Quote of the Day

Karl Rove, in an interview with Deborah Solomon in The New York Times Magazine. Asked if he liked vice president-elect Joe Biden, Rove replied:

I think he has an odd combination of longevity and long-windedness that passes for wisdom in Washington.

It is a great, short interview. Rove was barely civil most of the time if Solomon transcribed it accurately. At that, it was more gracious than the Times deserves.
