Booman-
I sent you an email this morning. Read it when you have a chance.
Hi BooMan. Allow me to plug some thoughts on Bush’s legacy. Or as someone put it to me – “Criminals have records, not legacies.”
I wish Mary Matlin would keep the leather ball in Carville’s mouth 24/7 so we wouldn’t have to hear from that POS…
Too funny.
More fodder for Carville’s little weekly televised charade with his wife , I’m sure. When will his fellow alien travelers come and take him back to the mother ship?
Hillaryous. These people just can’t stand Richardson now. I loved how he hit back at Mark Penn yesterday, too.
“An act of betrayal”, says James Carville.
Well, he would know all about that, wouldn’t he? As someone who leaked Kerry campaign strategy to the Bush camp, I mean.
Also as someone who supposedly speaks for Democratic principals (yeah, right), but who calls Democratic voters a herd of cows who will come if you throw down a lot of sileage and make a lot of noise.
Excellent point. They see it as backstabbing because that’s the world they live in. But I always liked Richardson, and have been wondering only when, not if, this would happen.
It seems tome that they are using “loyalty” like a political tool like anything else. Also, it’s worth noting that Bush demands loyalty in much the same way?
And James, just what were the 20 pieces of silver that Richards got?
Perhaps a promise of Secretary of State or better, but Clinton isn’t winning with or without Richardson and so they were promising anything other than to hold beck their wrath.
Notice that it’s loyalty to Clinton; not to the Democratic party or an ideal. Says something about how they conduct government, as well as the nature of all that early support from superdelegates.
Needed a break from the political stuff, so I checked out some Discovery News stories. One in particular, an article entitled Squirrels Network Like Facebook Friends, caught my attention.
And the picture accompanying the article was just crying out for the lolcat treatment….
Happy Saturday, everyone!
Very cute!
Since we’re being frivolous, I thought this was hilarious. I don’t recall a presidential candidate becoming an international pop culture icon before. From The World Wants Obama:
During the Super Bowl there was a Pepsi ad with Carville and Frist. I kept thinking, “Who the hell would actually be encouraged drink this particular bubbly sugar water based on those two ugly mugs?”
A few weeks ago I was standing in line at my bank, and they’ve now got TV monitors hanging from the ceiling, playing CNN. Carville was on. The general comment in the line was what an ugly, repugnant man he was. The kinder people would shudder and say, “What happened to that poor man’s face?”
He says it was a tense call to Sen Clinton. Given this:
“I’m not going to advise any other candidate when to get in and out of the race,” Mr. Richardson said after appearing in Portland with Mr. Obama. “Senator Clinton has a right to stay in the race, but eventually we don’t want to go into the Democratic convention bloodied. This was another reason for my getting in and endorsing, the need to perhaps send a message that we need unity.”
He most certainly advised her privately to drop out on that call.
interesting that after pursuing him to endorse Hillary for the past few weeks, and doing so persistently… incessantly…
the Clintons now dismiss his endorsement of Obama as insignificant.
so insignificant they worked their tails off to get it?
Whatever advice Carville is giving the Clinton campaign, I hope he’s not billing her for spiritual advice. He’s no theologian.
