Karl Rove Is An Idiot, Mike Allen Is Worse

mike allenKarl Rove, with lapdog Mike Allen in the pro-GOP Politico, 8/14/07:

When asked about the House Democratic leadership, Rove said: “This last election was a very close election, and I think they misread the results. They think they’ve got some mandate to raise taxes and blow up the budget. It’s just unbelievably out of touch with reality.”

Karl Rove, October of 2006:

When host Robert Siegel pointed out to Rove that major public opinion polls showed Democrats with a significant advantage over Republicans during an October 24 interview broadcast on NPR’s All Things Considered, Rove told Siegel, “You may end up with a different math, but you’re entitled to your math, I’m entitled to the math.” Rove also said, “I’m looking at all these [races], Robert, and adding them up, and I add up to a Republican Senate and Republican House.”

As usual, Mike Allen – who has professed his admiration for conservatives like Matt Drudge and Hugh Hewitt and who called Democrats “bloodthirsty dogs” – didn’t bother to ask Rove what orifice he pulls his “analysis” out of. Mike Allen just wrote it down like the good little worshipful White House stenographer he is, then sauntered away satisfied with his big “get”.

    i don’t know why CNN keeps inviting Allen for his “expert” biased opinion..looks like they want to be a Faux look alike!

    Rove is a Machiavellian mastermind..I don’t think he is just going to fad away..this guy has some tricks up his sleeve..just wait till the primaries start.
