Exclusive- Karl Rove Tried To Cut Deal For Castle With Tea Party
Freedomist ^ | 9/14/10 | Bill & Paul Collier

Posted on 09/15/2010 4:17:36 AM PDT by jimbo123

Sources at the Christine O’Donnell victory party revealed to The Freedomist that in December of last year Karl Rove met with Tea Party leaders in Dover, Delaware trying to get them to cut a “deal” in which they would leave Mike Castle alone and NOT support O’Donnell.

The Freedomist has also learned that Rove was allegedly acting as an operative, although in what capacity it is not known, even as he is playing the role of a political analyst on Fox New in a fair and balanced way.

The whole bunch of them are ‘moderates’


Actually, they, like the Bushes, are the elitist “ruling class” wannabes that, as someone else said, will not be removed from power easily or willingly.

They are arguably even more of a threat to our freedom than democRat elitists. At least we KNOW that ‘rat elitists have designs on our freedoms. The elitist republicans are simply wolves in sheeps’ clothing.

I read in one of the LIVE thread that Dana Perino was also showing her 'moderate' side.

That's disappointing. I really thought Dana Perino was smarter than that. I guess it's hard to give up the trappings of power.

Have emailed Hannity and complimented him on his defense of O’Donnell and the TEA Party last night. Have also asked him not to give the little dipwad, Rove, any more air time this pre-election season after he gave the Democrats their attack ad material last night.

There’s something deeper going on here. Rove had genuine fear in his voice last night. They are truly afraid of outsiders coming into DC. Could it be that there is fear about the eligibility issue or some other issue that they are petrified of?

This says tons about where the Bush admin had us directed.

Oh, now you did it. You woke up the Bushbots. They will be coming after you full force.

LOL

Karl showed that he only cares about HIS influence. He was peeved because the Tea Party exercised their influence more effectively than he did.

Irrelevance is rarely pretty. In this case, it’s getting downright ugly.

The ruling class will not go down easily.

Case in point: McCain spends over $20 million to get elected to a position that pays $174,000 per year.

Politics is corrupted by big money.

The Tea Party is like the Resistance in France was in WW2. The RINOS are like the Vichy.

>> kkkarl rove has less cred than james carville...<<

That reminds me. Did anyone see Carville anywhere last night? He’s usually all over at election time. What’s up with that? Did the Gulf Oil spill fiasco dim his faith in Dems?

IMO they can't stand the prospect of the unwashed rabble taking way their GOP establishment power to annoit who gets to join their DC club.

After all, when someone like O'Donnnell or Angle talks about curbing the size and power of the federal government, they **gasp** actually MEAN IT! The horror!

He is out spending his payoff money he got from BP. Wonder how much they gave him to shut up?

Geee...I wonder what Mike Castle has on Karl Rove? Or what was PROMISED to Karl Rove by Mike Castle?

Inquiring minds want to know....

It would be more effective to tell FOX to get Rove to go away. He needs to be off the air where he can’t do as much damage to the republican party.

Carville and company are keeping quiet while plotting to take zer0's job away from him. Hillary's election is highly questionable but her campaign is highly possible.

Rove just fell of my list of people I respect.

I hate to agree, but I must. I attended a fundraiser in the spring and Karl Rove was the keynote speaker. I found him to be a genuinely kind man, totally gracious to take the time and go to each table, speaking to us, taking photos with us.
I was so disappointed after listening to him on Hannity's show last night.

As the author of GWB’s amnesty plan, he fell off my admiration list years ago.
