Are you tired of the Republican establishment yet? If not, you just might be after reading this story.
American Crossroads, a Republican Super PAC started by Karl Rove, a relic of the George W. Bush administration, has begun running ads designed to prop up Josh Shapiro, a Democratic candidate running for governor in Pennsylvania. His Republican opponent, Doug Mastriano, is currently trailing him by about 10 percentage points according to the latest RealClearPolitics average.
But it appears Rove and his buddies are seeking to strengthen Shapiro’s lead over Mastriano by running a television ad that uses Democratic Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman as a foil. The video features footage of Fetterman claiming to be tough on crime. Then, it moves to a woman who says, “John Fetterman’s record on crime is crazy.”

Rove and company probably figure Oz would be more 'malleable', while Mastriano would not be.
And I would not be surprised if, in the background, there is a fear that Reoublicans could be exposed as part of the 2020 fraud if more people like Mastriano get into office where they can actually do something.
I've been on this forum long enough to remember the "Rove you magnificent bastard" comments. I always though he was a snake in the same vein as Romney, McConnell, Ryan (other names could be listed, but you get the idea).
I may not be as certain as the author with respect to where things are headed, but cautiously optimistic. Maybe the Republuc can be salvaged for the next few generations, but for certain it can't continue the way its headed, and thescumbags have got to go, no matter what party.
When I became an independent, rather than a Republican, people like Rove bother me less. I want nothing to do with them
good observation. The Election Industrial Complex is flush with money. Money does the talking.
“What did you expect? I’m a scorpion.” Said the scorpion.
‘The LOVE of money is the root of ALL evil...’
White Board Baldy: You can’t win unless you are GOPe. And just to prove it, Ill sabotage you.
Umm White Board Baldy, we know what you are doing. Your guys, your candidates and your organization are reduced to no more now than sabotage. Nobody is voting for them. NO BODY.
I think these people are delusional about the amount of influence they currently have. I think the process is well underway to completely washing away all the Rove types over the next few years.
They don’t even see it coming. I think Liz Cheney really thought her vote to impeach would cause an avalanche of impeachment votes. They should have looked at Jeb Bush’s 1% and had a moment of clarity, but they completely ignored it.
The Uniparty is much easier to spot these days.
Agree but not an optimist. We need a loud, strong, presence like Trump’s was on twitter during his first election and thereafter. People need one clear voice but Trump’s has been methodically silenced and Rove, Ryan,Cheney, et. al., have been featured on news outlets now. They are all charlatans. Trump exposed them. We don’t see Trump on the news anymore. And there’s no one like him with his financial power and his fearlessness combined.
Huh. He really is a turd blossom.
Over the years you start to wise up.
We defended Bush, the Iraq War, Karl Rove....we were duped. These were not conservatives...these were globalist war mongers.
Ike was right about the military Industrial complex.
Once Afghanistan was done its on to Ukraine and more debt
I remember bashing Rove here years ago like in 2002 and 2004. But then he was popular around here that magnificent bastard. I always thought he was an idiot and doing things that weren’t good for the long term.
These Bush leeches need to GO AWAY.
Rove is a conman.
there was definitely some repub participation in the 2020 steal in AZ
Yep, the McCain cartel doing dirty deeds
The RINOs are dirty. They will either all hang together, or they will hang separately. That’s how they are acting.
Mastriano, as Governor, wouldn’t support stollen PA elections. Oz would have no say in it as a US Senator. What has occurred might be exposed and a steal in 2024 would be in jeopardy, so Mastriano is in the crosshairs.
Where are the FReepers who posted meme after meme of “Rove, you magnificant bastard!” just a few years ago? He was a fat globalist swine back then and he has added TRAITOR to that description now.
Pennsylvania is going to be a mess in the weeks after the election. there will be no decision and lots of cheating.
Sounds to me like Tokyo Rove doesnt want a Governor that would pound home stricter voting laws in PA.
I wonder if that’s because RINOs cheat too. It explains a lot.
