Falling Star..

I never understood what people saw in Palin. She appeared to an average person but no real grasp of the nation as a whole. After SNL and Charlie Gibson she maybe done. The selection of Palin appeared as a cheap stunt. McCain will be hurt by her in the long term.

Palin makes McCain look like a panderer. Just trying to get women votes without addressing woman issues. James Carlville was really funny when he refereed to Palins mayoral office as a doughnut shop.

Politics is a tough sport. I hope America dose not fall apart after Bush. God Bless America has new meaning today.

Carville

Only one of his one liners wasn't true. Ann Coulter arrived on a (Herbert) Hoover vacuum cleaner. She is loaning it to McCain when she is done.

Nutcase

Carville needs to work on his delivery. He is just too bland.

James Carville

And this will enlighten the undecided voter? Hopefully not, we have too much fluff in this campaign...by both sides.

Carville comments

Absolutely on the money!! Wonderful, keep them coming James.

This takes the cake...

I agree with Catherine of IL (I'm from Joliet, myself and now reside in Minneapolis). James has always been a funny man to me and he hit each comment on the nose. I especially love the comment about Ann C (the witch from EVERYWHERE)...he couldn't have been more correct than Palin.

Carville in Little Rock

I attended James Carville’s lecture at Philander Smith College. I am a Little Rock native (and yes, I still miss Bill………and Hillary, too). I went, in part, because I needed some hope from someone who helped take one of the best presidents to Washington in my lifetime. At least I got an evening full of belly laughs……..and nothing delivered with malice as the others might have.

And for hope, I got this, though I can’t quote from memory: James tells of living as a child in Cajun Country Carville, Louisiana where his grandfather owned a little grocery store and there was one road passing through town…not exactly a place full of opportunity. He told of an old Cajun who wasn’t so smart, who sat on the levy day after day staring into the Mississippi. One day, as a boy sitting on the levee with him, James asked, “Where you reckon this road’ll take you?” And the old guy says: “Son, I reckon this road will take you anywhere you want to go.”

I reckon it did. Keep on going, James! We need hope AND we need to laugh!

Bah,

Bilgewater to two of the other commenters,

Just substitute names of those on the left for those getting skewered by Carville on the right and you guys would happy as clams.
