Tigermike 3,053 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Carville Says Dems Should Dump Dean over “Rumsfeldian†IncompetenceBy Scott Shepard | Wednesday, November 15, 2006, 12:00 PM Democratic strategist James Carville says his party should dump Howard Dean as chairman of the Democratic Party because of incompetence. Carville, during coffee and rolls with political reporters today, said Democrats could have picked up as many as 50 House seats, instead of the nearly 30 they have so far. The reason they didn’t, he said, is the Democratic National Committee did not spend some $6 million it could have put into so-called “third tier†House races against vulnerable Republicans. Carville said the other Democratic campaign committees had borrowed to the hilt. He said he tried to meet with Dean to argue for additional spending for Democrats in the final days of the campaign, but Dean declined and gave no reason why. Asked by a reporter whether Dean should be dumped, Carville replied, “In a word, do I think? Yes.†He added, “I think he should be held accountable.†He added, “I would describe his leadership as Rumsfeldian in its competence.†Carville likened the Democratic takeover of Congress to the civil war battle at Gettysburg, which the Union army won but failed to pursue the Confederate army when it retreated. “We should have chased them down,†Carville said. There was no immediate response from Dean or the DNC. link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCTAU 3,345 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 A lot of smart-ass yankees died trying to chase down the southern boys. Not that Dean is that smart. Just that Carville should not use the war of northern agression as an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURaptor 1,126 Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Even the top Dem strategist can see that Dean is a liability. Hope they keep him. Dean is verifiably nuts, and it shows. He's already spouted off some insufferable rhetoric, and the Dems aren't even in power yet. America will see this s.o.b. for who he really is. All the better for the GOP , and the country.

But, as I have said in earlier posts, Rumsfeld was incompetent. So I don't agree with the newly-coined adjective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
