Wild thought: Harris - Biden? Swap jobs? Joe can get his handicap back down to 6...

The man is really a genius. And he confirms it with a sense of humor.

Bernie would have the best shot.

Trump's main appeal to his base is that he is being targeted by a deep state and is the sole person who will take on the

corruption in Washington D.C.

Bernie has a legitimate ability to steal Trump's base from him because Bernie actually represents all anti-corruption political reform Trump uses as empty rhetoric. Bernie also does not show the negative consequences of his age like Biden does.

Bernie has also consistently been on the moral, legal side of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict so he would not suffer from the uncommitted vote from the democrats base.

Plus he singlehandedly out raises all other Democrats from small-dollar donors so his campaign "war chest" is plentiful.

Bernie should be the nominee!

Michelle Obama with Newsom as VP would be a surefire way to win - recent polling showed her as the only person who beats Trump decisively (50/39). This is a code red situation…how could she not at least be considering it? But assuming the former First Lady hasn’t changed her mind, I think we’ll all be able to get behind Harris.

I really like the idea of Gavin Newsom but California can’t put up 2 nominees on the floor. Another state would have to do it. Last Democratic governor to win was Bill Clinton (which is when James Carville became one of my favorite people)!

Dreaming a bit here but imagine if we could have someone like a Jon Tester and/or Gretchen Whitmer in the Oval office or as VP. The Dems need to strip themselves of all the baggage from the past (playing the race card, etc) and get back to a clear cut center left position. Whitmer/Tester is just the salt of the earth ticket that would get rid of the coastal elite control of the party.

That prediction didn’t fly too well, huh?

My sense is that with the headline candidates on both sides having challenges, that the second party (aka VP of the USofA CH) on the ticket needs to step up and demonstrate the balls, guts, street smarts, political instincts and appealing leadership skills that will calm concerns about the “what if” speculations

I really respect James, not too impressed by his pal Al Hunt. I try to listen to every podcast and it never fails one of you have to blame Biden for everything Trump is doing. Trump is a fucking Russian asset none of which is owned by Biden. People in media like you bashed Biden for months sowing doubt in his ability which wasn’t fair or truthful. His loss is on you and Al and every other msnbc etc pundit who failed to support the democrats

Where is live James Carville?

How about interviewing a brave Yale professor who taught JD Vance?

As the prof if he taught Vance the lopsided view of the Constitution?

If not then who????

James - I love you - but you are now part of the problem - there are only two options - continue with Joe Biden -or- if he decides to step aside -then Kamala Harris is the ONLY choice - if the Democrats choose anyone else then they lose the black vote - and that will give the elections to that maniac Trump - hopefully we all get together and support Biden - he may be old but he has so much knowledge that nobody else even comes close to - and Kamala is the backup in case anything happens to Joe - and another BIG issue is that it is not only Joe Biden, but his entire support staff that really has done an exceptional job - you lose Biden and you will lose them - I don't see Kamala and whoever as VP being a better choice - PLEASE help STOP the distractions and let's talk about the comparison - that will win the election
