Carville urges Kamala caution…
During a recent appearance on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Democratic Strategist James Carville made a plea for caution within the Democratic Party amid Kamala Harris’ rise to the top of the 2024 ticket; “it’s going to be a tough race,” Carville said.
“This has been a real change in mood in the party and around the country, but we got to be a little careful. There’s about ten percent too much triumphalism going on, and you know, it’s going to be a very difficult race,” Carville said during a Wednesday interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
“It’s going to be very close, and I understand that people are feeling a lot better, and they’re excited. But that excitement has got to be tempered with realism, and the realism is she has a tough campaign on, and as you say, she’s got several things she’s got to accomplish at the same time,” he cautioned.
“They’re having to put a campaign together right away. They were obviously thinking about this ahead of time, but they got to accomplish, between now and the convention, they got to accomplish what most campaigns have eight months to do,” Carville continued.
He warned that former President Trump had a lot of support behind him.
“We also got a locked-in and entrenched opponent who’s got a large part of the country behind him who are going to pull out — and they don’t care what’s true of what’s fair or anything else — and you got to be ready for that at every point. And all I’m saying to Democrats is, enjoy yourself, feel good, but it’s tough sledding ahead, and let’s get together and get this thing done,” Carville said.
