Snatching Defeat From The Jaws Of Victory — A Karl Rove Special

SEE HERE Yup if there's something Karl Rove and the Republican establishment is good at it is snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Articulating a sincere principled conservative message that energizes the grassroots and communicates to others the sincere commitment of the Republican party to first principles is all that it would take for success. But Karl Rove thinks that if you just cave on your principles and pretend to be liberal-lite that you'll draw votes from the opposition is about the stupidest idea you can think of. It doesn't work. It hasn't worked. And now that we know Rove's number, it will never work.
