Karl Rove, the Architect is in, and so are the reviews, from the usual suspects with the usual opinions:

The Architect served as Senior Advisor to President George W. Bush from 2000–2007 and Deputy Chief of Staff from 2004–2007. He now writes a weekly op-ed for The Wall Street Journal and is a Newsweek columnist and contributor to Fox News

On March 31, Rove is scheduled to stop by Warwick’s in La Joya at 06:00 PM
