"Rovian Strategies"
LMFAO. You think Obama is scared of ROVE???

"Rovian Strategies" Worked on Kerry, on Gore and they will work on Clinton. Because Rove knows how they tick. He knows how they will respond and he plays the game like a chess master. Always 5 moves ahead. Obama is a wild card. Rove has no understanding of Obama's mind, where Obama came from or how Obama thinks, and he has no idea how Obama is going to react to "Rovian Strageties".

ROVE FEARS OBAMA. So do all the other repukes. Why do you think they are spending all this time and money to divide us? Why do you think most republicans would rather run against Hillary? They are afraid. Republicans talk all the time about people pulling themselves up by their bootstraps and achieving the American dream. Yet most of them had everything handed to them on a silver platter and try to do as much as possible to keep the "American Dream" out of reach of people.
Now they are facing someone who did it. A black man, who against all odds is a serious Presidential candidate. And they are scared shitless. So take your sad little 20th century "rovian Strategies" and stick em' where the sun don't shine. This is a 21st century game and those who live by the "old ways" will die by the old ways.

Some sad little Hill supporters may claim that Obama is an elitist, but the repukes know better. Obama spells doom for them. Because they have no idea "how to handle him"

I'm getting on a plane so if I don't respond it's not because I'm "chicken", I'm kinda busy.

1. I'll say, they can't decide whether he's "elite" or "radical."

2. They get 2 cracks at beating Obama - one via Clinton, and the other directly....
... Obama has to win both - and it looks like he will.

4. I think they also fear him because he's not part of the Washington establishment
They stand to lose their power utterly if he is elected. The old politics of dividing the country and then dividing up the spoils will no longer be played.

5. They ARE scared.
If they were enthusiastic about their prospects for their candidate, they would be rabid with the anticipation of lining our candidate up to face McCain one-on-one. Instead, they want to keep us fighting and bickering in our own primary while they try to put lipstick on their pig. They know all too well that once we have a candidate and we start unifying behind them, that all of the momentum McCain has started to build will collapse.

Their only hope? A bloody, fractured Democratic primary culminating in a brokered convention that serves to create deep and lasting rifts in our party.
