Is Karl Rove running?

I almost think he'll be jumping in after no clear repug leader comes out of Iowa or NH.

1. His mouth is ... his brain doesn't seem to be working, though.

4. Just like Hillary would do for the Repub. base which is why he wrote the article

claiming to give Obama advice to beat Hillary. Fo you think he REALLY wants to give Obama advice to beat her? No. He wants Obama to lose because the Repubs. have all their plans, years' worth, to run against Hillary. He knows if Obama goes negative on Hillary that will HURT him. It's so obvious what Rove's doing.

5. They want Obama and its been obvious for months

The press they own is supporting him. Rove is coaching him, they've indoctrinated you and millions others that Hillary is a nasty bitch and believe me, if he is the nom we will have another Republican administration.

8. That's ridiculous!

They do NOT want Obama, someone who they don't have ANY dirt on compared to decades of dirt on the Clintons. All the Repub. candidates are running on their ability to beat Hillary Clinton. Well, if she's not the nominee, THEN what? She'd energize their base as much as Rove would motivate ours.

9. Yep you are a believer and they love you

All those decades of shit are known and decided on. Obama is nice fresh meat.

Do you really believe the bastards when they tell you they want to run against Hillary? Did you really believe them when they said they wanted to run against Howard Dean? Yeah probably.

Think damn it.

They lie cheat and steak elections from people like us and they are not stupid.

12. Duh! Rove is pretending he wants OBAMA to win!

And the candidates mention Hillary at every chance to motivate their base!!! They KNOW her. They don't know Obama. If she's not our nominee, what about all the Repub. ads saying they're the one to beat Hillary? Obama doesn't motivate voting Repubs. like Hillary does. Repubs. don't seem to mind Obama but they HATE Hillary. If she's not our nominee, how many Repubs. will go vote for Rudy if they don't agree with him? Not nearly as many as would go out to vote AGAINST Hillary.

14. Like I've said before

He is very very good at what he does. Probably the best ever.

He's got you suckered and many others so he's still good at his job.

I imagine the memo. "Tell them over and over that Hillary is inevitable. Tell them we plan on running against her and can't wait. Never ever give away our hole cards against the others. Convince the dems we want Hillary and scare then away from the only one with big enough cajones to beat us."

16. Like I'VE said before

He's acting as if he wants Obama to win. He IS very good at what he does. He's giving advice to Obama, as if it's just advice to him to try to stop Hillary. He does NOT want to stop Hillary. People like you are suckered into thinking he really IS giving advice to beat Hillary? What a joke!

3. No

being a political strategist does not qualify him to be President.

7. huh?

Karl Rove isn't running for Sewer District Member, much less President.

Why would you even ask such a question?

10. Because he sounds like he's running

He's more qualified than shrub. Not as qualified as the Huckster or Ghouliani.

Maybe equal to the slime Romney but definatley more qualified than the big O.

11. I disagree

he's never once run for elective office in his life. Shrub was a two-term governor of a large state.

It just strikes me as insane that anyone would even consider that he'd run for President.

13. Wish this lying traitor was running for the border from the law.

But we have no one to enforce the law against treason in this country. :dem:

15. PROBABLY FOR THE BORDER

and on to bush's ranch in Paraguay so he can't be indicted and jailed. I think Waxman is finally out to get him put behind bars where he belongs.
