Beltway Snark

I hope W didn’t pay Rove for his advice, because Rove seems perfectly happy to give it away for free. This time, he has a few words for McCain:

Writing in the Wall Street Journal, former top Bush adviser Karl Rove called McCain “one of the most private individuals to run for president in history,” and said the presumptive Republican nominee must reveal more about his unique life story in order to win the presidency.

“Private people like Mr. McCain are rare in politics for a reason,” Rove writes. “Candidates who are uncomfortable sharing their interior lives limit their appeal. But if Mr. McCain is to win the election this fall, he has to open up.”

Sure. He can build a fire and tell us war stories. That’ll be fun.
