Semi-coherent conspiracy theory post about rigged elections on one of my political communities. I was willing to play along until I got to this sentence: I believe that's why Barack came as hard as he did in his speech tonight mentioning Karl Rove.

EEEEEWWWWWWWW.

I know.

There's a discussion upthread of why Obama/Rove is A Bridge Too Far. today at least. We'll see if I make it to the end of the election without falling any further down the rabbit hole.

Those are points well made above. But more importantly, Obama and Rove have no...canonical connection to each other that would be so strong as to call for fic. That Obama/Keyes story was in a way begging to be written, even if, ah, not many people would have thought to write it.

Just wait, now that we've said that, Rove's next column in Newsweek or wherever the hell he's working now is going to be full of unintentionally suggestive commentary on the Democratic primaries...

(Roy Cohn himself was the subject of some damned interesting RPF, after all, the kind that people get paid for. But I think his character voice lends itself to much better dialogue than Rove's.)

("Was it legal? Fuck legal. Am I a nice man? Fuck nice. They say terrible things about me in The Nation? Fuck The Nation. You want to be nice or you want to be effective? You want to make the law, or be subject to it? Choose.")
