James Carville Denies He’s Involved in K-E Campaign
“Insider News” – ISN, Vol 1.2
September 8, 2004 (Public Opinion Draft)

By R.E. - Beltway & Texas Republicans Against Bush-Cheney ’04, Inc

James Carville Comments on “Imus in the Morning” - 09.08.04:
1)...Denies He’s Part of or Involved in Kerry-Edwards Campaign
2)...Says U.S. has lost the Iraq War
3)...Defends Democratic Senator Zell Miller, if wasn’t his fault
-------
ISN KeyNote Intelligence Briefing: “The Iraq-Middle East Insurgents War - U.S. has Lost Control”


09.08.04 - 7:50 EST – This morning on “Imus in the Morning”, James Carville denied he is part of the Kerry-Edward campaign. Carville said he is nothing more than a concerned citizen with a strong opinion about the future of the Country, and not part of, or involved in, the Kerry-Edwards campaign. This was Carville’s response to Imus asking him if he had joined the Kerry campaign as reported in the media.

ISN COMMENTS: Carvel’s statement is nothing to worry about and is typical Carville spin. He wants to keep his media positions, particular GOP-bias CNN, so his statement is logic in this matter. It’s the old game of, consult behind the scenes to a campaign, deny you are involved, and then us the media to further your candiate’s platform. This is Carville’s role for now in the Kerry-Edwards campaign, and a great way for Carville to “play his hand” in our opinion.

Of interest, Carville's purpose to be on Imus was not political. He was there to promote his new children's book he wrote entitled "Lu and the Swamp Ghost", released September 1, 2004. ROFLOL!

More information here:

This is an “interesting” and radical new direction for Mr. Carville in his book authoring interests, to put it mildly. Here’s a list of his previous authored books: http://search.barnesandnoble.com/booksearch/results.asp?userid=pB5weq0AoA&ath=James+Carville

For “some strange reason” :-) …there was little discussion between he and Imus this morning on Carville’s new children’s book, but much discussion of politics. In fact, Imus stated he didn’t even know Carvel’s book was out, or he would have been sure “to read it to Wyatt (his son) last night”.

All I can say is, that I love how brillant Democrats work,…impressive - lol!

TO BE CONTINUED – The rest of Carvelle’s interview was EXCELLENT!

2)...Says U.S. has lost the Iraq War
3)...Defends Democratic Senator Zell Miller, if wasn’t his fault

We agreed with Carville on both points 2 and 3. Carvelle's Zell Miller slant was brillant...Just Perfect! Will post remainder of this "Insider News" late this afternoon - R.E.

1. How come Carville has to deny helping a campaign while
Buchanon is on 3 different networks for 2 decades and runs for President HIMSELF every 4?

2. Thanks for posting this
Begala also has denied being part of the campaign, probably for the same reason.

They both know what they're doing.

7. Also, when Imus yapped about the race being over because
of an 11 point lead, Carville said (and you could tell from his voice that it wasn't spin) that he is so much more hopeful this week than last and that in reality this is a 4-5 point race.
