No its not!!!
Listen up! Karl Rove is NOT the enemy. Yes, hopefully he’s wrong about Christine but he is supposrting wholeheardly every other Republican candidate.
But did you not know that the Dems would throw everything at the Republican candidate who was running to get Biden’s seat?
The RINO, Mike Castle, didn’t have any skeletons that hadn’t already been aired over the years.
Christine, even though we love her, has not been investigated fully so its bound to happen. I think that is what Rove was is concerned about.
If she turns out to be a mess, as Rove is concerned about, then it will hurt the credibility of the Tea Party. I pray that doesn’t happen.
I WANT Christine to be successful, too and I hope Rove is wrong but he is not the enemy and folks here shouldn’t trash him the way they are doing.
Good post, bump.
I understand your view, but here’s another problem Rove has. What if she loses because of the non-scandals or ‘mini-scandals’ he cited? What if little else comes out and Coons beats her? Rove would be at fault. The only way Rove comes out clean is if she’s exposed in some Rezko-level scandal. Otherwise, he might as well be Alec Baldwin’s drinking buddy.
The once “magnificent bastard” has jumped the political shark and earned his new moniker in spades. With one felt swoop he whitewashed all past successes as he accepted his 30 pieces of demoRat silver.
Always Republican but never Conservative Karl is a misogynist member of the beltway old boys club, like so many other aged and washed up Repubs that are desperately trying to cling to their last shreds of credibility.
To conclude, this “has-been” just broke his last strand and I could not think of a more fitting title than Tokyo Rove. I will never refer to him in any other way ever again and hope he fades into the trashbin of irrelevancy.
Sincerely,
JerseyDvl from Texas who has no horse in this race but is fed up with the hypocritical double standards and blatant sexism.

I watched Mr. Rove's initial comments, he certainly seemed highly agitated, seemingly much more than just being "concerned".
In all the times I have seen him on-camera in the past, I can't remember ever seeing him that agitated (or even mildly animated) about any Democratic candidate and/or their background/electability.
Clearly Mr. Rove could have voiced his "concerns" in a much more rational manner (if it was necessary to even voice them in public at all).
Rove may not be the enemy, but he certainly has not yet given a fair and balanced assessment of this race. He has focused on her “baggage” with little or no specifics.
The media apparently aired this baggage and the Delaware voters shrugged it off.
His assessment should have included at least a reference to her opponent’s baggage and looniness(Coons). He also did not need to be so vociferous. His whole demeanor would lead one to believe that there is an interesting backstory, and wonder if he has some unreported/unknown interest in this contest.
The establishment Republicans underestimated the aniti-incumbent mood, and have failed to recruit what the voters considered to be an attractive candidate(in several states).
Castle’s voting record seems to have been quite objectionable to the Republican voters, GOP should have known this and recruited a Washington outsider with less baggage.
She ran 6 years ago, and only now these things are being revealed-why?
Castle was a parasite living off the taxpayer for 45 years!
His attacks on her were due to the fact that she beat his 'boy' Castle.
Then Rove shouldn't have trashed O'Donnell they way he did on Hannity. Too bad his RINO boy Castle didn't win. He should have congratulated her, and then threw his support to her. Not spend the next 3 days on the spew circuit trashing her further. When RINO’s win we're supposed to support them. Apparently when we win, RINOS like ROVE have a hissy fit. I lost all respect for him. He may not be the enemy, but we don't need friends like him either.
