Why do I say that?
He always accuses his opponents of what he's going to do:
On Face the Nation a couple of weeks ago, Karl Rove argued that if Obama picked Tim Kaine for VP, it would be for purely political reasons and would ignore the responsibilities of the presidency.
On the show, Rove said the following -
I think he's going to make an intensely political choice, not a governing choice," Rove said. "He's going to view this through the prism of a candidate, not through the prism of president; that is to say, he's going to pick somebody that he thinks will on the margin help him in a state like Indiana or Missouri or Virginia. He's not going to be thinking big and broad about the responsibilities of president.
Talking about Tim Kaine, Rove went on to say -
With all due respect again to Governor Kaine, he's been a governor for three years. I don't think people could really name a big, important thing that he's done. He was mayor of the 105th largest city in America.
So if he were to pick Governor Kaine, it would be an intensely political choice where he said, `You know what? I'm really not, first and foremost, concerned with, is this person capable of being president of the United States? What I'm concerned about is, can he bring me the electoral votes of the state of Virginia, the 13 electoral votes in Virginia?'
Picking Palin is just a way to build a bogus narrative to use as a fig leaf in stealing another election. "Game Changing" & "Maverick" & "Women Voters". It doesn't matter that narrative is bogus, the Mediawhores are already running with it.
