How to Beat Hillary (Next) November

Mr. Rove, the GOP nominee you have just described, is Mike Huckabee. On every point- authentic on what he believes, optimistic and visionary for our country, clear on the need for victory in Iraq, able to garner minority votes (48% of African American votes when he was governor of Arkanasas for over 10 years), issues important to families, dealing with the "health" problem, not "health-care" problem, etc., etc. Vote Huckabee!

Karl Rove made the following statement--"As people do better, they start voting like Republicans--unless they have too much education and vote Democratic" Rove, how much education is too much? Does Rove favor eliminating colleges?

There will be two commercials that will do Hillary in and for which no defense will be sufficient.

First, there will be one recounting the $100,000 trading profit she made in cattle futures as a first and last-time trader. Then there will be interviews of real traders talking about the likelihood of doing such a thing. The only conclusion: the profits were a payoff.

Second, there will be a commercial once Rudy is selected that will contrast Rudy kicking Arafat out of Lincoln Center and tearing up the $10 million check. It will be contrasted with Hillary hugging Mrs. Arafat after the terrorists wife accused Israel of using gas on Palestinians.

That is all that needs to be said.

What crap. Why doesn't Rove talk about what REALLY needs to be done to beat Hilary? Unleash anonymous attack groups to run "issue" ads that blatantly lie and spread gossip and false inuendo about the candidates. Commission groups to do "push poll" phone calls. Put officials from your party in charge of falsely and illegally purging legitimate voters from voting lists, use "caging" lists to disenfranchise military members who's ethnic and economic backgrounds make them more likely to vote Democratic, and have your smears distributed and rehearsed by top political operatives in the Republican party for constant, rehearsed repetition on mainstream media argument shows. Be ready to cry about "liberal bias" if anyone insists on trying to make someone verify facts or speak genuinely about the issues.

Why Newsweek finds it necessary to give such a large platform to someone who's only "contribution" has been the debasement of political discourse and the elevation of "winning" over the democratic process is beyond me.

If you are trusting and following Rove's advice, you are trusting and following the the WRONG advice.
Rove only cares about a Republican empire, NOT America as a whole! Please, America, don't let Rove
fool us again!

"Calculating," he sais about Hillary Clinton. Please! He created the worst President in the history of the country. His role in "selling" of George Bush to naive voters is so much more than calculating - how about Frankenstein?

The Libtards who read this parody of a news magazine apparently can't abide anything that doesn't fit into their dogmatic narrative of recently revised history. I'll bet most of these posters didn't even read the (emminently innocuous) article lest they chance piercing their protective bubble of misinformation. I guess there is always Time Magazine.....

You can say this about Rove. He knows how to stay on message. Nothing NEW here. Way to go Newsweek, looks like you hired "the Bush Apologist." Time for him to start rewriting recent history.

Patrick Henry222-you're clever. OK, not really, but you are obviously an idiot. Thanks for contributing-nothing.

You can say this about Rove. He's still on message. Nothing NEW here. Way to go Newsweek. Looks like you hired the "Bush Apologist."

Rove - The only thing you add to this world is to increase the number of people who vomit. I guess you must have a large share in Pepto-Bisol...

geez kkkarl, is that all you got ???

some bullshit story about a mirror that somehow makes hillary look bad, even if it wasn't her mirror

don't you realize that we can figure out exactly who the drama queen was who had the mirror installed ???

and as to your advice about being genuine, don't you mean they should look genuine when they're pandering to people ???

mitt, rudy, mccain ????

genuine ???

time to stop huffing the acetone dude

nice try though

I'll assume you're just testing the waters

I hope newsweek was impressed by the number of subscription cancelations you incure

keep up the good work, and smoke a number for me dude

Rove continues to be Rove, defining the opposition negatively and focusing on how to win, even when it's obvious that the Republican candidates don't have to care or honestly believe in any of his suggestions for what they should promise or emphasize to win votes. Hence we had W, who turned out to be a walking contradiction of everything he claimed to stand for in the first election. He taught W how to win but did not care in the least about how to lead, nor did he care in the least about what is best for America. Hence we are where we are. Newsweek has a right to publish his thoughts and pay him lots of money, but we the people would like to read the thoughts of smart people who really care about what is good and right for the United States of America, its people and its brave soldiers. We need a leader who cares, and we have some good people to choose from for once in a long while. Rove gave us a non-leader, a chump for people like Putin and Mussharef, and someone who really, really doesn't have a clue and doesn't care. Unless you think the emergency room is a substitute for medical insurance, or 'Bring 'em on' is a good anti-terrorist policy.

Clinton and her followers are hypocritical and should be taken down a notch for playing both sides of coin, where the woman, obviouslly, has no straight answers to tough questions. She also has no proven experiance or past successes at achieving anything substancial enough to be considered Presidential material.
