After Newt Gingrich was declared the winner of the South Carolina primary Saturday night, Karl Rove suggested that the candidate has CNN’s John King to thank for his victory in the Palmetto State.

“Taking on the media is always good in a Republican primary,” Rove said on Fox News. “John King couldn’t have set up the question in a more positive way for Gingrich to just nail it and haul it right out of the park.”

Only a little twerp like Rove could say, “...haul it out of the park.” What a loser! Get this creep off TV and out of our lives!

Rove is just copying me. I said earlier today on a thread that King’s rude question was actually a gift for Gingrich.

Carl Rove and his Mini-Me, Dana Perino, are disgusting. They are STILL working for their disgraced ex-bosses, the BUSH Klan, trying to spin Romney into office.

If King put Gingrich in the victor’s seat in South Carolina, he and his boss made Obama the victor in 2008, along with John McCain, who, interestingly enough is ALSO backing Romney.

BTW Mitt making a total fool of himself on Fox now.

One quote. "I'll repeal Obamacare."

And replace it with what Mitt?

I'm still not voting for Newt or Santorum or Paul.

OOo...Mitt just said shining city on a hill....just like RR. What a piece of work.

Karl Rove and everyone at Fox News need to take a good hard look in the mirror. After almost 3 months of pushing Romney and bashing Newt, they only served to create momentum for Gingrich; exactly opposite from what they wanted. I lost a lot of respect for FNC. Romney screwed up all by himself and having Fox in his corner hurt, not helped, him.

Karl Rove, Charles Krauthammer, Juan Williams, and Brit Hume, plus the clowns on Fox & Friends are eating a lot of crow today.

Listening to Mitt’s sour grapes speech. It looks like:
Mitt’s Super PAC (that he won’t admonish): 0
Newt’s Super PAC (that he did admonish): 1

Karl Rove always has that constipated look on his face. Eat some prunes Karl, they work wonders!

The people on Foxnews is about ready to cry. Brett who does the Special report, was caught about to break down. Huckabee looks shell-shocked that Mitt lost. The insiders are wanting Rick S to stay in—says a lot to me ...

In turning the questions by Juan Williams and John King into opportunities for himself, Newt Gingrich did a masterful job of rhetorical ju jitsu, the art of manipulating the opponent's force against himself.
