    Hillary is absolutely the worst mistake my party can make in nominating her. She is not just divisive with the country as a whole but, in her own party where over half refuse to support her. I do hope those who support other candidates vote to defeat her in the primaries. As whitehouseneighbor says, let's hope Obama follows some of this. I do hope he gets the nomination and then, our country can go forward and heal.

    Why the heII is Newsweek giving this war criminal liar a column? Absolutely disgusting, Newsweek! I'm canceling my subscription too!

    This is why she cannot be the Democratic nominee. She would be so easy to beat in a change election even when the fresher candidate is a Republican because she is from a dynasty, the Clintons have already ruled. She is not authentic and has a closet full of flip-flops, and another one with Bill's mistresses' skeletons. Democrats need a new face that will transform the general election debate, challenge the process by not having talking points already memorized about him by the GOP, someone who will contrast the white male Republican - who will then be cast as the status quo - because he embodies true change in image alone. Obama. His campaign should read this article along with Karl's comments on being more upfront about making the Clintons releasie their White House records.

    Oh yeah, Karl, thanks for the mess we're in.

      When I say that Obama should use Mr. Rove's advice, I'm saying that he should cite it as how divisive the general election will get if Hillary is the nominee. Articles like this prove that Hillary will be a nominee that is easy to beat because so many people have already made up their minds about her, and most don't like her. Obama said at one of the debates that fighting Hillary is a fight Republicans are very used to having since they have been fighting since the 90s. What is bad is that Karl is right, although Hillary is tough, she is definitely beatable. Let's move this country forward.

    Bravo for Hilliary for coolly responding to a direct insult by Karl Rove. Glad Rove's dirty politics are being aired. It will be interesting to see which thoughtless republicans are following his lead.

    Karl Rove, Newsweek? What are you thinking? When my subscription runs out, and at this point I wish it were today, I will not be subscribing again. I don???t need Karl Rove. You don???t need Karl Rove. No one needs Karl Rove. There are lots of people out there with opinions and ideas worth thinking about, but but he is not among them. Get a grip, Newsweek.

    What happened Rove? Thought you left the White House to 'spend more time with your family' ?

    What happened? I thought Rove left the White House to spend more time with his family?

    Sound, rational, reasonable advice. Lacks a certain amount of "flash" and "grandstanding" but I think that there will be enough of that from the Left (witness the near-hysterical comments this rather benign column has aroused.)

    Republicans DO need to work harder in minority areas, our candidate won't have the recognition Hillary acquired from her husband. It is going to be a horse race.

    Thanks, Karl!

    They hired KOS, a x peace corps volunteer. Hillary paid him for his blogging. Carville was Clinton's 'Satan' or devil as he called himself. He was hired too. Carville really destroyed allot of lives, but the new hires don't seem to compare. Is it fair for Hillary to sell out Carville with these new poeple who really aren't as destructive?

    The Plame outing was done by her and Ames back in 95. No one was prosecuted under IIPA because Plame wasn't.

      Kos served honorably in the U.S. Army, not the Peace Corp. ANY evidence Hillary paid Kos? WHO's lives did Carville destroy? Plame was successfully a NOC, until betrayed by the Bush administration. Even in the fantasy where Ames gave up her identity, he gave it to the Russians, who are also very interested in non-proliferation, especially w/ radical Islam. You're entitled to your own opinions, not your own facts.

    This article underscores how devious Karl Rove really is. He makes a speech implying, with a nudge and a wink, that Hillary left her vanity mirror in the West Wing... and then like a lying bully in the schoolyard says, "I didn't *really*mean to say that Hillary put it there". What a weasel! What Rove is telling Republicans is that they have to be a weasel like him to win the presidency.

    I cant wait to see what lies he has in store for Hillary. Maybe he can invent an African American child that Hillary had out of wedlock, just like he invented one for McCain.

    I'm shocked Newsweek would let Karl Rove write a column. The man used the media to out a covert CIA agent. Shame on you for hiring this treasonous swine.

  • Posted By: Paulie200 @ 11/18/2007 4:18:29 AM

    I can't get past the fact that Rove starts his first column by admitting to repeatedly telling a misleading story about a mirror in Clinton's old office. Worse, when challenged about the lie, he accuses Hillary of being "Hard and Brittle." Some advice Karl, you're out in the daylight now, and the audience you've created pretty much hates your boss, and you too. Try to be civil.

      A dishearted citizen may very well feel this way, but in realty no future forcast can be set in stone. One thing for sure, GeorgeJr.'s horse has thrown a shoe a way back and he's limping for dear life. Do what you can, there is no one coming.

    You say "speak of core convictions" Karl? Which convictions; pedophilia, money laundering, perjury...
    Just wondering

  • Posted By: jaydee1943 @ 11/18/2007 1:55:35 AM

    How come Karl doesn't mention voter caging, voter roll perging, not providing voting equipment in largely Democratic Precincts, and the many other dirty tricks both illegal and immoral he has devised and implemented in our nation during the subjegation of our democracy?

    Excellent article by Mr. Rove. If Newsweak is going to have Mr. Rove writing for it, I might actually read it, or at least his columns, because it's been pretty much unreadable for the last decade. The only reason I even know how awful it's been is because they send a free copy to my office. Well done, Newsweek. Keep up the good work.

  • Posted By: ghostcommander @ 11/18/2007 1:30:49 AM

    Rove, you have lost it! Go back to your pasture.

  • Posted By: dayvel @ 11/18/2007 12:42:27 AM

    And by the way, that was not an obscenity that got censored. The profanity filter saw an objectionable word inside a larger word. Kinda funny - unlike Mr. Rove.
