Karl Rove To Keynote Statesman’s Dinner

By Kleinheider Posted on April 21, 2008 at 7:54 am

From Rex Noseworthy:

Rove will speak at the GOP’s “Statesmen’s Dinner,” which typically occurs at Opryland Hotel. Last year, former Massachusetts Governor and one-time presidential contender Mitt Romney was the keynote speaker.

Since leaving the White House, Rove has spent many of his weekday nights as a Fox News political analyst.

That role caused Rove and the Tennessee Republican Party to mix during the furor over the state GOP’s anti-Semites for Obama controversy.

Rove called the infamous GOP press release “wrong” to have up “in the first place.”

Now, he’ll speak at the GOP’s main fundraiser.
