Rove has been busy behind the scenes. From a recent article in Rolling Stone. Rove Rides Again Bush's former strategist is secretly seizing control of the GOP – and amassing $135 million to destroy the Democrats By Tim Dickinson May 12, 2010 10:00 AM EDT "Rove and Gillespie, who effectively ran the Republican Party throughout the past decade, recognized that Steele's weakness represented an opportunity to stage a quiet comeback. But taking control of the party, they knew, would require a new kind of political machine. The Supreme Court, in its recent decision in Citizens United v. the Federal Election Commission, opened the floodgates for unlimited political spending by corporations and individuals. But the court left in place strict limits on contributions to party committees – and it preserved the legal firewall that bars campaigns from coordinating directly with the outside groups now empowered to spend millions on their behalf." http://www.rollingstone.com/politics/news/;kw=[3351,149864]
