Clinton: Karl Rove Is "Obsessed With Me"

CNN :

Senator Hillary Clinton said she does not expect any support of her candidacy from outgoing White House political adviser Karl Rove, despite his recent public discussion of her campaign.

"Well, I don't think Karl Rove's going to endorse me," the Democrat from New York joked Sunday, during a debate with the other Democratic candidates in Des Moines. "That becomes more and more obvious. But I find it interesting he's so obsessed with me."

Here comes Karl Rove, distanced from the office of the President, ready to inflict a hatchet job on the biggest threat to the Republicans.

... All I can say is after watching Rove channel Mr. Capote in both mannerisms and speech patterns in both his interviews (especially the one with David Gregory - you could almost hear Karls crinolines a'swishin), his attitude leads me to believe he's VERY worried about Hillary winning the nomination..! ;) ...

It's Karl Rove jerking off, as usual and pretending that he "knows something". Pathetic!

Rove is the worst kind of slime. He is a pathetic little nothing of a cocker roach. I know his kind, have gone up against his kind in court. Make no mistake, they all have an achilles heel. They don't like to be caught, or lose. He is in for a hell of a fight if he thinks Hillary will cower. If I was any of the candidates going up against him, I would totally ignore him. Just ignore him, not use thier budget to comment on his crap. He isn't worth it.

Most regular Americans do not know who Rove is.

Hi,
The Republicans are absolutely "paranoid" about the Clintons; probably because Bill Clinton beat George H.W. Bush in 1992.
Sen Clinton's support for the military is well known in military circles (just ask the Air Force reserve members of the 914th or the members of the 10th Mountain Division, two examples).
If the Republicans run on the record of President George Bush (Bush 43) they will have very tough sledding; therefore, they must try to shift the focus to get people thinking how "bad" Senator Clinton would be and do this without any factual basis for it. They cannot talk about the record they have "governing" the country for the past six and one half years.
What do U think????

you both have fat asses..

that and the fact that you both suck at the teat of corporatocracy is what Hillary and Rove share..

guess what Hillary..

i won't vote for you under any circumstances you are just Bush lite..

if you're the democrats choice, I'll be writing in Al Gore.

and no i won't feel terrible if the crooked republican wins because others won't vote for you either.. if you're the democrats choice.. then they don't deserve to win..

Lewinski was a disturbed young woman. What kind of normal high schooler bangs her teacher?
-----------------------------------------------
wow !some of you either never fact check your words or ASSume the rest of us don't.Lewinsky was 23 not a high school student.Now perhaps you were a high school student at 23 but she was not.the next fact I's like to point out is that Bill Clinton had a liasion not his wife.I find it remarkable that you would even mention Lewinsky in a Hillary run for any office.Do you think Hillary is a fan or a freind to that sad young woman?I bet your ancestors burned women at the stake or stoned them when their husbands decided to leave them because someone deemed them a witch.Please try to come close to issues that we need to address in this nation like maybe a failed war in Iraq or healthcare and keep your below the belt issues for nights when your alone with your inflatable wife.

Rover just wants to roll over in the clover with Hillary. They would be a pair wouldnt they. They have almost the same morals.

Let's see if I understand this, Karl Rove mentions Billary Clinton twice publicly, and he's obsessed. The Huffington post runs a front page story on Karl Rove dozens of times, and they are, are, what?

Although it's starting early it's just a rerun of the last Presidential run up. Bush, Rove, etc. started trashing Kerry long before the convention, because they WANTED Kerry to be the candidate. They thought an Edwards candidacy would be harder to defeat. Same this time. They're afraid Obama or Edwards could defeat a GOP candidate. They think Hilary would be the easiest to defeat. I don't necessarily think they're right. But htis is just history repeating. Pay attention people! We can learn from history. The GOP has NO respect for the voters ability to observe and reason. They think they can just repeat the same behavior and no one will notice. Are they right?
