Karl Rove was at the Aspen Ideas Festival Thursday and described the two big tactical mistakes Romney made that, in Rove's view, cost him the election.

The Atlantic's Garance Franke-Ruta has a piece recounting the conversation between Rove and Atlantic Editor in Chief James Bennett. Rove says the Obama administration took a gamble that they could not win the election on a positive message about the economy or the President's first term achievements. Instead the re-election came down to "a grand bet: We have to take a fifth of our campaign, almost 200 million dollars, and go irradiate Mitt Romney."

Though not mentioned specifically, Rove seems to be referring to some of the more vicious attacks on Romney's record which included claims that Bain Capital was akin to "vampire" capitalism and that Romney was complicit in the death of a woman whose husband lost his job at a steel mill. [The ad was produced by an outside group but the campaign had posted the same information on a website and refused to disavow it.]

Rove had a hand in his loss too didn't he?

And in other news:

Lee Harvey Oswald - in a telephone interview from his corner of Hell - finally broke his long silence. He said "If only JFK's motorcade hadn't made that left turn in front of Dealy Plaza . . .
