Karl Rove on Fox was ranting like...

[Mutiny In Heaven]

a guy who was really, really worried about more than just the loss of an election. It was like a Mafia movie; Rove playing the weasel with a mouth far bigger than his ability to deliver what he's promised one of the families.

1. And now everyone knows it

It's got to be getting harder for him to convince anyone to ignore realilty and believe him when he claims he has his own math and can deliver. Wouldn't it be funny if it was his own side who finally put an end to him?

2. Rove's credibility as a king maker was shredded last night and he knows it. nt.

[Sherman A1]

3. Hardly

Mr. Rove is simply doing theatrics at this point.

2012 was a test with the Citizens United Ruling for 2016 which they fully intend to win.

[horsedoc]

7. A test for what

To see who can spend the most and still lose? Its not like they held anything back this election cycle. The change in voter demographics is what is dooming repugs

[Sherman A1]

8. To game the system

to see where they can push and get away with it and where they cannot. How much the media will follow their line (given enough money tossed their way).

2012 was going to be near impossible from the start for them. 2016 after another 4 years of planning, obstruction and an open seat in the WH will be much less so.

12. Sadly I think Sherm makes a very good point

A flip-flopping corporate vulture shouldn't have finished within 2% of President Obama in the popular vote. Endless lies and limitless spending got rMoney far closer to the White House than he ever should have been. In 2016 who knows what will happen.

14. On the other side, Obama had faced years of unjust fire

been forced to work with a moribund economy, a congress that has been unprecedentedly obstructionist, a fact masked by spineless pundits eager to paint the scene as "business as usual", billions of dollars of money precision targeted to bring about his defeat and the usual human problem of impatience and ignorance.

He DESERVED to win by an enormous margin, but taking into account the obstacles, the fact that he's done it at all is a great thing.

Koch, Adelson & Rove had a perfect storm, but they still couldn't do it.

4. Rove is done.

[onecent]

5. It was like the best movie scene ever...I NEVER watch Fox but out of curiousity

went there as they called it for Obama. He was like a little kid that didn't get his candy and he was having A FIT AND FALLING IN IT. One lady moderator, don't know her name was shown by a tv camera walking, and walking, over wires, past small crowds of workers, around computers to a room where some men were together and she stuck a mic in one of their faces and asked them (not in these words)..."are you sure these are the numbers, blabbity"..
They looked VERY PROFESSIONAL and very sure of themselves for the job they had
done and the numbers they had come up with to project Obama..it was almost
too embarrassing to watch as Rove made her to it.

I didn't think Mitt was gonna concede last night. I was truly shocked...
I AM SOO HAPPY!!!!!!!!

[MuttLikeMe]

11. Did her see her wandering around the studio

looking so hurt? lol

[modrepub]

6. I'll only be happy

when people like Rove are replaced by younger cheaper personnel and they to deliver sandwiches or pizza to make ends meet. This scenario happened to several family, friends and coworkers of mine.

[NewJeffCT]

9. Rove knows that if the GOP keeps pissing on Latino voters

they're going to keep losing, and by bigger & bigger margins.

[calico1]

15. I would have voted for Obama anyway but

anger at being talked about like I am a second class citizen, not American, all this thinly veiled racism, certainly fueled me. NOTHING could have kept me from voting, even if like that pregnant woman, I was giving birth while voting. LOL

I think a lot of Latinos felt the same way.

[SoFlaJet]

10. That's the way it looked to me too

He looked like a guy who spent 2 billion Mob dollars with no return and he seemed SCARED

[reflection]

13. I actually thought this also. He behaved as if

he was on the hook for a big loan or something. Waaaay too personally invested in the outcome.

[Andy Stanton]

16. But to Rove's Credit

He didn't predict a Romney landslide like those buffoons George Will, Michael Barone, Dick Morris and Unskewed Polls, who have zero credibility at this point.

[ratzerman]

17. I have to see this...

Anyone have a youtube link to this whole meltdown? I had to turn it off as soon as Rove started stammering like he had a gun pointed to his head.
