Karl Rove has Peter Kinder's back

Peter Kinder is still kicking in the 2012 election discussion.
  • Peter Kinder is still kicking in the 2012 election discussion.
Don't count out Lt. Gov. Peter Kinder's 2012 gubernatorial campaign just yet! It appears that a scandal involving a picture of Kinder with a former Penthouse Pet, the Pet's subsequent assertion that Kinder creeped her out and offered her a chance to live in his condo, evidence that Kinder loves staying at hotels on the taxpayer dime, and a big donor asking him not to run won't keep Kinder out of the hunt.

PoliticMo reports that former George W. Bush adviser Karl Rove will host a fundraising event in a private Cape Girardeau home tonight. Kinder's staff told the website: "It’s going to be the most successful event in Cape Girardeau that Peter Kinder has ever had."

And why not have a little bravado. After all, Rove isn't the only big name lined up behind Kinder.

Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour will come around later in September to drum up support for Kinder.

Recently, Kinder has been touring the state, and issued a letter to the state's Republican base saying he wouldn't run if he couldn't win.

teabager all the way, so we a got a guy that likes to hit the clubs spend time in hotels in St louis with who knows. Maybe him and Karl can get together do a little drugs and then call a few hookers.
