Carville is pissing me off

Even when Dems win, they still have to say loser shit like this from Carville:

Some big name Democrats want to oust DNC Chairman Howard Dean, arguing that his stubborn commitment to the 50-state strategy and his stinginess with funds for House races cost the Democrats several pickup opportunities.

The candidate being floated to replace Dean? Harold Ford.

Says James Carville, one of the anti-Deaniacs, "Suppose Harold Ford became chairman of the DNC? How much more money do you think we could raise? Just think of the difference it could make in one day. Now probably Harold Ford wants to stay in Tennessee. I just appointed myself his campaign manager."

Without Howard Dean insisting that Dems contest every race, James Carville would be looking at another business end of an electoral loss.

This is why I have such a love-hate relationship with the Democrats. The people who are insulated in DC (like Carville) have no fucking idea what's going on out in the real world.

And then there's Dean--who travels around the country listening to candidates and party chairs. Dean gets the responsibility for much of Tuesday's victory.

I dare James Carville to come out to Oregon and talk to us about challenging every race..and why it doesn't work. Especially given that the Dems just took back the Oregon House (for the first time in 16 years), won the Governorship and held the Oregon Senate. They did so by mirroring Dean's strategy.

Bring your bald Cajun ass here to the Pacific Northwest, Carville. I dare ya.
