What would be the best way to decode the secret word in the following paragraph?

1. Find letter after * in order it appears in paragraph.






On board with *Bush since the beginning of his political career in Texas, Rove w*as nicknamed "the architect" and "boy genius" by the presiden*t for designing the strategy that twice won him the White House. Critics call Rove "Bush's brain."

"Karl Rove is moving on down the road," Bush said, appearing grim-faced on the Whi*te House's South Lawn with Rov*e at his side.

"We've been f*riends for a long time and we're still going to be friends ... I'll be on the road behind you here in a bit," he said ruefull*y*.


The secret word = Battery



Thanks
