Karl Rove basically advising Republicans to do what they've done since Nixon:

ABC News' Christianne Klein reports that at a breakfast with Republican insiders at the Capitol Hill Club this morning,  former White House senior aide Karl Rove referred to Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, as "coolly arrogant."

"Even if you never met him, you know this guy," Rove said, per Christianne Klein. "He's the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by." 

I didn't know Puffy was running for president. Seriously, is this political advice, or psychotherapy. Karl seems like he's dealing with some, uhh, issues. Did Obama snatch his girlfriend too? Did he take his bike when they were five?

I'm with Matt. I mean, how did you even get in the country club to see this "cooly arrogant" martini drinking, cigarette smoking dilittante with the hot date? I haven't had the pleasure of being some place where I would have seen this fellow. And I keep my elitism credentials fairly current. Live in Manhattan. Enjoy a latte or two. Like fancy resteraunts. Why don't I know this dude??
