Good Bye Karl Rove, It's Too Bad Bush Quit Listening To You
Once Rove leaves the White House, is he still going to be the devil? I guess it would all depend if the presidential candidate he is surely going to advise wins the Presidency. Of course he could do nothing and could spend his days eating small children full-time.
On Fox News Channel today, the Democrat said he thinks Rove will go to the Thompson camp. The Republican said she thinks it will be Giuliani. I don't think it will be either. I believe Rove has had enough of wishy-washy presidents and will choose someone more solid.
Karl Rove, one of President George W. Bush's closest aides and a lightning rod for controversy among Democrats, said he will leave the White House at the end of August.
Rove, the White House deputy chief of staff known as "The Architect" for guiding Bush from being the governor of Texas to two terms as president, is the latest in a series of senior aides to quit as the clock ticks toward the end of Bush's presidency.
"I just think it's time," Rove, 56, said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal published on Monday.
"There's always something that can keep you here and, as much as I'd like to be here, I've got to do this for the sake of my family."
