Rove: Huckabee apologized

Karl Rove told a New York audience today that former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee e-mailed him to apologize for a public shot at the former White House adviser.
Huckabee, in the course of denouncing "elitism" in the Republican Establishment, told WABC's Aaron Klein that he was "disappointed" in Karl Rove's dismissal of Christine O'Donnell.
Speaking to the Heritage Foundation in New York today, Rove was asked about the comment. Per The Nation's Neima Jahromi, whose outlet asked the question, Rove said Huckabee had apologized for the jab.
Rove has become a target for parts of the right since public spats with Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh, but Huckabee has not been a particular ally of Palin's and an aide suggested to me early in the week that he hadn't intended his comment as harsh criticism.
As a sixth generation Mormon (now ex-mormon) I can assure you that Hucklebee was correct. They DO believe that Christ and Satan are brothers.
I find that so hard to believe, but you’re the ex-Mormon.
Somehow I think there is more to the story than just that.
But not being a Mormon, and just a generic Protestant, I couldn’;t say.
At any rate, I’d rathere have a Mormon in the White House than a black racist Marxist Muslim who hates America.

Sometimes it's hard to choose the lesser of two evils. If we didn't have Obama, we wouldn't be gaining the Congress or seats in the Senate. Those two branches would remain solidly Dem for at least two more years and probably well beyond. Go figure.
Well, Ford/Rockefeller and Carter gave us Reagan.
So Mormons believe we are all brothers of Christ and Satan?
Maybe in some ways that is figuratively true in a much reduced way. Some people are saintly and some are devilish, but that doesn’t make them real blood kin to God or Satan.
