Rove is hurting the Republican brand. Just read the comments on Yahoo’s report of the murder comment. The leftists were all talking about violent Republicans.
He has to go.

in the Age of Gabby Giffords, who was only wounded, even Newt Gingrich cruises right on past the fact a federal judge was successfully assassinated by a Leftwingtard greaseball right there next to her!
Hmmm ~ I do believe Mitt Romney is simply ignoring this ~ still, there's an extra layering in the same law that makes it particularly troublesome to even discuss the matter, to say nothing of advocating it when it comes to the top of the ticket!
Frankly, Newt is the only fellow who's ever been a Constitutional officer who has expressed concern over Rove's suggestion that Akin be murdered.
So, what's up here? Where's Carter, Bush, Bush, Clinton, the Algore, Obama, and several dozen other former Speakers of the House, President's pro tem of the Senate, vice president's families, president's families ~ etc?????
Really, is it the case none of these people care?

IMO, if Akin wins his seat, he may give repubs problems when congressional voting is needed.

Karl Rove said that at a private fundraiser for his PAC, and some liberal journalist from Bloomberg snuck in and lied about being a supporter.
She broke the story and was highly unethical.
To: duckman
Despite what they say, if Akin is still in the race in October and is within 4 points, the PACs will start funneling him money, they have no other choice.
To: Berlin_Freeper
Get rid of Rove after the election. The guy has too much cash on hand and influence as part of Crossroads to leave now.
We need to use him like he uses us.

Rove is a RINo saboteur against conservatives

Akin has something like a 93% ACU rating. A reliable conservative vote in Congress.

Still doesn’t excuse him. I don’t care who he was talking to and what situation, it’s simply not something to joke about.

So? Rove of all people should know to assume that anything you say will eventually be used against you.

I would vote for Akin for President over Romney.

Since when is it unethical to report a murder threat against a sitting Congressman -- or for that matter anybody???

What Akin said was, however, far less offensive than the typical freeper behavior on the “naughty teacher” threads.

Rove lost his political “knack” “in 2006. He has been living on his past “electoral expertise for some time now. He is utterly lost and out of touch in the conservative New World of the “Tea Party”. He is even demonstrating his “dullness” in the world of punditry. He needs to leave the DC area and the limelight and get back in touch with what is happening out n “fly over” country. But he won't! Probably because he can't do anything else!
