rove apologizes to palin....in two years, they'll be inseparable

[spanone]

Over the past few months, Fox News political analyst Karl Rove and Fox News contributor Sarah Palin -- perhaps the most prominent would-be GOP presidential kingmaker and one of the top potential presidential candidates -- have been engaged in a running battle on numerous fronts that has been playing out on the pages and airwaves of Rupert Murdoch's papers and networks.

The confrontation escalated last week after Rove criticized Palin's forthcoming Sarah Palin's Alaska program, telling the Daily Telegraph: "With all due candour, appearing on your own reality show on the Discovery Channel, I am not certain how that fits in the American calculus of 'that helps me see you in the Oval Office'." Palin responded by lashing out at Rove on Fox News' On the Record, calling him "paranoid."

HANNITY: So this media stuff about, you know, your comments that maybe she shouldn't be doing the documentary?

ROVE: Well, look, my job is to sort of comment on those kinds of things, and look, I understand she's a conventional politician -- an unconventional politician, and I may be coming at it from a conventional perspective. But you know, I don't think -- you know, I didn't mean offense by it, and I'm sorry if she took it. And the other night she laughed when she saw Hume and I studying Alaska for Dummies and I hope to go there in response to her travelogue on The Discovery Channel.

7. Make no mistake, Sarah Palin is, right this minute, running for president.

If the Republican Party leaders know what's good for them, they will stop her NOW. There are plenty of secrets in Wasilla that I'm sure they know and could use, so now is the time to take her down.

10. Excellent point.

11. He has to play nice with her...

Karl is very good at what he does, but it will take some time to frame it so that her fellow Repubs aren't suspect.

Sarah won't have the necessary gray matter to figure out that it will have been Rove who sabotaged her.

She best find a way to get around, other than planes.

12. We need to make sure she is the Repub candidate

for president. Obama will destroy her and the downticket will obliterate the Repubs.
