Unquestionably, Rove is a sympathizer to the Republicans. And yet, people still listen to him even though there is a high chance that his statements are meant to stack the deck for the repub candidate. I don’t get it !

It is mindboggling why he is still referred to as a genius. He barely/didn't beat a pre-oscar cardboard cutout in 2000. He barely beat another stiff in 2004 after claiming Shrub would get at least 300 electorals. 2006 he knew the real math. In Republican bizzaro world, the more you screw up the better off you are. Anyway, when we own all three branches of government, we should thank Karl for being such a clueless dumbass, but enough of an unethical weasel to fool the Repubs. I would call him Bush's Ass, but I think Bush's brain is actually a bigger insult.

RIOT CONTROL

We’ve got counties in this area with less than 1.5 people/sq. mi.

Think about that.
