He pretty much never ignores Ron, and never dismisses him. Damn, we hate when he's blacked out, we hate when he's covered.

Karl Rove also wants a gold standard. Karl Rove.

Karl Rove became interested in politics because of Goldwater, after Goldwater's presidential run, he wasted no time in going over to the dark side. I think he was interested merely because he's an opportunist, because he sure as hell milked every opportunity he's had without a single mention of any type of principle.

And there will be those types who emerge from this campaign. Something to be wary of.

Karl Rove on Greta: Ron Paul underestimated

Translation: Perhaps Rove can gain a grain of credibility by essentially predicting Ron's victory in Iowa.

Greta asked him if Santorum, Bachmann, and Paul were being underestimated in Iowa. He said Santorum and Bachmann might be, but Paul definitely is.

Karl Rove is very bad people, but he's a talented political operative and knows which way the wind blows.

Then maybe he can be embraced, and summarily hung.

It's okay to act like a dork if you're not moderating a debate. I hate Rove, but this criticism falls flat, I think.

I think it is less that and more that he knows not to underestimate Paul because the Paul family has beaten Rove in elections a couple times now. How many republicans in office can claim that?

Collins may carry around an exaggerated sense of importance, but that's actually a pretty good life strategy in politics.

I see him as the Paul Revere of the movement.

If you watch Rove during election returns, you can tell he's a very hard worker. I would hope we'd have somebody like him, minus the sniveling amoral weasel aspect.

And I'm with everyone else. Karl Rove - you better stop. I've been conditioned to hate you since I was ten!

But, as the song suggests, he might have opportunity on his mind...

I have been a political watcher for a long time, and I don't trust Karl Rove. At the same time he is not to be underestimated. You can bet there is a reason he made that statement. I can tell you it shocked me. Also, at the same time, he is right.

Karl Rove is a political operative of the Republican establishment. You have to understand his comments with that in mind. I believe he was sending a message to the Republican establishment to go after Ron Paul with everything you got so he doesn't win Iowa. He knows, winning Iowa with actual votes, not some stupid poll will make Ron Paul the real front runner. It will give Ron credibility the Republican establishment doesn't want him to have.

Except that it seems exceedingly unlikely that Collins would ever put himself at personal risk for anything or anyone. He will, however, take off his shirt and shake his boy-boobs for a couple of bucks.

This. Also don't forget that Karl Rove has been working for the neocons and he was one of the people calling the shots and slogans in Bush era politics

ok notice..... base on this video, how many times Karl Rove mentioned Paul's name is association with both Truthers and Birthers.... the Fox network have done extensive negative character assassination and propaganda against Truthers and Birthers (they categorize it under of of nut case)...

Karl Rove's goal was to make sure that it was clear to everyone watching O'Reilly's Show that Ron Paul = nut case or crazy-Truther-Birther.

It is very clear that Karl Rove works for the establishment Republicans.

Interesting points on Karl Rove

Senior Advisor and Deputy Chief of Staff to former President George W. Bush

Headed the Office of Political Affairs, the Office of Public Liaison, and the White House Office of Strategic Initiative

Republican political consultant and strategist

Bush referred to Rove as "the Architect"

credited with the successful 1994 and 1998 Texas gubernatorial victories of George W. Bush

credited with the successful presidential campaigns Bush's 2000 and 2004

credited for the successful campaigns of John Ashcroft (1994 U.S. Senate election), Bill Clements (1986 Texas gubernatorial election), Senator John Cornyn (2002 U.S. Senate election), Governor Rick Perry (1990 Texas Agriculture Commission election), and Phil Gramm (1982 U.S. House and 1984 U.S. Senate elections)

You are right. Much of the Bush Administration belongs in jail, including Bush.

Karl Rove is anything but an ally. You are so right.

I think it's meant more as a "warning" than as praise.

And that's a good thing. One of the things were are fighting against is that Ron Paul isn't a serious candidate. Karl Rove taking him seriously helps thwart that even if this is a "backhanded" compliment.

Karl Rove is one of the most brilliant political strategists of all time. He will not endorse Ron, but I appreciate this "endorsement" (or rather positive assessment) of Ron's political strength.
