Rove on Palin: ‘I think she gets in’
dailycaller.com ^ | 8-20-11 | Alec Jacobs

Karl Rove, a former advisor to President George W. Bush, said on Fox News Saturday morning that he thinks former Alaska Gov. and 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin will enter the 2012 presidential race around Labor Day.

Palin “has a schedule next week that looks like that of a candidate, not a celebrity,” Rove said, adding that Palin’s campaign-style video released when she traveled to the Iowa State Fair makes it look like she’ll make a run for the White House. (Mark Levin: ‘I believe Sarah Palin will run for president’)

Palin is schedule to speak at a Tea Party of America-sponsored event in Iowa on September 3, which was just moved to a bigger location to host a larger crowd.

“This is her last chance. She either gets in or gets out. I think she gets in,” Rove said.

A late announcement “always raises questions about whether a candidate has the time to raise money, build an organization and meet voters face-to-face,” the Washington Examiner’s Byron York writes.

But Rove addressed that issue on Fox: “[Palin] thinks the normal rules don’t apply. If you’re Sarah Palin, you just show up and the money comes and the organization comes and the people come.”

Then he’ll tear her to shreds. Rove belongs to the part of the GOP that isn’t any different than most dems.

Oh, don't worry, Owlboy, I'm sure she's got her ducks in a row- bet she even asked Todd for permission. ; )

I wonder when Tokyo Rove will figure out that the more he attacks her, the stronger she gets?

Keep it up, Karl!

Karl Rove is a horses ass..he hates Sarah Palin and does NOT want her to run. He is just all of a sudden saying now that he thinks she will run(All this time he said she would not) because he’s hoping once she hears that he thinks she will run, that she will back out. Sorry Rove, she is gonna kick some RINO Establishment behind!

Evidently Byron never heard of SarahPAC.

And as soon as she gets in, money will flood into her Presidential campaign.

I just hope she doesn’t wait too long like Fred Thompson did three years ago.

He is also the "Architect" of the conditions that set the stage for Obama's rise to power.
