Karl Rove's hand in the Democratic Primary?

[illusionofjoy]

Madamab at The Confluence paints an ugly picture of just what may have gone on behind the scenes:

The unholy matrimony between Bush’s Brain and the Democratic Party was cemented by Brazile’s desire to recreate the Democratic Party in the image of the Republican Party - but with African-Americans as the powerbrokers instead of rich white men. Incredibly, she calls this corruption of the Party of the working class “mobilizing the grassroots.”

As for Rove, he wanted to knock out John McCain, a man whom Bush has still not forgiven for voting against the Deciderer’s disastrous tax cuts, and of course make sure Hillary Clinton, the only strong progressive Democrat in the race, did not win the White House. There is no chance that Hillary would forgo the opportunity to prosecute Rove and Co. for all of their heinous crimes against America and its people.

But Obama? His chief legal advisor, Cass Sunstein, has already gone on record as saying that Bush-Cheney should not be impeached. And of course, Obama has already voted to immunize the telecom companies, and by extension the Bush Administration, for their illegal warrantless wiretapping of Americans. Of course, the warrantless wiretapping program is one of the most rock-solid reasons for impeachment, according to Constitutional law experts. Poof! There it went.

Unsettling stuff.
