During an appearance on MSNBC this week, Democratic strategist James Carville issued a warning to Democrats who are getting excited over having Kamala at the top of the ticket: “If we don’t win the election, we haven’t done anything.,” Carville said.

“I have to be the skunk at the garden party. This is too triumphalist, OK?” Carville said on MSNBC. “Everybody’s giddy. I look at the coverage and it’s great. If I had to write a play about what I think, it’d be entitled, ‘The Icepick Cometh,’ OK? Get ready, they’re coming. All right? And it’s good. Everybody should feel good and liberated and everything else. But if we don’t win the election, we haven’t done anything.

“This kind of giddy elation is not going to be very helpful much longer ’cause that’s not what we’re going to be faced with.”

“I think the Vice President, to put it in athletic terms, needs a really good cutman on the corner because she’s getting ready to get cut,” he said.

Carville also stressed caution when looking at polling.

“It’s still the same country. All right? It might be a different mood, and all I’m saying is good. Bang your helmets against the locker, it’s fine,” he said. “But still, when you go out there, you’re facing Alabama. Just get ready because these Republicans, you’re right, they got caught off guard, but they’re going to get their sea legs and we’re having to get a campaign, a whole campaign started.”
