” And there is one more thing the Rovitects did all too well: By persuading the candidates he bankrolled to run from conservative principles rather than on them, Mr. Rove thoroughly alienated evangelicals, Tea Party activists, a legion of young Ron Paulists and just about everyone else who might have provided GOP candidates a decisive edge had they been given even the slightest reason to go to the polls.”

If Rove isn’t on the DNC payroll, shame on him!

For my take on Rove, years ago:

Karl Rove--Dysron, Quack or Mole, and links to other articles with that one. The man is utterly clueless how to actually lead people to a correct understanding of the issues. He only chases after what was in the last poll sampling--absolutely pathetic.

Compassionate Conservatism means a kinder, gentler loss.
