"Reports have it Rove was instrumental in paving the way for "Nobama to win the Ill. Senate seat and run for Prez and that repugs were registering Dem and organizing efforts to vote against Hill in the primaries as far back as a 1.5 years ahead."
Not reports, not rumors, not conspiracies--FACTS
Conspiracies are for sheep happiest grazing on grassy knolls.
Here's the link. ALL of it is factual:

It proves Obama easily got where he is merely by buying superdelegates. He simply promised contributions from his huge war chest--a lot of it GOP money, it turns out-- to their own election campaigns in return for their approving him. And surprisingly this is not illegal. But it does make a total sham of the Democratic electoral process, doesn't it?
It all, such a coincidence, happened and we all let it happen.
I was dubious when I first read it. But then I researched it and every bit checks out. I thought at the time Donna Brazile suddenly having Rove as her New Best Friend didn't quite add up. And I now think that having Obama unscrupulously forced on us is every bit as dismal an alternative as having McCain for the next 4 years.
As a matter of fact this is precisely why we will have McCain for the next four years.
Think about this for a while. The only possible way a GOP candiate could win after 8 years of Bush would be to provide a totally unelectable Democratic opponent.
After eliminating any viably capable contenders.
Karl Rove topped off getting Bush in twice by using Donna Brazile to let him choose both candidates. Amazing, heinous and absolutely true. If being nefarious was an Olympic event, Rove could turn it into a decathlon and win every medal
Worse, Rove is Cheney's lieutenant. No one on earth better knows how to manipulate demographics and division. Axelrod against Rove is like a chipmunk against a Rottweiler.
You've all been gamed by Karl Rove. Again.
