James Carville sounds the alarm as Sanders surges in primary: 'I'm scared to death' for Democratic Party
Fox News ^ | February 4 2020 | Joseph A. Wulfsohn

Posted on 02/04/2020 11:12:20 PM PST by knighthawk

Democratic strategist James Carville expressed his concerns as the Democratic primary race is officially underway, saying he's "scared to death" of the direction his party is going.

Appearing on MSNBC, Carville began by pointing to the success Democrats had during the 2018 midterm elections and stressed that it "matters" who the candidates are and what the party chooses to talk about.

"I'm 75 years old, why am I here doing this? Because I'm scared to death, that's why," Carville exclaimed. "Let's get relevant here ... all the Sanders people are taking pictures wishing Jeremy Corbyn the best. ... I don't want to go down that path."

CaatOwner is right.

Black men only went for hillary 78 percent. I know that’s HIGH but not as high as the 96 percent for black women.

I think black men will go maybe even 30 percent or a little more for Trump.

But for black women, the govt is their baby daddy.

It’s the only father in the house. It pays for the food and the rent and the utilities and free breakfast and lunch and now dinner for the kids at school (Yes, if they stay late enough they can get dinner)

So they’re voting 96 percent again for the dem.

But black dudes can help us carry three or four states with their 30 percent supports that might otherwise be a little tough to carry.

I would suggest one interesting scenario. Trump will have a billion dollars in his campaign chest by mid-summer....maybe going to 1.5 billion by the end of October (most all donated by us, the little guys).

If he took 500-million and attached it to district by district situation, paired up with particular GOP House potential folks, and selected ten districts in California (out of fifty districts in the US) to make a difference, then you’d see significant results.

An example. Say you picked Nancy’s district...the 12th District (central bay area of SF), and they laid out the homeless issue, the crap on the sidewalks, and the spiraling of Democratic leadership....he would influence the re-election of Pelosi. The district is made up of 33-percent Asians. So you pair the district up with a female GOP Asian, and you run the Trump advertisements with her.

Nancy tends to win her elections with almost no campaign money, and with 80-percent of the vote. I would suggest in this scenario...she’d have to go and spend some money, and she’d win but only in the 60-percent range. It’s not a victory for Trump, but it would force her to go out and spend weeks campaigning in the area, and defending the homeless image of the 12th District.

Carvill, you should be scared to death, but not because of Bernie. Bernie may be a dumb cluck, but he’s not a fake like the demonrat leadership is.

Snakehead lives, apparently.

Satan’s really taken care of him well.

All that speculation about the black vote assumes the black vote for Trump will actually be counted and reported.

In the big rat-infested cities, like Philthadelphia (where armed thugs guard the entrances to polling places), the reported numbers will be close to 100% rat, as always.

"President Trump might even carry California!"

California election officials will not let that happen. The actual votes don't matter.

You’re a disingenuous jackass, Carville.

You pretend to have a better alternative, but the arrogance and hatred you harbor refuses to yield to the obvious choice of conservatism.

Piss on you.

Carville likes his communism by the teaspoon, Bernobyl likes it by the tablespoon.

Regardless, we're blowing through trillions of new debt and running on: "it's the economy stupid!"

>> Bernie will be an epic disaster...

... to the Rat party as you described.

But he’s been quite successful in pulling back the veil the Rat party hides behind.

He’s delusional, he’s a hypocrite, but he has a vision that’s not dependent on the day’s political landscape — a classic characteristic that will attract many followers.

Trump will never carry California.

California would cast their vote for Hitler if he had a D by his name.

Socialism isn’t for the socialists. Every one of them live in glory and worship in the lap of luxury, while the commoners starve. It is a system that grants a promise of food in exchage for turning your neighbor into the enemy. “Socialism, ovens included at no extra charge”. #Heil Hitler.
Bernie getting the nom would allow endless ads sponsored by Hitler. Free has a cost and it looks like Auschwitz.

He won’t carry Cali, but fortunately Presidential elections are long decided before the first vote is tabulated there.

News Flash. Carville had about 10 seconds of sanity. Put it on a bronze plaque in George Nurri’s “Museum of the Strange Things and Alien Visits”

Check out the recent thread titled “Nessun Dorma” on YT.

If every voter saw it, the landslide would be even bigger!

Isn’t this the same guy whose book claimed the dems would rule for 40 years?

#9. Please don’t say “Let that sink in” when referring to Butty Boy as you call him. The image is horrifying.

He is not totally sane (his father was a hardcore Marxist); not very responsible since South Bend, Ind. went further down the crapper under his years of non-rule; and he is hardly responsible since he’s a Democrat. Want to trust a budget with him? Treaties with Red China and No. Korea?

No way Jose!
