The Washington Times ^ | January 7, 2018 | Bradford Richardson

GOP strategist Karl Rove says Republicans are in danger of losing their majority in the House of Representatives in the 2018 midterm elections.

Asked how much trouble Republicans are in, Mr. Rove responded, “Big trouble.”

“The president’s approval rating is in the high 30s, and the Republicans are 24 seats in the House away from losing their majorities,” he said on “Fox News Sunday.”

He can scarcely put together a sentence in his native language.

Wasn’t 2004 the last time Rove was right about anything?

I don’t think they get to 24.

In fact, if the dinner table issues become positives, then they lose seats.

I’ll have a better fix on our opportunities at the end of next month but, right now their product is anger, fiction and merely being in the opposition.

Not an idea of making something better for everyone.

I think they lose.

Drumming up business by selling fear so some GOPe candidates and/or Fox will keep hiring him.

Actually this is a decided Improvement with what people like Rover than saying. Up until now they’ve been saying that the Republicans were definitely going to lose the house now it’s just a possibility.

The Rats have less chance of winning the House then they do the Senate.

Rove trying to stay relevant by saying something that makes a splash - saying something stupid but it makes a media splash stupid or not.

Rove stopped being political relevant in 2004.

He should go back to Texas and start a chicken ranch.

Yeah, he’s a fool. But even a blind squirrel gets a nut every now and then.

I live in VA, one of those states that just had an election. Our state house went from a 66/34 R supermajority to a 51/49 tie. The R faction lost pretty much every race it could lose. Those who think the 2018 election portends great things for the R faction are whistling past the graveyard.

Politics is a scam and we’re suckers for playing.

Let me guess: Rove needs money & figures the usual dupes will pony up.

One wonders what this energizer bunny runs on, sucking energy out of every room he enters.

Rove should be persona non gratis by now, but he still seems to be the darling of far to many.

Rove helped W screw the Republicans in 2006 and helped give the WH to Obama in 2008. Why would any GOP official listen to him now?

Because they want to lose? And the truth is, they do. Being in the “loyal minority” offers lots of perks and not much work.

Politics is a scam and we’re suckers for playing.

Who precisely does Rove think is still listening to him?

Porky Pig Rove is disappointed that he’s no longer feeding at the taxpayer’s trough.

Go find another pig pen to play in, Karl.
