Rove’s Book Sold for Half of What He Expected - And Buyer Was Mary Matalin
Jon Ponder | Dec. 22, 2007

Karl Rove put his book project up for auction among the big publishing houses in New York in mid-November. According to Crain’s New York Business on Dec. 17, a month passed with no offers.

. . . .

On Friday, a deal was finally announced, but there’s an interesting twist — the buyer is Rove’s former White House colleague, conservative strategist Mary Matalin.

GOP strategist Karl Rove has agreed to write about his years as an adviser to President Bush in a deal worth over $1.5 million with former colleague Mary Matalin’s conservative imprint at Simon & Schuster, officials said Friday.

1. Matalin is Cheney's enforcer.

I believe that Matalin intends to "mind" Karl Rove to see that he doesn't finger Cheney or Cheney's underlings in any way. I believe this was very strategic.

2. Wonder if he'll learn anything here? Upon further reflection I would say not.
