<<. I will support no matter who is nominated >>

Of course you will - you're a bought Democrat, with no real principles. Just a blind mantra.

Knee-jerk sylvestre .. sad

No, the Rove comment was caught off-guard when he didn't think anyone was listening. I would say in order pf preference the GOP would rather run against:

1) Lieberman - guaranteed GOP victory, Orthodox fuddy-duddy
2) Dean - likely GOP victory, short, anti-war, pro tax, can easily be pegged as liberal whiner
3) Gephardt - probable victory, redheaded union man, old hat
4) Edwards - inexperienced, but southern
5) Clark - difficult to beat, war hero, southern
6) Kerry - difficult to beat plus experienced war hero, with Clark as running mate, almost unbeatable

Karl Rove is using reverse psychology

You can bet two things:

(1) none of the administration officials would ever tell the truth if a lie were more convenient, and

(2) the anger of a Dean scares the crap out of them, and is already opening the floodgates of criticism. Were Dean not running, the critics would be soft and nearly mute, and books wouldn't be bought. Listen to the speeches by the other Dems.

The strongest criticism so far from anyone else with any clout has been non-candidate Kennedy's "The War is a Fraud" comment, which would have been otherwise muttered in private, had not Dean demonstrated broad support.
