That's the message from political operative James Carville, who asks those who have "had enough" of President Bush to donate to the Democratic National Committee in a new DNC television commercial airing Monday.

"Bush will raise $250 million to fund relentless attacks on our Democratic nominee -- he'll stop at nothing," Carville says. "With your help, I know we can win. So stand up, be counted and contribute today."

In a funny scene on K Street, Carville is ranting about his enemies and Mary Matalin recognizes the same old pattern, telling him to leave the office during working hours and go 'work out'.

I found Matalin's insight on Carville to be very interesting. Obviously, his ranting and anger are a psycholical problem that responds to exercise, positive endorphins, etc. He needs to be tranquilized, in effect.

Why he is a Dim hero for this is beyond me.

I have never heard of a major party running a national commercial just to ask for donations.

Yo Serpenthead! I gotcha donation - right HERE!

`Of all people, Carville should know that the wallets will stay closed until Hillary runs.

That is why they are progressives! "Only the little people's generosity can save them from Bushco".

They should DEMAND that people on the welfare dole do their 'fair share' in electing Democrats. (Not that current Republicans are far behind)

James, get it from Bubba. He has plenty of money.
