“Rove pins GOP hopes to Burr, others like him”

From the N&O’s Under the Dome:



Karl Rove thinks U.S. Sen. Richard Burr could help save the GOP.


In a proposed road map out of the political wilderness published last week in Newsweek, the former political strategist for President Bush said that Burr could be a fresh face for the Republican Party.


He contended that the “party’s face” is now its congressional leadership.


“Senate and House Republicans will be seen more than any party chair or 2012 aspirant,” Rove wrote. “Sen. Mitch McConnell and Rep. John Boehner must put on center stage their most persuasive, compelling members: Richard Burr and Jon Kyl in the Senate, and Paul Ryan, Eric Cantor, Mike Pence, Cathy McMorris, Peter Roskam and Kevin McCarthy in the House, for example.”


This is encouraging! I will sleep better now.
