Karl Rove was just on the Fox News morning show. When asked who deserves the credit for the Republican tsunami he mentioned Obama but no credit at all for the Tea Party. He also gloated over his forecasting prowess.

Tea Party has a lot to do with State Legislatures flipping from blue to red. Grassroots ground game. Remember, Tea Party is in infancy stage. KR can toot his horn all he wants, but it seems clear that business is not as usual.
Good predictions! Ok now where do I put my money?
I changed the channel when I saw Rove’s face. Glad I did. I have no use for him. Waiting patiently for his comeuppance.
All Rove cares about is keeping the same ruling political class in place.
They all need to be swept aside.
Hannity has had it with me as well. He’ll have this turncoat on all day today. Rush and Levin will have the best commentary on the TEA PARTY blowout today!
Good God, can we just leave him aside and stop shrieking about his buffoonish behavior?
What is wrong with us? The Tea Party has just had a major electoral victory, enough with this petty whining about one commentator.
We’re the winners, let’s act like it, and ignore the buzzing of meaningless commentators. No wonder the cable talking heads think they’re so important.
Sounds to me like the Republican Party through Christine under da bus (and maybe Joe Miller also) to keep them Tea Partiers under control. If so it's war! And Karl Rove you are on the front line.
Yeah but he has three strikes: trashing COD, trashing the tea party, trashing the Chief Mama Grizzly.
Yea, Rove annoys the hell out of me these days. I find myself turning the channel when I see him on the tube ever since his O’Donnell primary meltdown. He just about broke down crying when his RINO good friend and I suspect client lost. But I’d have to say there is a grain of truth in your post’s headline. ZerO and his “Change” is what brought the tea-party movement together in the first place. Of course, Mr insider-establishment conveniently leaves out “the rest of the story...”, as Paul Harvey would say.
Ask him about Bush’s union GM bailout, shafting the bond holders, Paulson’s enriching GS, bailout AIG, and oh, hows that Paulson homeowner program going and lastly about Bush’s boy, Bernanke trashing trillions in thrift savings, pensions, and the dollar.
Hey Karl, do you think Pat Toomey might win in Pa? How about Rubio in Florida?
Just imagine how much better of this country would be if we had Arlen Specter AND Charlie Crist as respected Republican members of the U.S. Senate /s
Not much different from some Freepers who credit the Bushes for giving us Clinton and 0bama.
Rove and his type must be dealt with; however, going after FOX, as some are suggesting, is likely not going to be enough to accomplish what needs to be done. Tea Partiers need to let future candidates know that they will not support ANY candidate who hires Rove or allows him to be associated w/their campaign.
Rove is not an “impartial analyst” as he now likes to portray himself. He is, and always has been, a political hack and “gun for hire.” He serves whatever master will pay him the most money. Karl Rove is about Karl Rove; simple as that. His name needs to become anathema to Tea Partiers and Conservative politics in general.
Rove was the co chair of college Young Republicans, and came to Swampington at age 21, picked by HW “No New Taxes” Bush. He’s been there ever since. Never had a real job save being a establishment coatholder and court vizer. He’s a top, trickled down to the unwashed boobs guy. Elitists, wonk to the core. Not very educated in a classical old school liberal way. He’s lived amongst lawyers, staff and politicians all his life. Anything good, he’s in on, anything bad it because you didn’t follow my advice or the people didn’t ‘get’ our message. Heads I win, tails you lose type of guy.
MittBot Rove and the rest of the old GOP are on a collision course with US. We need to reduce him and them to nothing more than a collection of talking head!
The National Rifle Association threw all its members under the bus by endorsing Democrats from coast to coast.
Rove cost us control of the Senate and probably a few more House races.
FUKR
Agree...no more FoxNews or Hannity when this clown is on.
The Bush family put the GOP in a 20 year decline. If the GOP had embraced and extended Reaganism, instead of reverting back to its elitist roots, the country would be much better off, and Democrats would be a permanent minority.
