Psst….Karl, the “doofus” comment wasn’t off the record.

After the non stop Palin pregnancy pabulum, PolitickerME’s very own Jessica Alaimo has succeeded in infiltrating the People Magazine news coverage of the Republican National Convention. The story on Karl Rove’s breakfast appearance with the Maine delegation, in which Mr. Rove referred to U.S. Sen. Joe Biden (D-Del.) as a "big, blowhard doofus," has grabbed the attention of news outlets across the globe.

When questioned by Alan Colmes on Fox News regarding his remarks, Mr. Rove stated that he thought his comments were “off the record”.

I don’t think so.
