With Obama taking a tour of three swing states – Iowa, Colorado, and Virginia – this week, Rove said he thought the president would do better to stay in Washington, because “it’s so unbecoming” for a president to campaign during his opponent’s convention.
Rove said his advice to President Bush in 2004 was for a few days off.
“I also think it’s a tactical mistake because the president is exhausted,” Rove said. “There’s a reason he stood up there and said, ‘If you built a business, you didn’t do that, someone else did that.’ Because he’s tired!”
