Rove Cuts and Runs
Soon after White House Chief of Staff, Joshua Bolton, announced that senior staff working at the White House past Labor Day would be expected to stay on through the end of the Bush presidency, Rove announced his resignation. Some suggest Rove is leaving to insulate himself from ongoing Congressional investigations. Others may speculate Rove is gearing up to aid the next GOP presidential hopeful. Or could it be that, at this stage in the game, President Bush is a lost cause for Rove? What more can he do with a president who is too mired in his own rhetoric to do anything but stay the course? Except maybe cut and run?
Karl Rove has said he’s leaving the White House because this is the best time to devote himself to his family. That may well be true, but Rove has never struck me as a devout family man. Regardless, it would be naive to think we’ve seen the last of Karl Rove. Despite his questionable ethics, Rove is still an expert strategist and has definitely made Bush’s presidency more interesting — if not possible.
