up though). It may well have been a witch hunt, but the hunt turned something up.

I found the following line hilarious:

"Rove’s attempt to smear Don Siegelman was part of a Republican campaign to ruin him that finally succeeded in imprisoning him, says the operative, Jill Simpson"

Yes, one day I was trying to find the governor chasing a skirt, and the next thing I know he's in prison!

I’m with you. If he was in a ‘compromising position’ with an aide, then she should have taken a photo. He wasn’t, and she didn’t. That’s the way politics is played. Look at how they’re trying to smear McCain now.

If it surprises you, you haven't been paying attention.
