On Fox News last night, Republican political operative extraordinaire Karl Rove discussed the possibility of Hillary Clinton running for president in 2016.
"I suspect she will be a candidate. I suspect she is going to think about being a candidate in 2016, and we'll know by about 2014. If she leaves the [Obama] Administration in 2014 or 2015, in order to give herself a chance to write a book about her experiences and reconnect with the grassroots, then she might entertain it."
And what would be the clue to Clinton's intentions if there is no Obama administration in 2014? Rove didn't address that scenario.
Rove is playing the odds.... most sitting presidents win reelection.
Yes, I know that the unelected Ford didn’t and the horrid Carter was defeated, and also GHWB lost his reelection bid.
Lincoln said you can’t beat somebody with nobody. Now the hapless GOP is in the position being unable to beat nobody with anybody!
The conservative element and the Repub party had better be focused on getting Obama OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE in 2012. They should quit their quibbling about this person or that person. They have a much bigger battle to fight in November of 2012 -— Obama must be defeated no matter what or who it takes.
Priority ONE! The anti-American Marxist effort must be stopped and crushed. Then the rebuilding can begin in earnest.
For the RINOs they would rather see another term for Obama rather than Palin winning.
But here's a nice picture of the National Trophy Winner in the Rose Parade today...

He is saying that is the ONLY way
Hillary will be a candidate.
NOT in 2012.
Truth is that he is right. Nobody wants to hear it, but the Republicans do not have a sure winner to promote. It will be tough.
I love that! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
I will post on the FReep-a-thon thread!
Rove's "top-secret" strategy fell into the hands of Soros and gave him incentive to donate more than $25 million to defeat GWB. The word "accidentally" seems to follow Rove.
Dems Showed Soros Secret Rove Plan
April 06, 2005 - EDITOR'S NOTE: NR White House Correspondent Byron York's new book, The Vast Left Wing Conspiracy, details how MoveOn.org, George Soros, Michael Moore, 527 groups, Al Franken, and other Democratic activists built the biggest, richest, and best organized political movement in generations. The book reports that in 2003, as Democratic operatives were planning the campaign against President Bush, they obtained a copy of a top-secret Republican strategy plan authored by top White House political adviser Karl Rove. The following excerpt details how those operatives, as part of the effort to woo Soros and other multi-million dollar contributors, showed Soros the secret Rove plan during a crucial planning session at Soros's Hamptons estate. After the meeting, Soros became the biggest campaign donor in American history, giving more than $25 million to the effort to defeat George W. Bush.
Well, I’ll raise $2 million dollars for Governor Sarah Palin. I won’t lift a finger to help a Romney, Huckabee or Bush.
“For the RINOs they would rather see another term for Obama rather than Palin winning.”
BAM! BAM! BAM! as the hammer hits the nails on the head!
Rove is a consummate Washington DC elite, corrupt player, nothing more, and probably much less, if the truth be known.
He and his fellow travelers fear Palin, because she is not corruptible. They see her as shot in the night sky, that will flicker out over time as the relentless assault by the media continues!
I despise Rove, The Bushes, and all living RINOs who are out to subvert and destroy Conservative and the Constitution. They are my enemy as much as The Usurper and Communist Party USA are.
Rove is starting to STINK and so is Krauthammar..
What happens if we hit Nov. 2012 and unemployment has dropped to 8%? That’s improvement but is it enough?
Also, what events will transpire to raise or lower Obama’s approval rating between now and November 2012?
Ping me when you post it, I’ve got two more Reagan Float pics I can post there. :o)
Don't know, don't care. Rove is an unconscionable RINO who has been getting all kinds of undeserved credit for falling ass-backwards into two Bush victories. Bush won because Gore and Kerry act drunk and make Bush look articulate. Rove needs to go take a long walk down a short pier.
Rove the POS is on Prince Al Waleed’s Fox News spewing pro-Obama propaganda?
According to posts on FR - Megan Kelly is making fun of birthers. Yeah Fox is your friend. ALL TV is pro-Obama propaganda. I dumped Obama TV after he was elected. I saw how excited our “friends” at Fox were on election night for the muslim.
The republican Party will do everything within their power to ensure that obama is re-elected.
Hell! John Mc Cain did everything but take out an ad in the newspaper saying,”Vote for obama.” When he said that we had nothing to fear from an obama Presidency. History has shown that we had a hellofalot to fear from an obama Presidency.
