Rove Accuses Obama Campaign Of ‘Suppressing The Vote’
« on: November 08, 2012, 05:42:31 PM »
I have to agree - In lee country, FL there was a 3 to 7 hour wait to vote.   Mccain won with 55% of the vote last time.

Karl Rove insisted that Barack Obama won re-election by “suppressing the vote,” during an appearance on Fox News Thursday, even though the president secured more popular and electoral votes than challenger Mitt Romney and grew his margins within certain voting blocks.
 
Rove — whose American Crossroads organizations spent $300 million in a mostly unsuccessful effort to defeat Democrats — attempted to diminish Obama’s victory by explaining that the president won less popular votes in 2012 than in 2008, and only “got more votes…among Latinos.” He complained that Obama characterized Romney, a former Bain executive, as “a rich guy who cares about himself” — a message voters largely embraced.

Agreed.  But I do like him.  Why do you think so many Republicans continually put their faith in him?

What is wrong with Republicans not realizing shit?

Karl Rove is just trying to save his own skin.  He has to explain to donors why he lost 390 million dollars on ads in the battleground states that did not do any good.  The only return they got was North Carolina

rush/hannity were freaking out all day as they heard the early exit polling numbers.

they knew early on that romney wouldn't win.  They didn't put the #s on the air because knew it'd discourage west voting.  If the #s had been good, rush would have shared them. 

Rove was in complete shock.  panic.  He was the architect of the start and finish of superPACs.
