Good job, James Carville. Way to respond to the event without sounding like a lunatic jackass nutjob.

Didn't realize we are now refering to Easter as "Judas Anniversary." Catchy.

If Richardson = Judas, that would make Hillary....

Dude, they totally broke up. Richardson even grew that mourning beard and was all like, "What? I'm moving on and so is my facial hair. Also: I only watched the Super Bowl with you because we made plans and I felt all bad and shit because like, you know, we had something good once, and I figured what the hell, I can at least watch a game with you after all we'd been through. You might recall that I didn't share my Chee-tos with you. I said I had a cold and didn't want to share the germs. I didn't have a cold, man. I was just bein cold, fool!"

haha that's a rad picture!

James Carville can eat it. That's exactly the kind of useless horseshit I bitch about when I talk about how Clinton's campaign team sucks. Hyperbolic much, James?

Maybe that's how he does it... Cajun style!

nice use of biblical reference without sounding like an ovary fearing freak!

@RyanB: fictional?

I feel like now Bill Clinton is expected to pull out a sword and whack off someone's ear in defense of Hillary when Richardson and his bunch come along to say they're going with Obama . . .

@hortense:
hahahahaha moving on and so is my facial hair oh man that is gold!

Oh, wah, JC. Wah. It's like you've never met Bill.

Anything having to do with the holy book leaves me confused.

Carville used to be occasionally insightful and somewhat amusing. Now he's just a consistently bitter old weirdo. But, I'm a little encouraged by the fact that he's getting so crazy that he's almost back to amusing. If only for his complete lack of insight.

@andBegorrah: He was referring to the announcement being on Holy Thursday actually.

@hortense: Whoo-hoo! Excuse me, convulsive laughter, one sec...

I have nothing to say about this really. However speaking of guys who wont stop calling my douchebag ex has just emailed me after I told him on no uncertain terms to FUCK OFF. How do you get it to stop???

I guess Carville wants to see the dems drag out the nomination process and leaving the door wide open for the Republicans. Perhaps that keeps his wife happy.

@cuteasabutton: Call him pathetic. I know that's really harsh, but if he's a total douchebag and you want him out of your life, it's the only way.

@cuteasabutton: Two words: hit man.

Mr. Carville,

Bitter much?

Love,

The Rest of the Country

@cuteasabutton: Stop replying completely. They'll get it after three to six months, unless they are total freaks like the guy who is still calling 1 year and 2 months after I last saw him...

@cuteasabutton: Six simple words: "I'm not gay, but I'll learn."

I think what Carville is trying to say is that we all need Jesus in our lives. And when I say Jesus... well, you know what I'm talkin' bout.

And Carville's married to Satan - so it all evens out in the end, right?

Ok, now if he is comparing Richardson to Judas, then Jesus would be his former employer, so that would be Bill. Making Obama, who he is now in cahoots with, the Roman government. And according to the DaVinci Code, that would make HRC Mary Magdaline. And Chelsea would have to go live in France or something.

@RyanB:

Interesting, right?

And to think, Obama was the one being accused of being "messianic" or the next "savior" type. Turns out Carville thinks it's HRC! Who knew?

And that is easily the least flattering picture I have ever seen of Bill Clinton, who used to be so handsome.

One man washed on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss...

Just watched "War Room" yesterday (the documentary about Clinton's '92 campaign). So sad to see that Carville's idealistic, fight-for-the-underdog spirit from 15 years ago has degenerated into such entitlement, cynicism and general crankiness.

@RosePetalPlace: I'm afraid that 8 years of Republican rule would make even the most idealistic person cranky.

I am leaning more towards Obama (or just writing myself in once again) but I would still bang Bill. Old guys try harder.

This kind of makes me giddy, mostly because I'm hoping for an Obama/Richardson ticket. One step closer ...

@Leiakat: Oof, four years of Catholic school and I'm still doomed. Well damn.

He can endorse whoever the fuck he wants to win. That's why it's called an endorsement. It's his opinion of who he believes would be the best president. And everybody else can decide who the hell they want to vote for.

@hortense: That's the best comment of the day, IMO.

@badmutha: Word. It's just ironic because in this race Obama represents many of the same traits -- youth, hope, change, etc. -- that made Bill Clinton so appealing to Carville and his lot (not to mention the majority of the electorate) in '92.

@solidbrassfasteners: I love Richardson. But this would mean that Lorne Micheals better start kissing Horatio Sanz's butt or fast tracking casting all over the US. I for one would be excited to have some color added to the cast.

@RyanB: Eww I think I just threw up in my mouth a little on that one.

Aaaalso... Bill Richardson called the Clinton campaign to tell them about his decision to endorse Obama before he announced it publicly. Because he's a stand-up kinda guy. I like him a lot, and I think his reason for not endorsing Hillary (he basically said he's opposed to a Bush-Clinton-Bush-Clinton 28-year block) is reasonable.

People should watch "Our Brand is Crisis", is a shocking documentary about Carville's political marketing company causing problems in Bolivia.
I am hoping for Richardson as VP!

Richardson's reply to the Judas comment (from CNN):

"Richardson was asked Sunday about James Carville's comment that Richardson's Obama endorsement "came right around the anniversary of the day when Judas sold out for 30 pieces of silver." Carville is an adviser to Clinton's presidential campaign and a CNN political analyst.

"Well, I'm not going to get in the gutter like that," Richardson said. "And you know, that's typical of many of the people around Sen. Clinton. They think they have a sense of entitlement to the presidency.""

[www.cnn.com]

I've also wanted an Obama/Richardson ticket for a long while now too. I think that would be just too cool! :)

@sequined: Sorry, but I don't buy that's his real reason. (Otherwise why wouldn't he have come out and endorsed Obama back when it would have mattered - Nevada). I think he wants to be VP and decided that Obama was a better bet than Hillary at this point. Nothing wrong with that - just politics.

see also.

Dear I Used to Respect You Bill Richardson, Say what you will about the Clinton's, but to quote to wonderful Molly Ivins, "You Gotta Dance With Them What Brung You." Yes, this is politics, but you are what we refer to in NY as a "rat fink".

If Hillary gets elected, what wil Bill's title be? First Lady? First Gentleman? What?
