Karl Rove (born December 25, 1950) is a political analyst and contributor for Newsweek, the Wall Street Journal, and Fox News. Rove was the Deputy Chief of Staff in the Bush administration. Rove's longtime partnership with George W. Bush dates back to Bush's terms as governor of Texas. Rove ran both of Bush's campaigns for governor and for president.

Rove's track to the top began early after attending the University of Utah to work in the College Republican National Committee. Congressional Democrats are interested in any advice he may given prior to the dispatch of several controversial US Attorneys serving at the pleasure of the President.

Often called "the brains behind Bush" or "the Architect," Rove is credited as the chief architect of the 2000 and 2004 presidential campaigns.

"Bush, via Karl Rove, was projected as a moral man who would return a hedonistic America to the simpler virtues of a bygone era. A large part of the American public, unhappy with what they saw as debilitating liberalism, abortion on demand, gay marriage and other forms of moral decay, put Bush back in office," said the Barnes editor.

Resignation

On August 13, 2007, the Wall Street Journal published an interview with Rove in which he announced that he would be resigning from his position of deputy Chief of Staff at the end of the month. [1] Rove explained the move as motivated by his dedication to his family.
