Karl Rove's puny haul

[meegbear]

Karl Rove's new fundraising group pledged to raise $52 million to spend on Republican candidates in November. Based on last month's tally, it may take them a little longer to reach their goal -- 21,667 years, to be precise.

Rove's group raised only $200 last month,according to a filing with the Internal Revenue Service. The group, a 527 organization set up by Rove and Ed Gillespie, is called "American Crossroads." But now it would seem American Crossroads is at, well, a crossroads.

1. He Got $1 Million Worth Of Free Air Time...

Rove is in it for himself these days...and making as much money as he can. Screw everyone else. This was a prop set up to promote his book tour and teevee appearances, now that its over, he's on to his next con.

2. But, Rachel Maddow said they had a bunch of pledges for donations!

Pledges. You can take that to the bank, right? ;)

KKKarl Rove had a book signing here a month or so ago, and it was at the suburban Borders book store out south, not the busier one in mid-town. If he can't draw a big crowd in Oklahoma, he can't do it anywhere.

3. "Miserable Failure"

... something he has in common with his former asshole boss.
