I beg to differ with you, if you are Demorats your talking points are sent out by the DBM 24-7, if you are republicans, they are not mentioned unless they have a gaffe to criticize. we cannot possibly be talking about the same DBM. That they push all the Dem talking points and hide the Pubbies is a no brainer..........

I didn't say Political PR wasn't challenging when the Television and Newspapers aren't really willing to spread your side of the story.

But the Political PR game wasn't even played by the Republicans. How many times did you or I sit there and wonder where the outrage was over the NYT leaks? Why didn't the Republicans call the Democrats on some of their rediculous issues? The first time I saw this happen for me was with the backslap for Sandy Burger. This was a perfect opportunity for Political haymaking and the Republicans were too 'gentlemanly' to play it.

One aspect of Political PR is taking an issue that can be exploited and exploit it. The other is not letting an issue go on and on and on. I fault the Republicans as much as the MSM for the Plame affair. And Abu Grabe. Never did I hear one Republican say it was a bunch of Political haymaking by the Democrats. There were better ways to handle these issues and take advange of others.

I'm beggining to think it was Rove that doesn't know how to play the game and I think he should step down. Neither did either the House of Senate leaders. In fact there just wasn't any leadership in the Political PR arena.

That's just my humble opinion

#868, I would not defend Karl Rove on his choices except for one thing. He has been a serious target for the last three years,and has been hampered by that. I don't think that even Karl Rove knew the hateful,scratching,biting and kicking the Anti-American rats would do to our Country and Soldiers to get back their power. I believe they would kill their own Mothers if they stood in the way. They have no scruples,no ethics and no Love for anything except themselves.
