Every time Karl Rove says anything aboot anything, I think that he’s up to something. He could be picking the Jets over the Broncos and I would think there was some kind of ulterior motive. That’s not a knock on the man; it’s what makes him a mad genius.
So when he has an editorial in the Wall Street Journal praising Barack Obama’s cabinet picks…
Mr. Obama’s announcement of his economic team on Monday provided surprisingly positive clarity. He picked as Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, the respected, soft-spoken New York Fed president. Mr. Geithner has been a key player with Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson and Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke in confronting the financial crisis. Every major decision in the rescue effort came only after the three agreed.
The National Economic Council director-designee, Larry Summers, is another solid pick. Mr. Summers has been an advocate for trade liberalization, he was the Clinton administration’s negotiator for the financial deregulation known as Gramm-Leach-Bliley, and he even attempted to rein in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in the 1990s.
Somewhere in his mothers basement, there’s a Kos Kid claiming that this all part of a vast right-wing conspiracy and Obama is in on it. 
I expect his column singing the praises of Hillary Clinton by mid-week.
UPDATE: Rush hearts Obama?
