I am a little puzzled that I have not seen any comment regarding Rove's attempt to banish the Tea Party movement from the GOP so they can stop loosing elections.

I find it ironic that Rove is attempting to expel the Right Wing from the party when he was responsible for much of their rise when he needed them and the fact that Rove spent so much money in the 2012 election with very limited results. Does any one on the right see Rove as anything other than more oof the same?

Conservative Victory Project is designed to pump big money into local congressional primaries and prevent Tea Party-endorsed candidates from scoring Senate nominations.

The cleavage between Tea Party insurgent candidacies and the national Republican establishment is becoming a huge liability to their overall national strategy.

The Tea Party has become almost as major a headache to Republican leadership.

Karl Rove...New Age Savior or enemy # 1 for the Tea Party?

Rove's an idiot. Saw him on Fox last weekend. He was trying to explain how he'll 'vet' GOP candidates.

What everyone failed to confront him on was what exactly might be his problem with the way the Tea Party pulled off the 2010 landslide. Didn't he like that? Didn't his precious GOP not benefit from that? Of course they did, but evidently they didn't learn anything from it. Following his political 'insight', 2010 never would have happened.

My vote is that you are a bit more than just a "little puzzled"

there's got to be a candidate with enough charisma to override or rise above the neo-cons and the TEA party in order to combine them for the vote. then drag in some Reagin democrats to seal the deal.

but, alas, right now i don't see a candidate out there of that particular caliber.

Except that Rove was very much a part of that 2010 landslide and had people paid more attention to the primaries the landslide would have been even bigger. Remember it was Rove who started funding Marcko Rubio before most Republicans knew he existed.

Here's the thing, when Democrats start putting money behind a Republican in a primary race you know it's because they think that person will be easy to beat in the general. Rove is there to counter such moves so that Republicans can field candidates who can win the general election.

Karl Rove needs to go away. He's not vary good at backing the winners.

If a canadate isn't for restoring our rightful government they will not get my vote.

Democrats and big government Republicans need to be weeded out.

Bulls eye!

I will do everything in my power to see Team R reduced to 3rd party status.

Their time has come gone.
Hang a "Do Not Resuscitate" sign on 'em and let it die.

They're a bigger problem to America than Team D is.

That's the way to self-destruction. The Tea Party movement was the Republican Party's only hope. If the Party needs to purge anyone, it's anyone associated with the Bush 43 administration. A Republican Party that's just Democrat light is doomed to obsolescence.

As may well be anyone who replies to troll posts.


We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Some Republicans see Karl Rove as a political genius, masterminding winning campaigns at every level on the ballot, including the White House. Others call him a "fake conservative" and a symbol of what's wrong with the party.


Quote
Republican Party's "civil war" Cantor sets out to improve GOP image Cantor: GOP direction not American worry Jindal lays out GOP strategy Priebus: GOP has to be a 'happy party' Republicans look for party's future Jindal lays out GOP strategy Is the Tea Party dead?
"Our party has lost at least six Senate races in the last two election cycles not because of conservative ideas but because of undisciplined candidates and subpar campaigns,"




I think this quotes is true to form...


Quote
"TPPatriots want to save USA. Karl Rove wants to line pockets-Don't Tread on Us! Tea Party bites back-never gives up!" Tea Party Patriots national coordinator Jenny Beth Martin tweeted over the weekend.



My guess is Rove will be see as what he is...A Huckster.

You have the gall to question another's intelligence when you can't even put two simple sentences together without grade school like errors?

Did you mean to write "yours" instead, stupid?

I understand your desire to stretch out your limited skill-set by going for two complete sentences without errors but until you master your first one,I wouldn't take on such a formidable task for yourself.

Maybe one of the 1st graders you teach could come by your basement rental and offer you some tutoring help.
