The Veracity of Karl Rove's Political Analysis is Suddenly Suspect
2010-09-15 06:35:00 -By Warner Todd Huston During Delaware's primary night Karl Rove was one of the analysts that sat with Sean Hannity on Fox News hashing out the results of the polls in several states. During his comments on Delaware's winning candidate Christine O'Donnell, Rove eviscerated her as a loser even as she had just won the primary. Rove claimed that O'Donnell is "nutty" and came straight out saying that O'Donnell cannot win the election in November. Now, Rove is certainly entitled to his opinion and if he truly believes that O'Donnell cannot win in the general, then he should feel free to say so and we should accept it as such. But in this case we have a problem believing that...

Karl Rove's Book Comes Out on the Same Day as Mine!
2010-01-21 14:24:00 AP Photo/Carlos Osorio, FileBehold my lucky stars! As if it weren't enough that my one and only dream of publishing a book has come true ("Publish This Book" from Sourcebooks, 2010), it comes out on the exact same day--Tuesday, March 9--as Karl Rove's book! I wish I could say that I planned this, but the truth is that it's an aligning of the stars, a correspondence of the fates, an intertwining of psychic fortuity so amazing, so staggering, so marvelous that it shakes the foundations of my humbled soul to its very core. To call Rove a personal hero is something of an understatement. Even the title of his book, "Courage and Consequence," makes me want to tattoo my face...

Andrew Sullivan Says's Karl Rove Is "Playing" Netroots Who Cover Palin - He
2008-09-13 16:12:00 Blogger Andrew Sullivan advances the idea that we liberal bloggers are being "played" by Karl Rove in that we're giving too much coverage to McCain Palin gaffes and not enough to the good deeds of Barack Obama. There's a good point and I think it's a byproduct of the newness of the addition of Palin, but we've also got to get back in to the habit of telling Barack and Joe Biden news. I have worked to do this myself, but we have to counter the online effort of the GOP, which is spamming YouTube of late with these Palin videos. Someone on a video channel is working to pump up views artifically and dump Palin videos. What's good about this is that we all will get sick of her that much faster.

The Power of Karl Rove
2008-07-28 16:03:00 Photo by BlakeBy Blake WylieFor those of you out there who believe that Karl Rove can pull the strings that bind the universe to change world events, I have a bit of a true, personal story for you.I was doing pictures at the Tennessee Republican Statesmens Dinner on Saturday night (yes, the one that everyone is up in arms about). I got to meet Mr. Rove. He is a very cordial person who has a great sense of humor. He always had a joke and was ready with a quick response to everything. He was quite different than what I expected, and not the "evil architect" that he is portrayed as.Both me and my fiance were there, and when we met Mr. Rove, he asked if I had nose bleeds a lot. "Why?" I asked. "Because you're marrying too high." I had to agree with him, and it was a joke my fiance found quite funny as well.The night went on without incident. It was a great event for all in attendance (read more here). Everything was fine...until the next morning. I haven't had any nose-bleeds in a whi...

2008-04-17 21:18:00 I missed last night’s “debate” between Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. From what I can tell this morning, that was the smartest thing I did all day.

We’ll start at Crooks & Liars, which has video of the debacle. Next let’s check in at the ABC “News” Web site, where the network’s viewers are still engaging in one of the bloodiest nard-stompings I’ve ever seen.

2008-04-04 14:38:00 TV Newser: "Karl Rove, right? The former Bush deputy chief of staff and current Fox News contributor is featured in a lengthy Q&A by Lisa DiPaulo on GQ's web site today. It's Lisa DePaulo, not DiPaulo. I've known Miz Lisa since her short tenure at Washingtonian Magazine. Her piece (in which she interviewed me) on dating men in DC was the best-selling (and controversial) cover in, I think, 1992. Lisa regaled readers with her tales of narcissistic DC men whose idea of a date was sitting around watching videos of their "Meet The Press" appearances. So Lisa, a brilliant, uniquely inquisitive ballsy journalist, beautiful frustrated bachelorette, and a fellow Capricorn, Scorpio rising like me, bailed Powertown after six months and went back to Philadelphia mag. Then to NYC. Wrote for JFK Jr's "George" mag, NY mag, Vanity Fair, and more. Now at GQ here is Lisa's piece on Karl Rove from whence the egregious misspelling came.
