    James Carville has standards, however misguided he may be. I read his book once back when I was a lib (well, one book out of many others by Democratic spokespeople and politicians and pundits).

    He's genuinely a good author; I read another lib that was a politician and he just didn't have the same genuineness as Carville.

    Carville is also quite the "labor Democrat," which I can somewhat admire, and he literally shouted that "people are dying out here" on live television for an environmental crisis that happened under Obama's watch, regarding a hurricane, I believe, that wasn't being treated thoroughly and promptly enough.

    The response by the liberal media? He got roasted by Jon Stewart on his program and was decried as being "hysterical" or "melodramatic" by other media outlets.

      Just be aware that he's married to a Republican consultant. It's all a game to these people

          It's a game to them. They consult both parties and are rich enough where it doesn't matter which side is in power, they benefit regardless. So all that's left is just the horse race

        That's fair.

        He seemed to "get it" more than most of the Democrats around him and wasn't afraid to speak his mind in the past, at least, despite being lambasted for his age.

        But eh, I don't like Republicans either so there's that; I live in a red state. It sucks.

    Anyone here over seven feet (2.13m) tall?

      Just a succession of increasingly large people telling each other to shut the fuck up

    Whenever I see the name Fetterman I hear the song Better Man by Pearl Jam chomsky-yes-honey
