Politico | Karl Rove Hearts Mitt Romney

Posted on March 30 2012 – 4:29 PM – Posted by: Doug Brady

As a political analyst on Fox News, Karl Rove is often asked to play the role of hypothetical  adviser to various GOP candidates. And no matter how hard Sean Hannity teasingly  tries to get him to admit who he supports, he refuses to endorse one. When he  riffs about what a “terrific speech” that Mitt Romney made in November, he’ll  make sure to interject, “I’m not here to make his case.”

But it’s hard to miss, among all of Rove’s Fox commentary and Wall Street Journal columns, that he  seems to favor one candidate over the others. Over the last year, Rove has used  these powerful media platforms to systematically undercut every rising Romney  challenger in succession while lauding Romney’s victories as “historic.” The  pattern has gotten under the skin of the supporters of Romney’s challengers, who  argue that Rove has more ties to Romney and his super PAC than he is disclosing  to his media audiences, and thus has no business assessing the Republican  primary race as a purportedly independent analyst.
