Who blew the chance to dump Obama?
Exclusive: Joseph Farah has a new nickname for GOP's Karl Rove

Excerpt:
I hate to say it, but I saw Barack Obama’s re-election coming.
I saw it coming many months ago.
Obama’s favorable ratings were too high for a guy who had done everything in his power to wreck the greatest economy in the world, to embarrass the U.S. around the world and to attack individual liberty and state sovereignty at every turn.
I had hoped that the magnificent New York Times best-selling book by Aaron Klein, ”Fool Me Twice,” a clear blueprint of what he would do in his second term – if America was dumb enough to give him one – would have made the difference in this election.
Before the book was even published, I showed manuscript to the “geniuses” in the Republican establishment – including the so-called “Architect,” Karl Rove.
Rove knew better. He always knows better. He had no interest in taking the revelations of the book and using them in his ad campaigns. Instead, he ran a conventional campaign telling people what they already knew – what Obama had already done in his first four years.
In the meantime, he also went to war with conservative Republicans like Todd Akin, who, by the way, lost by a smaller margin than some of Rove’s favorites – like Connie Mack in Florida.
At the end of the day, Rove failed at every goal he had been charged with – winning the presidency and winning the Senate. He didn’t even come that close.
That’s why I think Karl Rove is the big loser.
