Rover is a legend in his own mind. Just read his book. He did help Dubya get elected BUT should not have stayed on as a high level policy advisor. He simply lacks the knowledge and expertise to do that [same with Rahm, Axelrod and Valerie Jarrett] and steered Dubya into some major blunders, including not responding to lies and slurs (which Rove now concedes was his fault).
