WASHINGTON (AFP) - Top White House political adviser Karl Rove, who masterminded President George W. Bush's political campaigns in 2000 and 2004, said in an interview published Monday that he will resign at the end of this month.
"I just think it's time," Rove told The Wall Street Journal. "There's always something that can keep you here, and as much as I'd like to be here, I've got to do this for the sake of my family."
The paper said Rove's resignation will become effective on August 31.
