Many in the political media sphere are looking out in the distance at the 2012 elections with some level of ironic revulsion. The 2010 midterm elections fresh in mind and the 2008 presidential election being one of the longest campaign seasons in history, many are simply not ready for that level of intensity quite yet. And then there’s James Carville, who was nearly jumping out of his seat on CNN today at the prospect of Republican presidential candidates hitting the campaign trail– in Februrary 2011.

Carville was making his regular rounds on John King USA, discussing with host John King and Red State‘s Erick Erickson, today stopping by to chat about King’s exclusive interview with probably 2012 Republican candidate Newt Gingrich (Gingrich, under contract with Fox News, rarely speaks to other networks). Carville appeared excited to see Gingrich talking about the elections but, beyond Gingrich, just happy to see the campaigns so close on the horizon. “I hope he goes!” he noted enthusiastically about his possible run, “We’re just waiting on the word here.” Then he let himself daydream a little about the entire Republican landscape. “I hope John Bolton goes with him, you know, and Sarah Palin, and I’m all for it. It’s time for these guys to get out there and start campaigning.”

Later, describing Gingrich as a “very charming man” who is “itching to go” on the campaign trail, he reiterated his excitement: “This thing needs to get shaken up! We need to get these guys out on the road!” Carville also responded to Erickson’s description of Gingrich as a “brilliant ideas guy” with a compliment of sorts: “he is to ideas what the Pacific Ocean is to water.”

This level of political enthusiasm is, of course, incredibly healthy for the nation, but it just seems far too soon to be so ebullient about yet another election cycle. The panel discussion via CNN below:

Skeletor shows himself.

Perhaps Carville needs more hobbies than just being a shill.

Perhaps before hitting the re-election trail, the Dems should actually try to fix some of the pressing problems in the country. Ever since the “blame Bush” tactic expired, and the “blame Rush” and “blame Palin” excuses failed to catch on with reasonable people, they’ve been itching to get back to campaigning so they could stop worrying about the economy, the deficit, the wars, etc. I know, I know. Obama is more of a campaigner than leader. But it’s going to be hard to run on hopenchange for another term.

I was dropping someone off at LaGuardia, and I said that looks like Carville & Mary Matlin pulling up, and it was.
So as I passed Carville getting out of the car, I said aloud ” You drag a $10 bill through this airport, and you don’t know what you’ll find”. He started laughing, and took it in good spirit.
jo hoochie

I heard he is a really nice guy. Makes me wonder but I guess it’s true.

Carville’s act is old. He is out of touch and we are going to massive change next year.

Good. Your socks are really stinking.

A most interesting piece today speculating on the Republican vice presidential candidates. The “contest” there should be much more interesting. The presidential race appears to be shaping up as a dull competition among largely discredited and weary has beens.

Well it appears that they have discovered what your problem is.

I believe Gordo’s restaurant business failed mainly because he kept eating up all the merchandise.

I’m not sure why some men believe those “roomy” jump suits, particularly orange prison jump suits, make them look thinner. They simply appear to be enormous tangerines to me.
