Top Political Adviser to Bush Will Pay visitKarl Rove is Expected to Talk About Social Security on Friday.

Posted on: Wednesday, 6 July 2005, 21:00 CDT

Karl Rove, principal political adviser to President Bush, is expected to visit Omaha on Friday, according to Nebraska Republican Party officials.

Rove is expected to talk about Social Security and perhaps attend a party fundraiser, the officials said Tuesday.

A White House spokesman said visits such as Rove's typically are not formally announced until a few days before the event for security reasons.

Rove is the political strategist dubbed by Bush as the architect of his 2004 re-election.

He created a political stir in June when he accused liberals of wanting to offer "therapy and understanding" to the Sept. 11 terrorists. Democrats accused Rove of politicizing the 9/11 attacks.

A Rove visit to Nebraska comes as two Republicans, Omaha lawyer David Kramer and former Attorney General Don Stenberg, are running for the party's nomination for the U.S. Senate.

Elizabeth Dole, head of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, has said the attempt to unseat Sen. Ben Nelson, D-Neb., will be near the top of the party's agenda in 2006.
