I think Rove is worried that the real reason for the war will come out.
And the american people won't like the idea that the war was pursued as a campaign prop for the 2004 elections. So you can see why he might be a little distracted.

The policy goal of invading Iraq was long established. Chaney, Rumsfeld, Pearle & Wolfie (amongst others) were pounding that policy from 1993 right through to 2001. The minute they got into power, that policy moved to the top of the list. 9/11 was taken as a 'godsend' opportunity to launch it.

The 2002 mid-terms and the 2004 election were thus a 'bonus' to this policy, not the driving force.

Without a doubt, the original and long standing goal was geo-strategic - which includes oil, Israel, Middle Eastern politics and US hegemony. The goal was to dump one 'renegade' US puppet and install a replacement under the guise of imposing 'democracy'. The plan turned out a mite bit messier than they all expected that that is why the ideological 'shit is hitting the fan' right now - the ideology was predicated upon Iraq just rolling over and playing dead. Unfortunately, no one told the Iraqis this...
