Fading Democratic Drumbeat

One priority is to help Sen. Jim Talent in his re-election bid in Missouri. Another is to show some stabilized leadership and focus on the Middle East. But those inside the White House see the attempted diminution by the mainstream media of political adviser Karl Rove as a sure sign that this White House has a shot at having a hand in maintaining Republican control of Congress.
“The New York Times saying that Karl’s word isn’t gospel tells me that the left wants to try to marginalize him, and that isn’t going to work,” says a White House staffer. “He’s going to have something to say about this election cycle, and so will the President.”
