Karl Rove responds to controversy over his speculation if Fmr. Gov. Sarah Palin will indeed enter the GOP field. Rove said chances are she will jump in, but was not definitive in his observation.
"I'm mystified," Rove said about reaction to his speculation. "Look, she is all upset about this saying how I am trying to sabatouge her in some way. How do I speculate on her future."
"Look, if she doesn't want to be speculated about a potential presidential candidate there is an easy way to end the speculation. Simply say 'I'm not running.' Instead, every time she pops up in the public eye like she did on CNN, at the Iowa State fair a short number of days ago. she said 'I haven't made a decision.'"
"I'm just speculating that more likely than not she is going to be a candidate."
"Now I said 'I wouldn't bet a lot of money on it' because it is such a close thing and I am not privy to her thought-making process. But it is sign of enormous thin-skin that if we speculate about her, she gets upset. And I suspect if we didn't speculate about her, she would be upset and getting ways to get us to speculate about her."

Or maybe like Karl Rove, Palin should get a fatter head. You could play basketball with that thing.
And then you add Hannity's love affair with the suspendered Clinton goon Beckel, and you wonder what's going on. I wouldn't be in the same room with the thug, but Hannity says he's a good friend of the hack.
Also, you might notice that the Right To Life cause has completely slipped from any and all notice on the Hannity show.
Why should she have to declare when the press demands it. And it is the PRESS that's going on and on. Palin has until November. You fell for the MSM's bull one more time.
Karl Rove can KMA.
Where did Palin say anything about being upset?
Seems to me that Rove is projecting.
Take a sneak, troll.
It would be Obama's dream come true to run against "George
Bush, III", which is exactly what it would be if Perry succeeds
in winning the nomination.
And BTW, despite popular belief among certain paunchy pundits,
Rasmussin is mediocre at best and has yet to be exposed.
Hey noobie...the election is in November 2012 and NOT November 2011.
Get over it.
Rove probably read FR and got the idea Sarah was going to announce September 3rd.
There were many threads that made that claim.
I’m with you, Vaquero. Let’s just wait and keep our powder dry.
Really? The press attacked their children? And speculated that one of their kids weren't their's? Palins CHILDREN have been shredded by the press. And the left. I take it you supported their attacks as normal.
You Karl!!!
Far, Far away and as fast as you can.
Then why bother having elections? We’ll just pick a pollster and let them decide, right?
I’m beginning to think that you are right and that she won’t run and is milking a possible run for all the money she can. I hope she isn’t but that is what it is starting to look like.
This has already been posted and although Rove is right ,the FR Children’ Choir has already weighed in telling us how terrible it is for a commentator to have an opinion.
(especially one they disagree with)
Not only should Palin get thicker skin but so should all those on FR who want to give their opinions but not listen to anyone else’s.
Concur w/ your wife, GB. If Sarah couldn’t handle of the flak she was getting in Alaska, how is she going to handle it on a national level? We wonders.
Hey troll, you can take your phony polls and shove them.
The Bush twins were targeted for their public drunkenness, and rightly so. But never before has a public figure had to endure attacks on their innocent child as the left has done with Palin.
