Sarah Palin and her allies have not taken kindly to comments by Karl Rove this week that the former Alaska governor is not ready to be president, firing back at the former Bush White House political adviser in a fight that illustrates the simmering tensions within the Republican Party.
Palin herself made a crack about Rove Thursday but refrained from making pointed comments. But nationally syndicated conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin went after Rove with passion.
“I have to say, nice guy aside, this guy needs to get off the stage. He is yesterday’s operative,” Levin said. “There is a movement going on in this country, a movement that is trying to do serious things and substantive things, and this guy’s just running around, gassing off at the mouth, attacking some of the most conservative candidates in the field.”
“You know, Karl Rove is sort of becoming our Joe Biden, how many times he puts his foot in his mouth,” said Levin, an attorney who was chief of staff to the attorney general in the Reagan administration. “I think he’s got a Joe Biden problem.”

Let us not forget that “the architect” was an architect of the “compassionate conservative” administration that stood by as the “Republican” Congress spent our money and the GOP’s reputation on pork, earmarks, bridges to nowhere … and pushed amnesty … and the “prescription drug benefit” … and supported Arlen Spector and Lincoln Chafee in Republican PRIMARIES.
Rove is very much a “ruling class” Republican, and part of the problem/
I wouldn’t call Karl a “ruling class” Republican, but he does need to be considered a Fox News commentator, not a Republican or conservative operative. He apparently considers his job to be to give his opinion, and he does so without softening it to fit our sensibilities or to “help” our cause. This works very well when his opinion is being spoken within the secret confines of a campaign; not so well when it comes out in public.
