You got that right!! Yet MSNBC (esp. Ari Melber,. hauls Carville out on a regular basis. He (Carville) was dead certain last fall about who would win... Less said about Axelrod the better.....
Axelrod rhetoric filled w/
anger & arrogance.Could
be a reason he wasn’t in
Obama 2nd presidency?
Carville hasn’t realized
it’s not 1993.But loves
to hear his voice. Why
Corporate News utilizes
them,rather questionable.
Both of them haven’t won an election in decades and while they were in power, completely slept through gerrymandering, court packing, voter disenfranchisement, Russian disinformation and the rise of right wing media. HARD PASS!
Right! What do they know! They are only responsible for 16 years of Dem Prez’s. Bring on the data heads who did such a great job losing to Trump twice.
💯
Their era is over. Along with Andrea Mitchell. Sorry, but I'm including Claire McCaskill - her observations and a dime, I have a dime. I am so tired of agitated regurgitation of what we know. How about: how to organize against the Coup d'etat?
Just asking
And that's why we're going to ignore their sorry a*&es and keep up all the resistance taking place and building... They will go down in history as losers and that's on them.
These guys get really shitty if they aren’t hired by the campaign. Biden didn’t hire Axelrod (actually called him a prick), so Axelrod bad mouthed him throughout. Same with the other Clintonistas.
Tell us why. And what should the democrats be doing now if waiting for the money showdown is not it. Writing to republicans doesn’t help. What do you want the democrats to do and when?
Axelrod's and the 10 House Dems who voted to censure @algreen.house.gov demonstrate the Democrats really are in "disarray." Abandon the good 'ol boy Dem establishment, @housedemocrats.bsky.social before voters abandon YOU. We need a tough resistance, not cowards.
Establishment Democrats would rather lose to Trump than see Bernie as POTUS or AOC on top of the Oversight Committee. This must change, or no real reform will ever pass.
That requires citizens who aren't sociopaths, career politicians or cynics to get involved. Take back the country. This is how ⬇️
That’s why I specified advisors. Not campaign staff.
A good size percentage of Americans were less than satisfied with the Obama presidency because he wasn’t progressive *enough.* We had those 44 days - but still 16 years later we’re fighting for basic human rights.
Anyway, that’s what I meant.
You keep thinking that, you can only be as progressive as the electorate allows and Obama read the room. All you have to do is look at the shellacking the Dems took 2010, had Obama been more progressive he would have lost in 2012, these are the facts. The Dems never recovered from the 2010 loss.
Given the extreme difficulty men in power often have in creating mentors and allowing younger people to take over the helm and lead, it may serve us well to elect more women. Women have a much easier time lifting others up, placing them in the limelight when it's time to do so.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to be disagreeable but you've offered nothing to back up your claims. So I'll rely on my decades of work experience and assert that what I learned was the exact opposite, particularly if the mentee is a man.
Also, women I know also stated that women do NOT support underlings.
As the saying goes: "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem." They should stop pontificating and make a contribution to democracy and the Democratic Party. They are taking up precious headspace with their judgments.
In regard to self-defeating actions, while reading this article, I wondered about how progressives who opposed Shapiro for VP, primarily because of his support for Israel, now feel about their actions.
As we experience the unfolding horrors of Trump 2.0, with untold horrors yet to come, it's obvious, IMO, that we would have had a far better chance of defeating Trump if Biden had followed Carville's January, 2023 advice--to stay with Biden's original plan to be a one-term transitional president.
What political tactics have been successful in countries that have beaten back fascism/authoritarianism? The old style political playbook is not cutting it.
Say what you will about Carville. He has something no current Dem strategists have. He’s ruthless as fuck. And the Dems need that now by the truckload.
Idk if it’s just those two. The political consultant class itself seems over hyped. Donna Brazile has never proven to be a genius nor has Rahm Emmanuel
I still enjoy Brazile on This Week ... but she was part of the group of political consultants/commutators that insisted Biden was ok. What did that get us?
So very true. Keep beating that drum. We need fresh faces and decent, open-eyed thought leaders. Bringing yesterday's strategies to the challenges of today and tomorrow has been a thorough-going disaster.

It’s like a retired librarian going back to their library and going on about how great the card catalog was. 🙄

Troll'n, troll'n, Troll'n keep tem doggies Troll'n Rawhide!
Again, you're funny and an idiot!

Biden: moderate ran on Bernie’s agenda.
Harris: tried to appeal to moderate republicans.
Which one won?
Also, women I know also stated that women do NOT support underlings.
And the second time is really unforgivable.
