Rove has been involved for years in doing his best to engineer Republican majorities (with varying levels of success, to be sure). He sees a candidate go down that he thinks is a shoe-in for one whom he thinks won’t win, and it’s disappointing to him. Doesn’t mean he’s right, or that he conducted himself in exactly the way I would have preferred, but, yeah, I understand his human reaction, and consider him in the totality of who I think he is and what he’s done, rather than a single snapshot in time.

Surely, you and your ex-Wiccan candidate can appreciate that...

You know, I’ve been in many more heated bulletin board debates than this, and I’ve never felt compelled to call my opponent a POS or contemptible, particularly with someone who professes to believe the same things I do. What motivates a person, anyway?

Rove engineered the RINO majority that lost it all.
And now, Rove is losing it as they lose one after another.

Rove is out.
And he is never allowed back in.

Rove is the one who engineered Big Government “Compassionate Conservatism”, AKA Progressive Republicanism, and pushed hard for Amnesty. People like Castle were his allies.

This nostalgia for the failed “Permanent Republican Majority” is holding you back, and clouding your thinking.
You will come to see Rove for what he is, eventually.

Many people around here realized it long before me.
I was still undecided about Rove up until about 8:30 ET on September 14th. But that answered everything I need to know.

I only called Rove a POS directly.
And what is this about “ex-Wiccan”?
I thought O’Donnell was running for the Senate in Delaware in 2010, not Massachussetts in 1692!

Get a life!
So she played her Led Zeppelin and Stevie Nicks records backwards in the ‘80s... maybe she even listened to Ozzy.
So what? Teenagers ‘dabble’ in a lot of stuff.
