[elleng]

Longtime ​Clinton ​confidante ​James Carville says Vice President Joe Biden ​has a “track record” of losing.

“He’s done it twice, and he hasn’t had the best track record doing it,” James Carville said Sunday​ ​of Biden’s previous presidential runs, speaking on​ John Catsimatidis’​ AM 970​ radio show​.

OH CRAP, Get that guy OUTTA HERE, NO MORE carbuncle!!!

[cali]

1. you got to love the alacrity of her crew.

[leftofcool]

2. That is just James being James.

And he is not wrong on this. Joe does not have a good track record. That doesn't mean Dems don't want him in the race though.

[virtualobserver]

27. just Team Hillary being Team Hillary, you mean.

[askew]

39. Either does Hillary. She's 0 for 1 in presidential nomination contests.

As for "James", the guy is scum as are most of the people the Clintons have surrounded themselves with. That says a lot about the Clintons IMO.

[HereSince1628]

3. Have Mouth, Will Surrogate. It's what he's paid to be

The Rajun Cajun is the meanest mouth for hire this side of Ft Smith.

[leftofcool]

5. He is that and always has been.

[Motown_Johnny]

4. And in 6-8 months the same can be said of Hillary.

Those people are just terrible. All of them.

[bigdarryl]

6. Well he is right

[leftofcool]

7. James is usually right, it is how he says it that just ticks people off.

I, on the other hand, think he is a hoot!

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

8. He was elected and re-elected to the Senate six times.

Hardly a losing track record.

[leftofcool]

11. I think James is talking about the presidency.

[karynnj]

38. which his candidate also lost.

Even though she was close to handed it on a silver platter.

[TheBlackAdder]

9. While mostly accurate and direct on his delivery, I'm more mystified by who he married!

.

Conservative Pundit Mary Matalin.

He's explained it before, but still a mystery to me.

.

[leftofcool]

10. They have been married for years.

I think they compliment each other but I would love to be a fly on the wall in their home.

[LiberalArkie]

26. I don't think they care about anything but the money that being political brings them.

Their political "beliefs" if you can say they believe in anything probably amounts to nothing. As one Democratic and one Republican, I would imagine they would have stronger beliefs if one was a Arkansas Razorback and one a Texas Longhorn.

[catnhatnh]

12. Hillary would never attack another democratic candidate...

...she has people for that...

[leftofcool]

16. James did not attack Joe Biden. He stated a truth or did you not know.

Joe Biden ran for president twice and lost both times.

[catnhatnh]

20. So then it is certainly not an attack for me to say

that Clinton lost EVERY Presidential campaign she ran and never was elected even once to a position as high in government as Biden has been elected twice...

[leftofcool]

21. Except that Clinton has ran only once for President, not "every presidential campaign"

I don't see your statement as an attack. I hope Joe Biden runs the good race. He is my second choice and will poll right up with Hillary. Will be a great race if he gets in.

[catnhatnh]

24. Then losing once does constitute every....N/T

[dsc]

34. except she is in one now

and it isn't, last I checked over. So yes, to say she has lost every Presidential campaign she has been in is a lie, plain and simple.

[NYCButterfinger]

13. Carville is tough. I think he should be Hillary's campaign

manager. You're right, this is James being James.

[frylock]

14. ...he said as he backs the candidate with a record of 0-1.

and for the record, THIS is what bashing looks like right here, Team Clinton.

[ericson00]

29. Hillary in 2008 was much closer in delegates to the winner than Biden, who has won ZERO

in either 1988 or 2008. I love the Ragin' Cajun.

[frylock]

30. closer in delegates means jack crap..

0-1. Goose egg. First loser.

[Kurska]

15. Um

Those who live in glass houses...

[leftofcool]

17. ?

[Kurska]

18. His pony in this show has a 0% rate of winning presidential primaries. EOM

[leftofcool]

22. Like I said, it is James being James.

[Buns_of_Fire]

19. A shot across the bow of the DNC?

From: HRC
To: DNC
cc: DWS

Look, you assholes. I've spent a lot of time and money and called in a lot of favors to get this far again. If you think you're going to screw me over by floating this 'Biden' crap, I suggest you rethink that strategy. Remember, Bill and I are on first-name terms with the people who own your asses.

I look forward to our next meeting, and hope you have a wonderful day.

[snagglepuss]

32. lol. That is damn funny.

[magical thyme]

23. getting a little defensive there, dontcha think?

carbuncle?

[tularetom]

25. Is that fool still around?

Im happy I cut the cable if he's going to start showing up on all the pundit shows as a Clinton surrogate.

Somebody needs to tell him that mouthy hillbilly act of his isn't all that cute anymore.

Maybe Jon Stewart could pay another visit to him, just to put him in his place.

[jfern]

28. I don't think he ever blew a 25 point lead for the Presidential primary

[Metric System]

31. How could he? He never had one.

[DonCoquixote]

33. and Hillary's hounds are UN-LEASHED!

Really, I love how you ran over the fact he Won with Obama, but somehow I think Obama's success does not matter, considering you slammed him all the way.

The only silver lining of Joe running is that we will see Hillary's people slam Obama, which will lead to a rather embarrassing confrontation with BLM

[John Poet]

36. James Carville is a Fucking Traitor who is sleeping with the enemy

and ought to be horse-whipped for turning traitor on Kerry in the 2004 election. After doing what he did, he can just keep his damned mouth off any future elections. Hell, he probably did it because he didn't want a Democratic incumbent in office in 2008--- for the sake of YOU KNOW WHO...



Did Carville Tip Bush Off to Kerry Strategy (Woodward)

By M.J. Rosenberg | bio
I just came across a troubling incident that Bob Woodward reports in his new book. Very troubling.


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.

So what happened?

James Carville gets on the phone with his wife, Mary Matalin, who is at the White House with Bush.

"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.'

"Matalin went to Cheney to report...You better tell the President Cheney told her."

Matalin does, advising Bush that "somebody in authority needed to get in touch with J. Kenneth Blackwell, the Republican Secretary of State in Ohio who would be in charge of any challenge to the provisional votes." An SOS goes out to Blackwell.

The rest is history.

Does something about this story stink to high heaven!

[karynnj]

37. obnoxious I guess he forgot that HRC also lost the nomination

Many people lose before they win a later election.
