Why is Rove Attacking Clinton?
This article that appeared on an Australian newspaper's website on Monday, August 20, 2007, raises an intriguing question: why is Karl Rove going on television and saying that Clinton won't win the presidency? Does he worry about her or is he trying to get Democrats to rally to her because he thinks that she is easy to beat? According to the article this is the tactic that Rove used in 2004 because he thought that Kerry would be easier to beat than John Edwards. Of course, it could just be that Rove is, as Clinton herself says, "obsessed" with her.

He's attacking her because she's the frontrunner. If you recall they did the same thing to Dean, releasing anonymously sourced tips to journalists saying they were dying to run against Dean. It's a head fake.
What's interesting is that he's saying anything at all. It seems the wingers have pretty much left Clinton alone, giving the appearance that they want her to be the nominee. So I don't quite get it either... maybe they are starting to fear her and are trying to drive the discussion around her negatives rather than the GOP fields... which are plentiful.
