He studied books, attended speeches, joined campaigns and would cross the country without sleep just to enter the room before the cigar smoke cleared and catch a glimpse of the Decepti-con meeting.
The Decepti-cons liked young Rove the way Mean Joe Greene liked the kid in the Coke commercial. So they kept him around and used him for low key projects and stuff.
