Karl Rove's Fragrance: Eau de Tuna
For the next 6 months, Karl Rove, the Murray Chotneresque heir apparent to the Nixon Manifesto--originally transcribed from the 18 minute gap in the Watergate tapes--should be belled and watched like a stray cat in a fish market.
Rove's dirty playbook reads like Donald Segretti's diary. Considering his past machinations when the playing field of an election was level or tilted in his favor, who knows what kind of Machiavellian Muskie misdeeds he won't hesitate to use at a time when the home team is down by 14 points heading into the second half?
The Four Aces up the sleeve of the Nixon Manifesto.
- "I played by the rules of politics as I found them."
- "Voters quickly forget what a man says."
- "A public man must never forget that he loses his usefulness when he as an individual, rather than his policy, becomes the issue."
- "I want you to stonewall it."
How are these applicable when playing a hand of Strip Poker, this Fall?
Cheat, lie, evade and attack your opponent's patriotism, character and/or morals, and hammer away at him mercilessly with the same negative message. The GOP has been doing it religiously for forty years; and winning.
