Well I’ve never been up close and personal with Karl Rove but he was in town last week and we had a VIP Photo session so I got to chat with him as well as John Edwards some and I have to say that Mr. Rove was much more pursuasive that I may have thought before meeting him. He’s excellent with people and really knows how to work his own magic. The audience that he and Mr. Edwards spoke with was mixed and probably a good cross section of Americans and the back and forth they had was very interesting. Rove impressed me most with his Cheech and Chong reference though which I think Edwards didn’t even catch. Touche.
