Randi says people "not from the bayou" don't understand Carville

[funkybutt]

Is that true? I know his accent is strong, but i still understand him fine. Is that only because i live in Louisiana?

2. you ain't ever BEEN to the bayou

don't ever COME to the bayou
'cause you wouldn't UNDERSTAND the bayou.

[merh]

3. Nobody understands Carville.

He married Mary Matalin, didn't he! :crazy:

[CottonBear]

6. True that.

The sex must be really good! ;)

9. EEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The image you conjured up has blinded me

EOM

11. What else could explain their weird pairing?

They have two kids so it must have happened. ;) :eyes:

[emulatorloo]

14. Explains it, but it can't be pretty. . .

but I guess the best never is.

[tigereye]

18. I think it's cool

they are two sides of the political operative coin.

[merh]

15. Ewwwwwwwwww

What folks really don't understand about Carville is how he has stayed married to Matalin! :puke:

[GumboYaYa]

17. Carville says that he would rather be with someone who

is aware of the world around them and thinks about big issues, even if they disagree with him, than be with someone who just doesn't care.

I can understand that.

[merh]

19. Polar opposites it would seem.

Or, Carville is not the dem he professes to be.

I can't understand it.

4. Randi annoys me with some of the things she says. nt

[melissinha]

10. just like anyone else she makes assumptions

that are incorrect...

PLus she talks over good guests and callers... But overall the girl is good.

5. I have no trouble understanding him. I think Randi can't hear him OK.

The rest of us have no problems. I've never heard anyone say that they can't understand him. (I'm from NC & TN. My husband is from New Orleans and we live in GA)

[melissinha]

7. I could understand it.

I live in Texas though.... Have gotten used to the accent.... It was a little hard to understand Carville in the audio she plays cause Novak had a temper tantrum and raised his voice OVER Carville.... plus WHINY Novak drove me up the wall.

But when I saw it on video, Carville was audible and I could understand him.

8. I'm from New Orleans..

with some relatives who have strong Cajun accents. I understand him fine.

My partner, from rural Alabama, understands him well also.

[no name no slogan]

13. Carville is a ass

he worked for anti-Chavez forces during the recent referendum in Venezuela-- the same forces who tried to overthrow Chavez in a military coup.

he's a political hack who rents himself out to the highest bidder-- no more, no less.

[Upfront]

21. Agree!

[steely]

16. I do have a wee bit of trouble sync'ing with him sometimes...

if he gets going fast - but it could be just me (from PA).

[BiggJawn]

20. I don't understand him...

Oh, I get the Coon-Ass lingo just FINE, its the whole Carville "schtick" that has me at odds...

[LSK]

23. i have trouble understanding him

Novak has a weird voice btw.
