Saturday Night Live mocks the Tea Tantrumers:
"Do they just get on the phone and say we're having a rally in 90 seconds, bring a sign!"

Carville's such a shrinking violet.
Oops. Maybe shrinkage isn't the best word to use in this context.

British boycotters, here's a little something you might want to send to some of your neighbors:
Carville was positively (make that, negatively) sputtering:
After Sen. Lindsey Graham says Glenn Beck "doesn't represent the Republican party" nad "not the poliical analysis I buy into," CNN's James Carville lays into the Fox News host:Who will be the first Rushpublic to feign outrage and demand an apology from Carville?
"I think he's nuts... Just out and out nuts. And I also think that he's a blatant hypocrite. Here's somebody that sits on his show and weeping about how much he loves America... and then, he's absolutely giddy when his country doesn't get the Olympics."
"He wouldn't know the difference between a football bat and a hockey court," Carville adds.

I think I like Matalin better when she's sniping. This was loverly, but there was a dose of Ew Factor:
Good for her for standing by her "handsome manly, manly man"... as only she could, or would. As they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.“I love that look. I’ve always loved that look. You’re the most compelling, handsome manly, manly man,” Matalin said. “He looked like a girly girl,” she said of Carville’s SNL double.
“You’re my favorite Skeletor,” Matalin also told her husband with whom she has two daughters. “We’ve very proud of you. The girls and I are very proud of you for Saturday Night Live. That’s wonderful.”
“A beautiful wife and beautiful children,” Carville said as he flashed his wide trademark grin, “What can I say?”
Skip to about 15:45 if you prize your sanity. FireDogLake put up the shorter, more relevant bit.

After King showed video of the crazy birther who disrupted a meeting with poor GOP Rep. Mike Castle, demanding he acknowledge Obama was born in Kenya (that's one birther claim); and after Carville denounced them as a "poor, pathetic" fringe group, King gave Cheney a chance to distance herself from them. But Cheney demurred, telling King the Birther movement exists because "People are uncomfortable with a president who is reluctant to defend the nation overseas."
I remember thinking when I saw this promod on CNN that for once I was glad that they married each other so they can be irrelevant together. I mean really, other than Bob Schrum, what pundit has been wrong more than these two lately? Remember Carville and his fight against the 50 State Strategy? Or Matalin comparing President Obama to a Chinese dinner? Yeah, party on now while you can guys.

CNN provided the camera, You Tube provided the video:
Fireworks. And if Rove were any more full of it, he'd have to be scooped into a giant Hefty bag.
Don't know about you, but that really doesn't sound all that healthy for the country...
Amen James.
"Do you want to be in a church that's chasing out heretics, or do you want to be in a church that's trying to bring in converts?"
-- James Carville, on Good Morning America, discussing his new book, 40 More Years.
I may not always agree with Carville, but you have to concede that this was apot on and the R's fell right in. Via Taegan.
Politico reports that Democratic strategists Stanley Greenberg and James Carville included Rush Limbaugh's name in an October poll "and learned their longtime tormentor was deeply unpopular with many Americans, especially younger voters... Soon it clicked: Democrats realized they could roll out a new GOP bogeyman for the post-Bush era by turning to an old one in Limbaugh, a polarizing figure since he rose to prominence in the 1990s."
James Carville and Paul Begala began pounding on Limbaugh frequently in their appearances on CNN and White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel elevated the strategy last weekend "by bringing up the conservative talker, unprompted, on CBS's Face the Nation and calling him the 'the voice and the intellectual force and energy behind the Republican Party.'"
Says Carville: "It's great for us, great for him, great for the press. The only people he's not good for are the actual Republicans in Congress."

"The reason the Republicans found Joe the Plumber was to find someone hanging around a toilet other than Larry Craig."The video is one of my earlier efforts. If you've already seen it, ignore. I just threw it in for fun.
-- James Carville, quoted by Politico.
When was the last time Republican loving (literally) concern troll Carville had any sort of electoral bonafides? Oh, yeah, 16 years ago. More better Democratic pundits please.
(CNN) — Have the Democrats wasted the first night of the convention?
Yes, says Democratic Strategist and CNN contributor James Carville.
Speaking on CNN, Carville said the party was too soft in its attacks on John McCain Monday night — the same mistake, Carville says, Democrats made at the 2004 convention.
"The way they planned it tonight was supposed to be sort of the personal — Michelle Obama will talk about Barack Obama personally, Ted Kennedy was a very personal, emotional speech," Carville said. "But I guarantee on the first night of the Republican Convention, you're going to hear talk about Barack Obama, commander-in-chief, tax cuts, et cetera, et cetera."

Sigh, I hate to admit it, but this is one MTP I'm not going to watch. I admired Tim as much as anyone, but it's been almost 24 hours of straight memorials on MSNBC and I do believe I have heard enough.
The guest list has been finalized for tomorrow's Meet the Press. Tom Brokaw will host, with guests Mike Barnicle, James Carville and Mary Matalin, Meet the Press EP Betsy Fischer, Doris Kearns Goodwin, Gwen Ifill and Maria Shriver.
From the NBC News release:Tim Russert was the longest serving moderator of "Meet the Press" — taking over the helm of the program on December 8, 1991. The moderator chair will be empty this Sunday in his honor.

"I'm for Senator Clinton, but I think the great likelihood is that Obama will be the nominee... As soon as I determine when that is, I'll send him a check."
