I'm no fan of Rove, but I think in this case he was genius. He dropped the health bomb now and is taking the heat for it....but it doesn't matter because it isn't campaign season and he isn't affiliated (at least openly) with any Republican presidential campaign.

So why is it a genius move? Because it has succeeded in planting the seed in the public's mind. Now for the next two years, anytime Hillary looks tired in public or messes up a line in a speech (which is bound to happen with ANY candidate), the seed will take root in peoples mind and they will say, "Was she only tired? Was it just a verbal mistake? Or maybe there is something to that brain injury thing..."

As a political move, I agree that it was very smart.

That aside, the real issue is fact. Bill Clinton, master communicator, said of the event: “TERRIBLE concussion...6 MONTHS recovery...”

Anyone have an audio clip of his saying that?

I am no fan or Rove......I agree. He sowed the seeds and in my opinion Hillary is done. The election is 2.5 years away and Hillary has to defend the ‘accident’ plus all of her scandal baggage. If she gets sick one day out of the next 2.5 years all this begins again. I think her tank is empty for all these battles, especially with grandchild on the way.
