1. In my opinion, Rove is throwing the doggie (Dems) a bone (in the form of himself) giving them something to chew on.
The libs on Twitter are running with it. They're reporting every negative article, every stinging editorial written by Conservatives about bad Karl Rove.
Rove the Bad serves as a distraction for them and in turn, a positive for us Conservatives.
2. Often it's not the message as much as he who says it first.
Rove is saying what the Dems wanted to say first, thus taking the first strike sting away from them.
And the hard core Dems are falling for it.
3. Conservatives are now lashing out at Rove which serves two purposes:
Rehearses us for the battles ahead, and again,
Takes away the first strike from the Dems.
It’s possible. As I said, he’s smart, and
wouldn’t have done it without calculation.
Still and all, it was vicious .. and offensive.
Rove was spiteful, contemptuous, and vicious beyond the control of Hannity, and the idea that he said what he said to feed the democrats is too cute by half, even for Rove, but it might produce that surprising result.
STARWISE posted an interesting article titled [A year ago] Karl Rove (allegedly) secretly tried to help Castle win. See what you think?
LOL! Rove has been this way for a long time. Nice try... That is what I call wishful thinking.... Sorry done with Rove!
Karl Rove, is that you?
Nice try, but Karl was NOT FAKING HIS ANGER!!
I always liked Rove myself, but as someone else has already said here, he jumped the shark last nite. Screw him. Screw Karl Rove, even if Karl Rove is posting here on FR under an obscure screen name.
Screw him in the nose, forever.
You’ve got to be kidding—because the GOP operative attacks her that helps the Dems? It’s the Dems dream to have the GOP beat up their own, so they don’t risk being tarred with having gone too negative.
I agree however that it’s good that the GOP Establishment, including RINO operatives, fully out themselves before 2012—so they won’t be able to steer the party to yet another RINO (Romney?) presidential candidate in 2012. That they’ve gone after O’Donnell as they have will make their attacks on Palin less credible. They’re the RINOs who have cried wolf enough for the electorate to be on to them.
