I am mostly impressed at the lack of ethics. Its not so much that Carville did the wrong thing. Its more that he doesn’t even know the right thing. Most thieves and murders know that they did wrong. Or a person who takes a bribe may be tempted by the money to do something he knows to be wrong. But Carville seems to not even know right from wrong here. In a way, its a delicous proof of the congenital ethical limitations. Its not that the Clintons have no ethincal backbone. Its more that they have no ethics.

Judging from what I have heard and read, Carville is just reacting to what he thinks and or has heard to be true.

From an outsider looking in, it does seem Richardson threw the clintons under the bus, as have a lot of her “supporters”.

They will side with whomever they think will be the winner come Nov. and I think that’s pretty crappy for anyone to do to another.

They have no ethics or loyalty. Look at any of the recent statements from the DNC or about the delegates and superdelegates. The entire focus of the Democrats is electability, who can best win in November and how to keep damage to a minimum. Any one of them would switch loyalty in a heartbeat if they though the other had a quarter-point lead in some shifting poll. The Democratic nominee is a product, nothing more. As long as they get a Democratic body into the White House, they don't give a rat's ass who it is.

Of course, every party counts electability and winning as a top criteria, because if you don't win, you don't get to wreck or save America, as the case may be. I'd like to think that the Republicans place more value on character and what is best for America first, then do their best to get that best person elected, but alas the Republicans too are marketing a product. They aren't concerned first about who would be best for America, they want the one who can keep them in power best by being attractive "across the aisle". Again, you gotta win to stay in power so they have a valid point, but still it's sad that marketing the product and winning seem to have eclipsed more important concerns.

I guess that's the world we live in now. May the best product win. I'm going to vote for the Republican product. It's better than the other brand, I hope.
