If Karl was such a genius why did W barely squeak by an idiot loser like John Kerry-Heinz?
Rove has always been overrated in my opinion. Bush II lost the popular vote and barely squeaked by a few hundred votes in FL to win in 2000. In 2004 he barely won against one of the worst democratic candidates ever, John Kerry. In 2006, the GOP was massacred in the Senate and House. In 2008, the most liberal democrat President ever was elected along with a huge democrat majority in Congress.
Considering half or more of the U.S. voters are swayed by the near head-lock on the media airways, papers, mags, etc...It’s a wonder he even came close.
