Akkam’s Razor

Will you people stop this?  Your making Rove into a Supervillian, a Keiser Soze.  The myth is bigger than the man.

From the Pensito Review via Rawstory:

On Sept. 21, Raw Story reported that Karl Rove was telling conservative groups that he had a surprise scheduled for the last two weeks of October that would turn the midterms in the Republicans’ favor.

[...]

What is Rove’s October surprise? As early as Sept. 8, we suggested that the Bush team could have captured or killed Osama bin Laden recently, and have been waiting to reveal this news closer to the election. Others, including BuzzFlash, had similar thoughts.

This election is far from over, and Pres. Bush and his cohorts are desperate. Their entire agenda — not to mention their freedom from investigation, perhaps indictment and even impeachment — rests on a Republican victory on Nov. 7.

They will do anything to win.

So while every clutches their skirts over the October Suprise, people stop talking about the unpopular elephant in the room.

He's called turdblossom because he can make a flower spring from a pile of shit.  No matter if he has a plan or not, something will be called the October Suprise, whether it is or isn't.  And he will find a way to spin it in the GOPs favor.

Fer Chrissakes', do a little black ops yourselves - call everything his October Suprise, and claimed it failed - make him say it isn't - make him keep talking about it.  Just stop giving him magical powers!
