How to Beat Hillary (Next) November

Comment: Hopefully OBAMA or one of his supporters reads this. The second key for OBama to defeat Hillary is to push the fact that she is a polarizing figure that statistics show half of American men in this country would not vote for her and that being a women leader would make it difficult to deal with the Middle East. Most Men in the Mideast would not be as embrassing because their culture does not follow women leaders. If you offend the people you are trying to negotiate with you are not going to get what you want and that is peace in the middle east. (Don't get me wrong Hillary is capable of handling negotitations, OBama himself cannot come out and make the women comment it has to be done through a commercial by a third party). Leaders in the middle east will give OBAMA a chance because of his color, name and background. Obama can win if he drives these two issues, illegal immigration and foreign policy. Unfortunately BARAK did not give the answer I was looking for I did, so I do not know the candidates will enough to know what they truly think but if OBama represents the politics of hope, he should take my advise. I guarantee you these two issues will bolt you into the democratic, and give you a platform for your Presedential campaign. I like Hillary CLinton and I think she would make a great vice president who works on domestic issues. I think we have already had a Clinton in the white and it is time to move on. I will save my Republican theories for another article. But just a quick preview. Gulliani is not a conservative so it is easy to defeat him for the Republican nomination. Guilliani was not in control on 9/11, he could not do anything without approval from the white house. The terrorists were in controll of 9/11 not Gulliani. Him dressing. up as a women should be played over and over again. You can use his upside against him, he seems power hungry, he was a great mayor and would also make a great vice president. The republicans are in trouble just like the 2004 democratic lineup they have no chance of winning this next election. All my opinions and comments have been patented. I was flattered when a foreign policy expert quoted my comments regarding the Nov 9, 2007 article WHILE PAKISTAN BURNS. I mentioned that " Israeli issues which makes this issue even more complicated". He also quoted other parts of my blog. I am a proud graduate of the University of Maryland class of 04 and if anyone needs political advice or ideas to confront political issues in the OBAMA camp, or any other camp, republican or democrat, you can e-mail me. ftennassee@yahoo.com.

Twisted, I certainly agree with you on all counts. Hilary Clinton is part of the machine in DC and she is deceitful. She contradicts herself all the time on the war. God help us if she gets into office. People need to look at the bigger picture as far as the war is concerned. Sure I don't want it to continue but when I look at what will happen if we don't stay over there it scares me to death. If we don't it is going to be over here on our soil. Much of it comes from Iran and Syria too, not just Iraq. Many of us think well let's just wait till they kill each other off but that is what they want us to do. If we do not put a stop to terrorism now it will be here too and it does not just affect us but the entire globe. Please people wake up!!!

I would like to congratulate Karl Rove and all presidential candidates for participating and serving in the political process of this great country. I admire all candidates both republican and democrat and wish to offer some "Karl Rove Quality of advice".But first let me state that Karl Rove is a genius, a bit pompus, but like any great quaterback one must have confidence. Karl Rove's reasoning is simple, know your opponent and distinguish yourself. It makes sense. As Rove mentioned, Hillary Clinton's every move and reaction is calculated so in order to defeat her, "show that you are real", I couldn't have put it better myself Karl! It was so easy to defeat Gore, expose his goofiness and calculated answers with responses like "fuzzy math". 'Let Gore beat himself, he's a moron' was one of the tickets the Rebublicans played in the 2000 election (Gore once claimed he invented the internet, his answers were not real they were scripted) . And in 2004 the republicans portrayed Kerry as "flip flopper" because he voted for it before he voted against it. Combined that with the constant images of Kerry looking like a Hippi on withdrawl, protesting the same war he fought for; finished him off.

Obama had a great opportunity to capture the minds and hopes of the American people in the last debate, but he failed. He also failed to integrate the Rove Doctrine: To distinguish yourself from your opponent and do not hesitate to say anything controversial. Obama's opportunity came when he was asked the same question Hillary Clinton stumbled on in the previous debate which was, do you believe that illegal immigrants should have drivers licenses? At that juncture he should have responded by stating that
"everyone in this country are human beings first and that they are very sensative to this issue because it affects millions of families and their relatives. As President I am willing to tackle this problem head on not just "patch it up"(THat would have made a memorable punch line). The first thing I would do as President when confronted with this issue is to get to the root of the problem. Why can't illegals become legal and get legal driver's licenses why do they have to be illegal in the first place. The short term solution would be to give illegals licenses with conditions just like visitors attain temporary driver's licenses or the licenses from their country have been evaluated and recognized. Licenses for illegals must have special conditions, if you are convicted of any driving felony or DUI your license is automatically revoked.

Why do you people back Clinton so much. First of all she can't keep her husband happy, what makes you think she will keep the country happy. Has anyone gone to war or had an immediate family member go to war? We all would like war to end, but it's not going to happen. Realize it. People want Americans to die and their version of the bible sais to kill those who do not follow in their footsteps. Put yourself in these shoes. Would you want to fight a war on American soil. Would you be willing to let terrorists come into your neighborhood and harm your family. I wouldnt. I call you a ignorant, if you think pulling forces out of war is going to help. It will only allow things to get worse. They will regain strength and something worse that 9/11 will occur. World peace would be great, but if America wants to remain great it needs to put an end to terrorism. Argue, do whatever you want but if you dont support our troops and respect they are fighting so we can do this, you need to get our of America or realize that we have the opportunity to live in the greatest country on the face of this planet.

"He needs to do better among minorities, and be seen as trying." Just one of the many glaring problems in the way that Carl Rove plays politics. To him it is a game that must be won any cost. Offering solutions to the problems that face millions of Americans is of no importance, all that matters is getting elected. And why not? It worked for George W Bush. Rove realizes that the American people are far too trusting, they believe that when a candidate describes what type of president he will be if elected he will actually follow through with it. Our current President made a lot of promises to the American people and we elected him twice. People like Rove don't care about what is best for the United States of America, they care about winning and they will say whatever they think you want to hear in order to achieve that end.

Make no mistake, Republicans are salivating at the prospect of running against Hillary Clinton next November, because they know she is probably the only candidate they have a realistic chance of beating. Mr. Rove's article is but a thinly veiled attempt to promote that end.

The problem is, justifiably or not, Ms. Clinton is such a polarizing force in U.S. politics that, no matter who she runs against, 50% will vote against her. Thus, even if 80% of the remaining 50% that would even consider it do vote for her, best case gives her 40% of the vote. In our predominantly two-party system, 40% won't get it done. The best Democrats could hope for in that scenario would be an independent candidate (say someone like Ron Paul) who could siphon off 20% of the anti-Hillary vote resulting in a race that would be too close to call.

For me, a race too close to call is too scary a prospect, especially if we can do better. I believe not only that we can do better, but that we can do much better. To effect real change in our country we need a unifying force in power and, if Hillary Clinton has proven one thing, it is that she is anything but a unifying force.

After 8 years of bush and cheny, if the people of the USA are stupid enough to vote for any Republican then they deserve what they get and I'm moving to Canada. Go Senator Clinton Go. And as for karl Rove, go to the place that is bell with an h instead of a b. After 8 years of bush and cheny we need a *** to get us out of the mess the bastard have planned to destroy the middle class and democracy in the USA.

Also I now believe that only republican operatives come on blogs on post this line which i swear i have seen all over the place , "whenever a DEM president is in power my taxes go thru the roof" . That is very said , but realize this mr republican operative that you are the only 30 Percent left of the country that now believe that Bush's huge taxes for the rich and the oil company tycoons are helping the middle class,the average guy ......

chris,

your comment is a theatre of empty rhetoric. save it.

Same old tired crap.

Only the republicans need a guide book that wont work from a man named Karl rove , The country is a much different place then in 2000 , This guide is basically telling the candidate how he should act ,its just an image ,its fake so In fact Mr Rove this means that the person is not the same the person doesn't believe in his own values enough so he needs to read a 2 page memo or hint list from you in order to win an entire country ,saover.Verr
