Rove Stumps for Bachmann

Karl Rove, dubbed "The Architect" following President Bush's re-election, was in Stillwater Friday for a fundraiser for Michele Bachmann in her bid to replace Mark Kennedy as representative of Minnesota's Sixth District. He later attended a fundraiser for Mark Kennedy.
White House political maestro Karl Rove urged money and other forms of support for Republican congressional candidate Michele Bachmann at a Stillwater fundraiser Friday while protesters outside the event called for Bachmann to be defeated, Rove to be indicted and President Bush to be impeached. Rove also appeared at a fundraiser for Republican U.S. Senate candidate Mark Kennedy on Friday evening. That event was closed to the media.
Karl Rove appearing at a fundraiser for a House seat tells you that the White House isn't taking anything for granted. It isn't a sign that things are going badly for the Bachmann campaign, no matter what a bunch of whiny Dems might say. Democrats at the DNC wouldn't recognize the mainstream of American politics if it bit them.

Predictably, a bunch of moonbats assembled outside the Bachmann fundraiser to whine about all things Bush:
John Atkins of Stillwater wandered outside the inn wearing a George Bush mask and holding up two signs, one of which said "I Should Be Impeached," and the other: "Rove Committed Treason." The second sign is a reference to Rove's role in divulging the CIA connection of Valerie Plame. Atkins, 52, said it was his first-ever political protest.
I wish the Strib reporter would've told us if Mr. Atkins was a clown at rodeos. It wouldn't surprise me if he was because his motivation for protesting is a bunch of bull.
