Rove previews strategies against Clinton, Obama

We need to know what the enemy is thinking.

-snip-

Rove said that “the woman” wants to repeal all of Bush’s tax cuts, and that she can be targeted for voting against “troop funding” in the form of her votes against the Iraq war supplementals.

Specifically, Rove hit Clinton for what could have been her worst campaign moment last year, when she had trouble answering a question about driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants at the Democratic debate in Philadelphia.

-snip-

“He got elected three years ago, and he spent almost the entire time running for president,” Rove said.

Rove added that Obama has only passed one piece of legislation during his time in the U.S. Senate, and during his time in Illinois state Senate, Obama had “an unusual habit” of voting “present” instead of yes or no.

1. Rove can't count

2006 proved his math wasn't so good.

Is he still claimin' the Dems were in a "rush" to war with Iraq?

isn't his guy polling about 20% percent on the right track - wronk track poll.

5. Has anyone benefited from running the illegal Mexicans off?

Ii haven't met one person who has benefited from all this anti-illegal Mexican hysteria.

Priced produce lately? All these redneck counties around here who huffed and puffed about those evil Mexicans are seeing their tax revenues crater and now they're whining. Spitzer was right.

8. "driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants"

The Republicans want a lot more than licenses for illegal immigrants!
The Republicans want to build a wall on the Mexican border.
The Republicans want to protect corporations that employ the people the wall is supposed to keep out of the USA.
The Republicans want free passes for corporate trucks coming from the other side of the wall.

Republican border policy has a wall with a hole in it. A hole big enough to drive a truck through. A lot of trucks.
