Why is Richardson debating Carville on Larry King tonight?

[julialnyc]

I'm having Crossfire flashbacks

It seems like a silly thing to do

[mac2]

1. Not if you are looking for a job in the new administration....

or as VP.

[crankychatter]

2. Possible VP vs Insipid Machiavellian Political Hack

It does seem undignified

[barack the house]

3. I think it is very wise Richardson is a good diplomat and will clarfy things.

[julialnyc]

9. sure... but against Carville seems like a stupid stunt

I doubt they will talk issues

[City Lights]

4. Ratings. Ratings. Ratings.

:eyes: I won't be watching.

[ErinBerin84]

5. too funny

I feel like this will be a marriage counseling session or something.

I posted this in another thread, but I just finished watching The War Room...and it's so funny! Carville starts crying when george stephanopoulos(who Carville calls "Georgie") tells him that he has reached the status of becoming a "political legend". And then Carville gives a speech to the War Room with his hands on his hips, and tells everyone in the room that "they can be trusted." Judas forshadowing?

6. good for Richardson, never thought i'd say that

7. Carville downplayed Obama's win in Mississippi (TRANSCRIPT)

Carville made this statement about Obama's win in Mississippi:

CARVILLE: I think it's a good win for him. It was widely expected. So, therefore, to some extent in the political marketplace, it's like the stock market. If you anticipate something and you meet expectations, it doesn't change a lot.

Yeah, no biggie. Obama was ahead in the polls, so...um...so what....

8. Judas comment showdown?

Or they may just be acting as surrogates for their candidates.

[julialnyc]

10. It will become the Judas showdown

[AspenRose]

11. He is?

Oh, man :rofl:

I think Bill is pissed about the "Judas" thing.

[CoffeeCat]

12. Geez, talk about a hornet's nest!!!!!

Why don't they just put a rabid wolverine in a small cage with a python that
hasn't eaten for a few months?

This is theater, and I don't think it should be done.

Carville is white-hot at Richardson, and Richardson is very frustrated and upset
with Carville and the Clinton team for their remarks about him.

Neither should do this.
