James Carville told MSNBC Kamala Harris is making this bad choice
James Carville is still one of the most prominent voices in the Democrat operative class.
But Democrats won’t like what he has to say.
And James Carville told MSNBC Kamala Harris is making this bad choice.
James Carville says Kamala Harris is blowing it
It wasn’t so long ago that longtime Democrat strategist James Carville was confidently predicting victory.
On September 23, Carville told CNN that Vice President Kamala Harris was on the verge of delivering an Electoral College thrashing to former President Donald Trump.
“It’s close in the polls, but I’m not convinced that it’s gonna be close on election day,” Carville stated. “If there’s seven swing states, the least likely scenario is it breaks four-three.”
“I could be wrong, but it’s gonna break in one direction or the other,” Carville continued. “I really believe that. Most of the time, these elections do that. And I don’t like to predict elections. I would just say it just doesn’t feel like a race that Harris is gonna lose.”
Now Carville is singing a different tune.
Appearing on MSNBC, he all but pressed the panic button on Kamala’s campaign.
“You’re not in a reflective mood?” host Ari Melber asked.
“Not in a particularly reflective mood right now. I’m very, very concerned,” Carville replied.
Carville warned that Kamala was going to lose the rest of the week to the hurricane, which gave her less than three weeks to turn the election around.
“She doesn’t have a month left. We’ve got 26 days. Today is gone. You’re going to lose four to the hurricane. Just subtract that. We’re going to get blank — you’re not going to get much out for the next four days. And everything, kind of, shuts down the Saturday before the election, so you’re really probably under 20 days that you have to really get a message out,” Carville added.
He proposed the campaign alter its media strategy for a third time to do more press conferences and fewer interviews.
“They need to be sharp. They need to be aggressive. They need to stop answering questions and start asking questions. They’re doing all this and sitting down with 60 Minutes and sitting down with Colbert and sitting down — no matter what, if I come on your show, you will ask me the questions. If I have a press conference, I get to ask the questions,” Carville concluded.
Media panic pile-on
POLITICO’s left-wing columnist Jonathan Martin decided to throw his hat in the campaign manager ring and proposed Kamala spend the last three weeks of the campaign cosplaying as a rural conservative by dressing like a cowboy, acting like she’s at a football tailgate and pretending she’s the ideological heiress to President Ronald Reagan in an effort to win over moderates.
A Calif Democrat sends over the below, as addressed to @VP
⁰KDH: Shoot the Glock. Frack some oil. Go to the border with Lankford. Tell college kids your pronouns start with mudda and ends with ah. Eat ribs at a tailgate and decry the soft rules protecting QBs. Basically burn…— Jonathan Martin (@jmart) October 10, 2024
Martin wouldn’t be proposing these outlandish suggestions if Kamala Harris was ahead.
But the idea that the voters would buy a leftist from San Francisco with the most extreme left-wing voting record in the Senate and who served as the “Border Czar” who let in 10 million illegal aliens defies plausibility.
