Karl Rove: Why Hillary Won

[question everything]

I don't care about Rove's opinion and did not read the article.

However, the opinion pages of the WSJ are now free, so if anyone is interested, here is the URL

1. Not an opinion I'll ever want. But thanks for offering.

[avrdream]

2. He is always suspect but there were a few good points in there.

Probably why he has had his position for so many years - SOME of the things he says make sense.

3. Oh, he's smart as hell.

And he knows politics. Its just a matter of questioning what in the article he believes and what he wants US to believe...

6. He's NOT "smart as hell." He's just completely amoral.

His temporary success came from doing things that no decent human being would even think of, which is why he got his reputation for cleverness.

9. But he was able to pull them off because he was smart.

Smartness is not a virtue, it manifests in all different kinds of people in all different kinds of ways. Some people are dumb in some ways and smart in others, like being gifted at evil and impaired at seeing the effects of kindness.

4. I hate to see him anywhere near elections...

even if it is only to comment.

He IS chicken entrails.

5. if this is the same article someone was quoting on tv (olbermann maybe?)

he talked about obama and had a basketball reference and a lazy reference

i just checked and that's the article.

sounds like he's pushing a little racism here--(he's such a pr*ck)

[TheWraith]

7. It's like a more subtle version of Limbaugh.

Racist codewords and phrases spiced into the rest of his propaganda.

[orleans]

8. absolutely. n/t

10. Nice of you to post it for those who can stomach

Rove's words. Next thing we know he will be held up as a brilliant journalist. I just could not read it. I had hopes that he would be spirited away to a dark cave somewhere, forever.
