A 3.5 + million win in popular vote, gains in the house and senate, the elimination of Dashole? I am impressed with Rove and Hughes.

I'm quite pleased with the outcome, but that doesn't mean Rove did a good job. At this point it's quibbling, but a lot of charges went unanswered in the earlier part of the year that allowed Kerry to continue to gain too much ground and made this closer than it needed to be into the fall and the first debate was not good.
This may apply more to Republicans on the Hill that to Karl Rove, but I want to see us take the offensive more and fight back. We need somebody like Gingrich again.
Assuming we get some retiring justices, I wonder if the Senate should use the "nuclear" option and change the rules to a simple majority during any confirmation. I would try it the way it is now first and dare the D's to block.
