Sen. Clinton Says Rove Obesses About Her By MARC HUMBERT, AP Political Writer


ALBANY, N.Y. — Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton said Monday that President Bush's chief political strategist Karl Rove "spends a lot of time obsessing about me."


The former first lady and potential presidential contender was reacting during a radio interview to a new book quoting Karl Rove as saying she will be the 2008 Democratic nominee for president,

"He spends more time thinking about my political future than I do," Clinton said, noting that Rove and other White House aides have met regularly with her possible opponents in November's 2006 Senate race.

The junior Senator from New York said she believed Rove, Republican National Committee Chairman Ken Mehlman and other Republicans are focusing on her to divert attention from Republican problems as the 2006 congressional elections approach.

"Karl Rove is a brilliant strategist. So, if I were thinking about this," Clinton told WROW-AM radio in Albany, "I'd say why are they spending so much time talking about me?"

4. just like they did with Dean back in 2002

that's our guy, that's the one we want - Rove said about Dean. It's all about easy targets for them. God forbid they actually, you know, ran a campaign based on merit and integrity.

5. The wiley Rove may send a few operatives to post on DU in an effort to

paint her as a tool of the right.:think:

[Seen the light]

8. I've always wondered about stuff like that

I wonder how many people on DU are really legitimate Democrats and how many are either Freepers in disguise or people that actually work for the Pentagon. :shrug:

14. Never underestimate the power of "vast right wing conspiracy". (n/t)

[FreedomAngel82]

9. Why?

They have the actual media.

[oasis]

16. How many DU posters trust the MSM?Many are swayed by opinions

aired right here in our community.

[FreedomAngel82]

6. LOL

How funny. Love it! I still don't think she's running personally. I don't know call it a "gut" feeling.

[Ksec]

7. Now THATS strateeegery.

:)

She aint stupid. Thats a fact/

[Lerkfish]

10. "quoting Karl Rove as saying she will be the 2008 Democratic nominee"

pretty much sums up why I am against the push to make her the nominee. There's SOME reason Rove and repukes are obsessing on MAKING her the candidate.

[Ksec]

12. Hillary is too "brutal"

New strategy talking point. Remember how Kerry got stuck with his label.

Start early to stop it. Theyre already lining up the talking points. Its never too early to get ours in line.

[madrchsod]

11. that is funny

hillary is in my definition a moderate republican. i`m basing this on the republican party before the neocon overthrow of the party. in today`s definition she`s a centrist democrat.so what ever she is she won`t be elected to the presidency no matter how hard karl masturbates to the thought of degrading her.

[Blutodog]

13. Karl

LOL the vision of Karl whacking it over a Pic. of Hillary is truly sickening but a real possibility given the shrunken evil soul of Herr Rove at this juncture.

[sandnsea]

15. Oh my god, she really will say anything

And I bet she does peel off a few votes by playing the Rove is scared of her game. Good lord.
