I don't think Carville is particularly influential with Democrats these days. Guys like him and Paul Begala were bigger in the 1990s and early 2000s, but they're Clinton Centrists who only really resonate with older centrists. Even younger centrists aren't really going to know who they are.
Oh I know, he's and old campaigner just like some of the old politicians that are still around. Its got to be a hunger for Power and/or Money for someone in the mid 70's to want to run for President.
Probably my fav all time show...aside from the regulars, I particularly liked Floyd, Otis, The Darlings, and of course, Earnest T. Bass. And Andy's interaction with Opie is great...there's always a lesson to be learned with those episodes.
My favorite Andy Griffith movie, and it's really a no contest, is "No Time for Sergeants". I'd still laugh my ass off if I watched it today for the 20th time in my long history of watching that movie.
He was also endorsing Michael Bennet at the time. Given that Bennet got approximately zero votes, I'd say Carville had not a whole lot of influence. I like listening to Carville, although I wouldn't necessarily assume his political instincts are still keen. barfo
Im now thing Harris as I believe she's pretty tight with Obama. Im sure Barrack has given Joe his 2 cents worth.
"Post it" note is currently being vetted for VP. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/biden-amy-klobuchar-running-mate-vetting/
i am going to add another less discussed candidate for the position to my short list. susan rice. edit besides her credentials as national security advisor and us ambassador to the UN, she was on point in the ebola outbreak and was the individual responsible for establishing the directorate for global health security and biodefense, the office dismantled by the current administration that would have had the plan for and the response to the virus.
Yeah, I mentioned her as a good pick in another forum. Yes, Sly, there are other attractive forums and not just S2. Oh come on, here's a handkerchief. Now dry your eyes.
As far as making "age" an issue, we need to keep in mind that if Trump wins a second term he will end up being as old as Biden is now.
No, she offended the Bernie Sanders supporters and Biden can't lose their support. She also began to look weak coming down the stretch.
Biden will play no part in the selection of his prospective running mate, nor will it be anyone who can stomach being near him. It will be a woman who can be controlled, Harris or maybe Obama, as her hubby is starting to look like he's in trouble. Even he knows if he somehow won he'd be a showpiece and nothing more, until he dies soon after taking office. It's why he's doing everything he can to look senile. He's running to avoid prison, either buy getting back in power or by playing dementia.
i could be wrong but if he chooses EW, the republican governor gets to appoint her interm replacement till special election held 5-6 months out potentially delaying agenda till then depending on other senatorial races this fall. and as we saw this spring a lot can happen in 6 months
