Seems like Karl Rove is looking at taking up a new occupation................hit man.
Is this the new GOP policy for RINOs and those who cause problems in the party?
(Mytheos Holt) -- Karl Rove is probably the master of getting Republicans to say the right thing, at the right time, for the right reasons. So when Rove himself delivered some off-color remarks of his own, its a surprise to almost everyone.
The comments in question occurred this morning at a high-powered fundraisers breakfast, Bloomberg Businessweek reports, at which the former Bush campaign guru made a joke about Missouri Senatorial candidate Todd Akin.
We should sink Todd Akin, Rove laughed. If hes found mysteriously murdered, dont look for my whereabouts!
Akin has been an albatross around the Republican Partys neck ever since a series of unfortunate comments suggesting that the female body can cancel pregnancies that might result from legitimate rape. This scientifically illiterate gaffe has drawn virtually universal condemnation from both conservative pundits and activists, and the GOP establishment. Akin is widely thought to be unelectable, in a race that Republicans badly want to win in order to take over the Senate.
