You really can't make these kinds of stories up.
As detailed below in the short story today in the LA Times, an eyewitness to the "actual liturgical ceremony" states Rove had his office (previously Hillary Clinton's) exorcised from Hillary's "left-wing spirit".
Clinton spokesman Phillippe Reins had the killer comeback stating they must have "exorcise(d) any lingering competence right out of the building".
I am certain Rove wasn't in his office when the exorcism took place....it would be too dangerous for his own actual demonic possession.
Exorcism of Clinton's Spirit? Rove Says No
September 7, 2006
WASHINGTON -- Karl Rove says he's not the Exorcist.
Rove, the Bush political shaman Democrats love to demonize, enlisted a trio of clergymen to exorcise Hillary Rodham Clinton's left-wing spirit when he moved into her West Wing office in 2001, according to an unflattering new biography.
"I talked to Karl; he said it's not true and, beyond that, he will have no comment," White House spokeswoman Dana Perino said.
Clinton smiled and shook her head in disbelief Wednesday when asked about the tale, which appears in "The Architect: Karl Rove and the Master Plan for Absolute Power," by James Moore and Wayne Slater. "I'm speechless," she finally said, heading toward a Senate elevator.
Later, Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines quipped, "If the story is true ... they sure did exorcise any lingering competence right out of the building."
Deal Hudson, a former Fordham University professor whom Rove enlisted to woo Catholic voters, told the authors that he witnessed the exorcism, which he described as "an actual liturgical ceremony."
He did not return a message asking for comment.
