1. Carville is dishonest.

[geek tragedy]

2. I blame CNN.

Carville is who he is. It's up to CNN to not put him up there during primary season.

[blm]

4. Carville has been working for Hillary2008 since 1999 - A HUGE problem with that wing

of our party.

They have proved they are willing to protect war criminals just to maintain their own turn at power.

And some will even MARRY them.

3. Carville wife Matlin is a war criminal

She was on the Iraq study group that gave out all the FALSE intel on Iraq to the public. He needs Hillary to win so his wife won't be indicted when a Dem prez gets in and exposes all the CRIMES of the Bushies. He is an abomination!

[mod mom]

10. Her participation in the WHIG group needs further scutiny. Selling a war w/o basis is not

only war crimes but treason as well. I'sd like to hear about her involvement in outing Valerie Plame as well.

12. Amen Brotha

Let us call it like it is. :)

[klook]

13. And Campbell Brown's husband is a Republican scumbag

She's married to Dan Senor, former(?) Fox News dipshit and Paul Bremer assistant. In fact, he's working on Mitt Romney's campaign.

5. Carville cleared the way for a Clinton run in '08:

Did Carville Tip Bush Off to Kerry Strategy (Woodward)


By M.J. Rosenberg | bio




On page 344, Woodward describes the doings at the White House in the early morning hours of Wednesday, the day after the '04 election.

Apparently, Kerry had decided not to concede. There were 250,000 outstanding ballots in Ohio.

So Kerry decides to fight. In fact, he considers going to Ohio to camp out with his voters until there is a recount. This is the last thing the White House needs, especially after Florida 2000.

"Carville told her he had some inside news. The Kerry campaign was going to challenge the provisional ballots in Ohio -- perhaps up to 250,000 of them. 'I don't agree with it, Carville said. I'm just telling you that's what they're talking about.'

6. Big deal. Carville has been a CNN political analyst for years. He co-hosted "Crossfire".

:eyes:

[geek tragedy]

11. He's an active Clinton supporter.

Should we have Michelle Obama or David Bonior doing post-debate coverage too?

[oasis]

14. That's been his job. He's good at it. Michelle, David, you, me or other amatuers

would lose the viewing audience.

If Carville were a candidate for office AND an active political analyst, there would be a clear conflict of interests.

7. Is there anyone in America who doesn't know?

That Carville was on Clinton's staff?

His comments were actually more 'measured' than I expect from him.

The Gergen comment in the NYTimes blog was a bit over the top -- he's advised 5 presidents-- Republicans and Democrats.

[mod mom]

9. the fact they had both Carville & Gergen to represent the Dems showed how bias CNN is.

Blatantly appalling!

[asha]

8. Mika Brezinski

Did you see Z_Big with his daughter pumping Obama on Joe S. Mika is all over no no wait Obama.

[GreenTea]

15. Carville, a DLC asshole- Always ripping the great Howard Dean head of DNC- Carville's wanted....

that DNC job....then the DLC & the DNC would have Hillary's nomination all sewn up and the Democratic party would then become one big DLC corporate run organization....much to the republicans delight!
