Let's drop the Rove as genius or not-a-genius argument

eric boehlert in media matters via alternet has an extensive de-bunking of the karl rove genius "myth," excoriating the media for its karl rove "love affair" and his status as an "organizational genius..."

let's get a few things straight... karl rove IS a genius, but i do not use that word with any connotation of either "good" or "infallible..." rove is extremely smart and has demonstrated formidable brain power for his entire career... whether or not rove's strategy was able to carry the day in this past election is beside the point... even though rove is passionate about winning, losing does not make him any the less dangerous... why is rove still dangerous...? it's the same reason he has been dangerous all along... rove embraces evil... rove revels in darkness... rove has been the principal driving force behind the total debasement of political dialogue in this country... as long as he is in a seat of power, whether or not he's winning or losing elections, we are all at risk...
