Rove Aide Resigns

Maybe it’s a coincidence.

White House political director Sara Taylor is out the door at the White House, according to Washington Wire. Taylor came up a number of times yesterday during the Kyle Sampson hearing as having worked closely with Sampson (along with another Karl Rove aide Scott Jennings) to install Rove’s former aide Tim Griffin as the U.S. Attorney in eastern Arkansas.

“Barry Jackson, a longtime aide to Karl Rove, also is thought to be leaving soon…. All the departures appear to be more-or-less routine turnover,” reports the Washington Wire.
