【我的总结与翻译】

总结：dim, dominance, apparently, frustration, entitle, plot, gubernatorial, turmoil,

But (the president's) sharply declining public approval ratings and discontent over the Iraq war seem to have (dimmed) Republican hopes for political dominance, at least in the short time.

但公众对总统急剧下降的支持率和对伊拉克战争的不满情绪，使得共和党取得政治支配地位的希望至少在短期内不容乐观。

Rove is (apparently) going to take a break from national politics during the 2008 campaign cycle, no doubt a source of (frustration) for a host of Republican White House contenders who would want to tap his political wisdom.

很显然，Rove计划从2008年总统竞选的全国性政治活动中隐退，对许多想利用Rove政治智慧的共和党白宫竞选人来说，这无疑是个令人沮丧的消息。

(Wayne) Slater is the author of a book (entitled), Bush's Brain: How Karl Rove Made George W. Bush. He spoke to CBS television.

Wayne Slater是《布什的智囊，Karl Rove是如何把George W. Bush推上总统宝座的》一书的作者，他对CBS电视台表示：

"He is a guy who (plotted) the planning for George Bush's (gubernatorial race) and said, I can make him president of the United States. The absence of Rove (would) create a situation sort of like Paul (McCartney) without John Lennon, the music will be different."

“他是为George Bush竞选总统出谋划策的人，Rove曾说，我能够让他当上美国总统。但没有Rove而造成的局面就像没有John Lennon的Paul McCartney一样，所作的音乐也是不同的。”

Rove also got caught up in (his) share of political turmoil during his White House yars. Democrats tried without success to tie Rove to the leaking of former CIA covert officer (Valeria) Plame's name in 2003. In addition, congressional Democrats continue to press Rove to testify about what role if any he had in the (firing) of nine U.S. attorneys last year.

在白宫工作期间，Rove也被卷入过政治旋涡。2003年，民主党试图将Rove和一前CIA秘密官员Valeria Plame的泄密事件联系起来，但失败了。另外，国会民主党一直对
Rove施加压力，让他证实在去年开除9名检察官的背后，他扮演了什么角色。
