Karl Rove sighting!!! (Let's work this story backwards)
http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=694&e=4&u=/ap/20040708/ap_on_el_pr/presidential_ap_poll

So Mr.Rove is quoted directly in an AP Poll story that defies logic and recent trends. As a "poll tracker" you have to believe the good with the bad. When was the last time you saw him quoted directly?

The conditions for a Bush victory are all there — a strong economy, an improving position in the global war on terror and a growing sense that there are sharp and clear differences in values between the two campaigns," said top Bush adviser Karl Rove.

He probably wouldn't throw his name in there unless he was sure what the result and all the touchstone phrases are used.

This paragraph preceeds the Rove quote. Taken directly out of his notebook with generalities and "The sun rose yet again today under PRESIDENT Bush's leadership" spin.

Bush has been buoyed by a stream of economic data pointing to an economic recovery, including a plunge in unemployment insurance applications reported Thursday by the Labor Department (news - web sites).

Now someone explain to me where these numbers came from and what in the hell that means.

Bush gained ground among suburban women, a key constituency that increased its backing for Bush from 41 percent in June to 52 percent.

His ratings on handling foreign policy and the war in Iraq, while low, remained steady or slightly improved. The poll was taken shortly after Iraqis gained limited control of their new government.

4. Rove is practicing his "perp walk"
it won't be long and he will be doing the Ken Lay shuffle. What ever happened to Karen Hughes? She was doing the book tour, all over TV, then she was at chimpy's side during the disasterous psychedelic tie press conference. Soon after Abu Ghraib story broke, and the Cheney hit the fan, she vanished.
Maybe she had a breakdown or something.

5. Leave it to Rove to be "bouyed"
by promulgating the exact opposite of the news. :eyes:

God, I so want that miserable SOB gone!!
