Rove plan: The GOP Targets State Legislatures He who controls redistricting can control Congress.
The guy has not gone away.
He has not given up.

Read the article, see the future.

"Next year, legislatures in the 44 states with more than one congressional seat will adjust their districts' boundaries to account for changes in population."

I found this in the WSJ, which is a paid sub.
but here is full article on Rove's site..the guy is worth keeping an eye on.

1. I guess it's not the most thrilling of subjects, but it's damned important.

2. This would be a good strategy for dems to adopt as well.
Along with encouraging teabaggers to avoid census takers (remember, it's a socialist plot to create a register of god fearing white people for later extermination.)

6. The problem is the Dems do not seem to get on with it.
Hate to say it, but Rove's anal-retentive qualities are quite good, he is very experienced at
creating database heaven of the smallest details of vote trends.
I have copies of his stuff for the 2004 election. EVERY precinct for EVERY county for EVERY state, reams and reams of numbers and % of voters, predictions sliced and diced a dozen ways.
I have not heard of anyone who spent that much time and money and detail on elections and issues
as he does.
And he has not stopped for one second, is still at it.
Just wish he were a Dem.

7. This is Karl being true to form
He worked diligently on these very things while in the White House. That is what all that to do about the firings of the US Attorneys was about.
