Comments on: Rove On His Legacy And The GOP's Future

Retiring White House Adviser Says That He Feels Good About GOP Candidates

[toldyouso21]

Rove defended his political tactics, which opponents have labeled as divisive.

"You cannot be a candidate like President Bush was in 2004 and get 60 million votes for president, more than any other candidate for president in history," he said. "I know the opposition talks about playing to the base, and I want them to keep thinking that''s the right strategy. But you win elections like this president won in 2000 and 2002 and 2004 by broadening the coalition, by getting more people to register and to vote and by persuading people who might have been inclined to the other side to come across for you."

..."and," Rove added with a smirk and a wink: "it never hurts to have the head of the leading electronic voting machines in the country promise to deliver a state, or to have strong enough majorities in most states to demand that those machines be used and that absolutely NO paper trail be allowed to prove who voted which way" LMAO

Like Bush and Cheney refusing to testify under oath about 9/11 or anything else or for outing an agent or for trying to sell ports to Dubai, or for Halliburtons move to the ME or for Bush repeatedly saying Bin Laden was not a priority in the war on terror--there is just a bunch of stuff that no matter what, they can never explain away. LMAO even more.

"Rove disputed suggestions that his brand of politics was intended to play to the Republican base and demonize political opponents."


Dispute all he wants. Rove demonized anyone who got in Bush''s way, whether it was McCain in the South Carolina Republican primary or Kerry in the general election.

The American sheep bought it lock, stock, and barrel.

Doesn''t this fatso look like the "squeal like a pig" dudette in the movie Deliverance?

"*** Blossom" Rove was an excellent student of Mussolini and should be provided the same glorious exit.

UUGGHHH -- to hear this thug speak is to despise what he has to say, who he represents and all who supprt and defend him.

On a personal note - what kind of woman was desperate enough to marry this thug? Yuck - getting into bed with him must be like bedding down with a big soft gooey bovine-faced in-the-closet homosexual poof. I mean come on - his is money worth all taht? EWWWWWWW

Listening to republican strategy, they''ve given up on ''08 and are working towards ''10 -- Surrender Monkey''s

The Shrub''s nickname for Rove is the most appropriate descriptor possible.
