Rove has been a bit “off” since the 2010 election. Not sure that he can or will regain our respect.
He’s real pouty and vengeful, since his true colors and character were laid bare naked for conservatives to discover.
Rove is pushing a Mutt Romney ticket and everything he says or does is to further that goal.
So why would he say Palin is getting in? Simple, he sees Rick Perry gaining support daily at a rate that is impossible for Romney to slow down. By saying Palin is going to run, he hopes that big money supporters will hold off on getting behind Perry, and wait to see what Palin will do.
I doubt she is going to run, just like Ryan who was thinking about it but backed off. Had Perry not got in they both would have. Now that there is a strong anti-Romeny running ( Perry ), both will hold off running this time.
