"I think she is the person to beat," Democrat Minority Leader Sen. Harry Reid said. "But that doesn’t necessarily mean she is the best candidate."

"I'm one of the few in the semi-inner circle who [doesn't] think she can win" the White House. longtime Clinton aide Harold Ickes said.

"Hillary Clinton is never going to be president," former Michael Dukakis campaign manager Susan Estrich has written in her column.

"We can take preventive measures, but the best way to prevent these attacks is to go after them where they breed," Sen. John McCain said about fighting terrorism.

"[T]he opinion which gives to the judges the right to decide what laws are constitutional and what not . . . would make the judiciary a despotic branch. . . . [T]o consider the judges as the ultimate arbiters of all constitutional questions [is] a very dangerous doctrine indeed, and one which would place us under the despotism of an oligarchy. . . The Constitution has erected no such single tribunal," Thomas Jefferson said.

Rove target

Dan Balz of the Washington Post reports on the Plame leak and the apparent focus on Karl Rove:

Now, a fast-moving series of decisions over the past week involving Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper have brought a renewed public focus on what role White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove may have played in disclosing the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame.

A White House spokesman long ago asserted that Rove was "not involved" in disclosing Plame's identity. Rove, who has testified before a grand jury investigating the case, likewise has maintained that he did not break the law, saying in a television interview, "I didn't know her name, and I didn't leak her name."

But Fitzgerald still appears to want more answers about Rove's role. The prosecutor is apparently focused on Rove's conversations with Cooper.
