    Rove surprised me...

    ... a number of times over the course of these past 2 days. mind you, I AM NOT A FAN, but that guy does know his stuff. he had actually predicted an overwhelming Obama win the day before (his website is a testament to his political savvy) and was beyond complimentary of the way our new -- and fabulous -- president-elect ran his campaign. this morning i actually heard Rove chide the idiots on Fox and Friends when they tried to imagine the transition -- and how awful Obama's staff would be. "Give the new administration a chance to settle in" he said, "it's not easy. Don't be so anxious to criticize them before they've even set up shop". sure we know what will happen once they DO set up shop, but i, for one, was gratified to hear Rove take the high road for a change. who knows? maybe he'll discover it's nice up there, and stick around. stranger things have happened...
