So has it already begun? Conservative cannibalism.
I’m continually amazed at how many FReepers think that everyone who has an opinion that differs from their own is evil.
Even families disagree, but they work together to further common causes.
Find something positive and worthwhile to do. We need to get Obama out of Washington and flip another one-third of the Senate in two years.
And here you are carping against a man who votes with you but didn’t like one of your candidates.
Self-defeating behavior, but it’s your life.
Stupid thread, stupid post.
The reason folks are mad is because Rove has engaged in “conservative cannibalism” by attacking the candidates that were not Rove approved.
No, it has to do with the fact that all this time conservatives have been told to shut up and tow the party line. However, when the conservative candidate wins the primary the elitist in the GOP don’t do the same and instead demean the conservative candidate.
“Even families disagree, but they work together to further common causes”
Ohhhhhh i get it. You mean like how Rove did? Wait, no, that can’t be it, Rove the butt-boy sabotaged O’Donnell all he could. Even before she was able to begin an acceptance speech.
Jedidah: “Even families disagree, but they work together to further common causes.”
Rove did NOT work together for the common cause of electing a Republican in Delaware. Your point is moot.
Like the Liberal Elite, the GOP Elite ignore our concerns.
They spend too much time "reaching across the aisle" when they should pursue conservative goals.
Try your cute little speech on the GOP Hierarchy; they're the problem. Report back with their response.
Karl did not just have a different opinion. He personally attacked conservatives who won the primaries at a time when they needed his help to get the vote. When he attacks the Tea party, he attacks ME!
Karl, is NOT a conservative. He is a inside the beltway counytry club Republican. And he is going DOWM!
Don’t believe me?
Just watch.
As a conservative Christian, I have more power in my keyboard and articles with my hometown newspaper than he does anymore.
KARL IS DEAD POLITICALLY!
It was after all his choice, and he chose political death when he attacked conservatives like O’Donnell & Sarah Palin.
You are right. We need a strong coaltion of right and center-right to defeat the Marxist in the WH in 2012.
Ain’t that the truth?! Good grief, he was being realistic! Yes, we all want conservatives to win, but in an ocean blue state, she wasn’t going to win. No wonder this site is losing people, with the attitude like alot have here anymore...if you don’t agree with me 100% of the time you are toast. Get over yourselves!
Well said.....I’m certain he’s not going to lose one second of sleep because he knows damn well that threats have no meaning if those that make them have no power to do anything but make noise.
??
Is Rove your boyfriend or something?
Hannity? Is that you?
He should have kept his opinion to himself and worked for promoting the candidates chosen.
But they weren’t one of his inside hand jobs like Lame McCain which drained most of us of any energy and motivation to work the 2008 elections.
That drab Old Man and the rest of Milktoasts, who did nothing but glad hand each other and even give high praise to Fauxbama are doddering old men and I don’t see their names ever again.
The last election was suppose to be about ideas. Two parties jostling it out until the field winnowed to two candidates and their ideas.
Instead, we got a bunch of guys saying “I agree with the gentleman and blah, blah, blah”.
There wasn’t a razors width difference between any of them except who was in a bigger hurry.
If a Republican had prevailed he would have acted oh so gentlemanly and strode with their egalitarian gait, as we slowly continued the direction we were headed.
As it is, we got Barry, The Kenyan, and he did what I half expected him to do: He filled up the gas tank, slapped the go pedal to the carpet and drove us off a cliff.
Karl can go Fleck himself. His words were not in the slightest helpful and just plain arrogant.
It was as if the RNC and other country clubbers were telling the rest of us “Son, you made a choice that wasn’t what I wanted and now I am going to show you who is boss”.
I will never give to the country club ever again and if they ever pull what they did again, you can be sure I will work against their candidates that are lame and that will mean I spend money on Democrats.
But that’s my 2 cents and some immeasurable amount after taxes.
As other have pointed out, Rove was behind some of the worst of the Bush policies along with some great strategy. The problem as that as time went on, it was more bad policies than anything else. I firmly believe it was Rove who advised W to cynically sign McCain-Feingold, and that represented for me the beginning of the downhill slide that culminated in the bailout bill.
I beg to differ. Karl Rove denounced Christine, and the RNC refused to support her. For their negligence, a “bearded communist” won.
Unlike you, and you are not alone, I call this inaction on the part of Karl Rove and the RNC, a self defeating behavior. Since to refuse to aid in the fight against a “bearded marxist,” is at the least highly irresponsible, and at the most, equivalent to aiding and abetting a marxist win a senate seat.
In the case of this race, the behavior of Karl Rove, and the RNC, is unconscionable.
I totally agree
Rove was great on FOX tonight. He kept batting Juan around for making excuses for Obama and why they lost. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Amen to you. She wasn’t going to win. Blaming Rove for her losing is ridiculous.

“He started it!”
