Karl Rove Advising McCain Campaign

Politico:

John McCain is getting much more than President Bush's endorsement and fundraising help for his campaign. He's getting Bush's staff.

It's no secret that Steve Schmidt, Bush's attack dog in the 2004 election, and Mark McKinnon, the president's media strategist, are performing similar functions for McCain now.

Not even Karl Rove can make a silk purse out of a pigs lug!

All he can do is start terrorising the people, but with John, people are scared already!

[zizyphus]

There are no words in English vile enough to describe Karl Rove.

Impeach the Criminals Bush and Cheney. And throw in Rove for good measure.

[mediamarv]

No big deal, just a couple piles of shite sitting around talking.

Rove is also advising Clinton. He loaned her his dirty tricks playbook.

[Fathoms]

Now here's something to be scared about . . .

That's how ironic politics is these days. Apparently Rove is doing warm-up work for the Clintons. With McCain and Clinton being such good friends, one has to wonder what deal they already agreed on. Maybe a 'bi-partisan' ticket to 'heal the nation'? They might as well, since they're such gung-ho warmongers. The petty details of work for the American people's lives can be worked out, right?

Power to the PEOPLE!

These are the people that destroyed McCain when he ran against Bush. They perverted his time as a POW to make him look like he was conspiring with the enemy!!! Now they are buddys!!!!! WTF?!!

Has anyone told him that 70%+ of us HATE Bush? Why does he think he can win by becoming him?

Carl Rove is the devil. The simple fact that McCain would even have a conversation with Rove is enough to make me RUN from McCain as fast as possible and the rest of the country should follow!

Be prepared for BS terror alerts, swift votes, and the total destruction of someone or some people which oppose McCain. It's already starting.

Stay the Course!

I suppose we should have seen this coming. The once independent-minded McCain is now fully transformed into a GOP goon.

Perhaps Obama running against Hillary's scare tactics are a trial by fire in preparation for his eventual fight against McCain and Rove.

The people of a country are always greater than its leaders. It is the combination of spirit, determination, and talents of the people that make a nation great.

Americans must get beyond political polarization. We must nurture our compassion toward other people and animals...and we must make math, science and engineering education a priority. Our economy and future depend on it.

The Democrats had better put their foot down on the dirty trick king this time around. I can't believe he can't be disgraced, or indicted, or just removed from the political scene via some scandal or crime by his own doing. Time to hire a few detectives to dig up this guy's dirty laundry and put it out to air for all to see (and smell). Enough is enough - This election is improtant enough that he needs to be neutralized.

Rove is also advising the Clinton campaign.

How low can an ego-maniac stoop to get attention? The slime that covers the Republican Party is beyond comprehension. Hurry Lord, Jesus, please help us.

[Colmore]

They HAVE to get McCain in the WH to avoid being tried for all the crimes they have committed. Rove is a slimy little troll. Didn't he quit to "spend more time with family"?? Whose family, McCain's?? McCain is too old, too sick, too smarmy, too underqualified for the office. Anyone who thinks the last 7 years have been good should vote for McCain, because he is Georgie all over again.
