“Ideologies aren’t all that important. What’s important is psychology.
"The Democratic constituency is just like a herd of cows. All you have to do
is lay out enough silage and they come running. That’s why I became an operative
working with Democrats. With Democrats all you have to do is make a lot of
noise, lay out the hay, and be ready to use the ole cattle prod in case a few
want to bolt the herd.
Eighty percent of the people who call themselves
Democrats don’t have a clue as to political reality.
What amazes me is that
you could take a group of people who are hard workers and convince them that
they should support social programs that were the exact opposite of their own
personal convictions. Put a little fear here and there and you can get people to
vote any way you want.
The voter is basically dumb and lazy. The reason I
became a Democratic operative instead of a Republican was because there were
more Democrats that didn’t have a clue than there were Republicans.
Truth is
relative. Truth is what you can make the voter believe is the truth. If you’re
smart enough, truth is what you make the voter think it is. That’s why I’m a
Democrat. I can make the Democratic voters think whatever I want them to.”

My question, which was totally inartful -- and that's because I am having a hard time putting this into words. I will try but may flub it up again. (FYI, my Daddy always called me Flubber all my life. Now I know why.)
My "question" was to be posed from Carville's personal standpoint. I mean, were I speaking to the guy -- and hopefully with a straight face, mind you -- I'd want to ask him, "Okay, Carville, I see what you're saying, but what kind of personal satisfaction, if any, are you getting out of doing your job strictly for such hollow reasons?"
I mean when, for instance, you and/or I stand up and defend a conservative ideal or speak our piece about a hot subejct, we are doing so from our hearts and when we drive home a point or two, we feel really good about ourselves. But what kind of emotional, personal satisfaction can that man be feeling if he doesn't have true, honest beliefs he's trying to pass on to others?
Again, inartfully stated but that's what I intended initially. I have to add that I found his comments to be totally off the wall of good taste and very insulting to the people he...

Again, inartfully stated but that's what I intended initially. I have to add that I found his comments to be totally off the wall of good taste and very insulting to the people he is supposed to be wooing. By the way, I didn't do any research to verify that's what he said. I sincerely hope he did, indeed, say it because I don't want to blast somebody for something they never said in the first place. But you know what? If somebody comes back with persuasive proof that he didn't say this, I will be the first to apologize for my comments. Not that anybody gives a rat's fanny about what I have to say, mind you, but it'll make me feel better about myself because I can't stand liars, even inadvertent liars, which is what I would be. Argh. I just hate these modern-day communications that contain misstatements of fact and outright fibs because I'm used to being able to trust what people tell me. Not anymore. Unfortunately, this old war horse is a little bit slow in catching on.
Oh, and FYI, I absolutely love your adaptation of Jimmy Stewart for your logo! One of my all-time heroes, mind you. And I loved his movies too!
I'm not sure what motivates a person to defend a party/ideology if that person doesn't believe in it. Could it be purely for monetary gain? He's good at his job, or at least he used to be, he helped build the Clinton machine. Perhaps he knows something very few know, that Party and ideology are not relevant when the game is fixed by the elite governing class. It's all a charade at that point, performance art, if you will - it's all about which Party can put on the best performance and who can control the theater.
Thanks for the compliments on my avatar - Jimmy is one of my favorite old school actors - and Mr. Smith also happens to be my real name, so it was an easy pick for me. ;-)
This is quite an indictment of the typical Democrat mindset, ignorance, pure and simple...
He also said Hill Bill might run in 2016. Talk about damaged goods.
He's just a delusional coon a$$ who had his 15 mintutes of fame in the 90's.
I keep thinking that Mary will shoot him and put him out of her misery.
It won't be long before someone puts out a contract on him.
Well, said, Mr. Carville.
