Donations to Karl Rove's Groups Drop 98% after Targeting Tea Party
Breitbart. ^ | 1 Feb 2014, 11:59 AM PDT | Tony Lee

After wasting nearly $325 million during the 2012 election cycle with nothing to show for it and then declaring war on the Tea Party, donations to Karl Rove's three Crossroads groups decreased by 98% last year. The groups reportedly raised a paltry $6.1 million combined in 2013.

....

Since then, as Breitbart News reported, "Rove’s organization has been so tarnished among the conservative base that candidates fear donors will not contribute to any group associated with him." Aware of this, Rove's Crossroads network has reloaded with groups that share donors but are technically not affiliated on paper with them.

Tokyo Rove is probably a Democrat plant who hooked up with the Bushes and Cornball to guarantee that liberalism prevails no matter what. Many on our side though still think he is worth his weight in salt.

I just threw my Cornball mail solicitation in the trash today as soon as I received it. With his huge smile, he is confident of total success in 2014.

That Cantor pictured on the right of this photo is also treacherous, but Virginians once again don’t know that.

Pubbies aren’t “Nazis”; they are just liberals who want to “purify” their party, the way the Cromwellians went after the Church of England.

--- Did you hear Glenn Beck this week about getting together with Hannity and Levin because they are over the E-GOP and the likes of the Rovians? ---

Yes. I thought it was thread-worthy, but was surprised not to hear anything about it here. I thought it was very big news.

Glenn also mentioned that he would love for Rush to join the group. This is a very big development.

I'd like to see them all get together and rally behind a single conservative, before it's too late in the primary process.

We need a conservative counterweight to the GOP-e, and these four are the ones to do it.

I don’t give to any of these organizations. Money better spent on individual candidates.

Come on, give Hannity a break. Hannity is the most humble guy on the air. He’ll tell you so himself, repeatedly.

Karl Rove, you stupid jerkweed, you have absolutely no shame. You've squandered donor's money with virtually zilch for results. Worse, you've forgotten that Democrats are the enemy and NOT the Tea Party or the conservative grassroots. Let your PACs die a well deserved financial death. Both they and you are worthless.

I want to know who the "Rat" is that caused them so much angst and suspicion between them, they are not on the side of Liberty and have their own agenda, what ever it is...

Rove’s brilliance was an invention of an outstanding PR campaign and a media desperate for a villain to explain how the nation threw a temper tantrum. Liberals always project. In this case it was insanity on the electorate. Rove was their Dr. Frankenstein, Bush played the monster.

I quit watching Hannity and O’Reilly on Nov. 7, 2012; the day after the Election. I think O’Reilly is Obama’s B**ch and Hannity and Rove are closet lovers.
