The Age Of Karl Rove
I wrote a lengthy article on Karl Rove politics at http://teenageenthusiast.blogspot.com Check it out. Its not that great...but I tried.

I would paste it here, but I think its too long. So heres the jist of it:

I. Be Prepared.
-it is going to get ugly, be prepared to fight

II. A Record Of Sleeze.
-A timeline of Rove's dirty style

III. The Same Old Tactics.
-A Classification of some of his more evil moves.

4. I read it...


it's good.

Rove is also a protege, if I'm not mistaken , of the infamous Lee Atwater; as is Bush himself.

Confirms all you say and adds some very scary examples.

Karl Rove in a Corner

Karl Rove is at his most formidable when running close races, and his skills would be notable even if he used no extreme methods. But he does use them. His campaign history shows his willingness, when challenged, to employ savage tactics
