Carville says possibility of Fetterman switching parties is 'real threat' to Dems' Senate plans
Fox News ^ | April 17, 2026 | Alexander Hall

Posted on 04/18/2026 4:37:54 PM PDT by MinorityRepublican

"Politics War Room" James Carville and Al Hunt speculated on whether Sen. John Fetterman, D-Penn., may switch parties and throw Democrats’ Senate plans in disarray.

As Carville and Hunt took questions from listeners, one asked why Fetterman, who has been known for taking surprisingly bipartisan stances, doesn’t just go all the way and switch parties.

"I am not a big Fetterman fan," Carville said, declaring he thinks Fetterman is often motivated by wanting to see his name featured in newspapers. "He may switch, because they are going to correctly say if he wants to run again – I don’t know, but most politicians do – he has no chance in a Democratic primary."

No need to. He can be there when it counts. When he’s up in ‘28 he can make that call but it will depend on the 100 seat scorecard.

James hasn’t been this worried since LSU faced Bama

Hopefully someday John Fetterman will attend Carville's funeral. Haven't seen Carville's wife in 20 years. Did he kill her? Or was it a "Catholic" divorce?

I generally ceased clicking on anything Carville. He seems to want to remain relevant.

To me, he remains repugnant.

Fetterman: “who is this? why do you keep calling me and hanging up?”

Voice: “Look outside in the dark. See the two cars? We’re in them, watching you. And you’d better get a food taster. And watch for people behind you in crowds.”

Hey, Dems! This is why you don’t pass brain-damaged candidates off on the rest of the public. You thought nobody would notice the vote fraud that got him into office. Looks like you’ll have to Torricelli him now. Trump should do a photo op with Fetterman. It would be hilarious.

Wife, Mary Matalin: “Raised Methodist, Matalin converted to Catholicism in 2010.” “They are still together after 30 years.They have stated they will never get divorced and have a strong, loving, and functional relationship.”
——Business Jet Traveler, “A House Divided: James Carville and Mary Matalin.”

Sounds sick to me.

Like that other creepy monster who finally did leave Kellyanne Conway:

“George Conway is the prominent attorney and anti-Trump conservative who, after separating from his wife, senior Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway, announced a 2026 bid for Congress as a Democrat. He is a fierce critic of Donald Trump, having officially filed for divorce in 2023.”
—NBC News online.

He has never voted contrary to his party when it made a difference, not once. I don’t think he ever will.

“Fetterman” is a Tip O’Neill type Democrat.

Wake me up when Fetterman actually votes for any consequential GOP legislation.

Democrats are masters at voter fraud. But I think Fetterman’s election was legit. His whole campaign was brilliant.

And his opponent (Dr. Oz) couldn’t have run a worse campaign if he had tried.

She needed consoling after marrying that creature George.

Note the story of her change in looks.

She may have had cosmetic procedures, including a facelift, brow lift, upper/lower blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery), and facial fillers, resulting in a tighter, more refreshed look. Several surgeons noted a noticeable transformation in her cheeks and jawline.

Suspected Procedures: Plastic surgeons and observers suggested a combination of a facelift, brow lift, and neck lift for increased sharpness in the lower face.
Observations highlighted a reduction in eye bags, decreased sagging, and a “smoothed out” appearance, likely involving eyelid lifts, fat injections, or fillers for added cheek volume.
The discussions arose from her appearance during 2020 TV appearances, with many noting a “stunning” change in her look.
She has never publicly confirmed or denied undergoing any cosmetic procedures.

Isn’t that sweet?

Serpenthead paints Fetterman and a “real threat to Dems” when in fact, he admits Jimbo has no chance in a Dem primary, meaning Fetterman would only be resPONDing to a justified and accurate fear of experiencing all the knives of a Julius Caesar moment.
