Karl Rove appeared on Greta Van Susteren’s “On the Record” to discuss the 2012 race, saying that it appears to him that Sarah Palin doesn’t think “the rules apply to her”. He went on to say that the political process has changed and that some politicians are taking unconventional routes to electoral success. He also highlighted the difference between people who will come out to see the former Alaska governor and people who actually vote in primary elections.

This video comes to us from Fox News, via Mediaite:

8. No, you're not reading his statement correctly.

He's talking about the political process, not her sense of entitlement. He's saying she believes she can run for office on her own terms (twitter feeds, no media interviews except FOX, private rallies, etc). As obnoxious as Rove is I don't think he would ever be that politically stupid.

[EFerrari]

12. That's right. Palin should rely on Brooks Bros riots

and a conservative Supreme Court the good old fashioned way that Rove did.

22. Duh, Mr. The Math. :) I love them kicking each other to death.

3. Which rules? Rove's rules? Fuck that guy.

Run Sarah! Do it for the lulz!

[City Lights]

4. She learned from the master, eh Karl?

She, like you, lives in her own reality.

[Jackpine Radical]

20. Sadly, KKKarl has considerable skill at

splattering his reality all over ours.

5. Karl's the one hired to make sure she gets nowhere close to being nominated...

Looks like he's already started.

7. 'She's fair game'---Karl Rove on outing a CIA agent

[izquierdista]

9. Gives her that Dubyaesque quality, don't it?

[sakabatou]

10. Rove also thinks the rules don't apply to him either

[gratuitous]

11. Karl upset that Sarah's working his side of the street?

This could get entertaining.

[MasonJar]

13. Rove has assured that no rules apply to him.

14. So sayeth' the other Carny worker across the alley.

15. It's like when you visit the state pen and the hitman warns you that the forger is a bad person

[EFerrari]

26. LOL

[Skidmore]

16. Well, it takes one to know one.

[Raffi Ella]

17. Oh well.

Whose fault is it that anyone even knows that woman's name outside of Alaska? Exactly. "The chicken has come home to roost".

Deal with it lunatics! oh and from the bottom of my liberal heart: Thanks Rove! See ya in 2012 :dem:

[JaneQPublic]

18. That just means she's a Republican.

They all think the rules don't apply to them, but were only created to keep the rest of the world out of THEIR way.

19. The Rules- Kissing Roger Ailes, Grover Norquists & Karl Rove's ass?

[DCBob]

21. GOPer establishment is freaking out about the possibility of candidate Sarah Palin.

Its wonderful!

[fascisthunter]

23. oh brother.... clueless

[CrossChris]

24. She's your Frankenstein, buddy. Enjoy. nt

25. Spoken as only a Watergate boy could say it. N.B. Rove was

investigated during Watergate as one of Donald Segretti's dirty tricksters. Investigation never got anywhere close to an indictment, due to lack of investigatory resources. But Rove was engaged in electoral dirty tricks as far back as 1970-72.

[Warren DeMontague]

27. If she's too stupid and shallow for Karl Rove, that's saying something. nt

[CrispyQ]

28. Of course she doesn't! She's a maverick!

It's why the repub elite will make sure she's not on the ticket. They could control W, but Palin will buck them just to show off her maverick-y-ness to her fans.

[LLStarks]

29. Palin thinks she can run a celebrity campaign with nothing to show for it. nt

30. Rove must be irony-challenged.
