I thought I'd check out James Carville's complaints about the 2010 Democratic campaign.
He's upset with their messaging, but he thinks his message stands up.
You know, the 40-years of Democratic dominance that's coming?
The one that doesn't look so likely after two years.
Carville still believes his analysis.
Both Carville and Greenberg, who jointly founded Democracy Corps, painted a rosier picture of Obama’s electoral future in 2012, mainly because of the country’s rapidly changing demographics.
Declining to pinpoint a Republican favorite, Carville said any GOP presidential candidate would be forced to “double-down on older whites” — a strategy that becomes less reliable each cycle.
“When you get into a presidential electorate, it decidedly favors Democrats, and every year it’s going to decidedly favor them more and more,” Carville said. “Demographics don’t do anything but get better for Democrats. Every election becomes less white.”
Two African-American Republican congressmen? A Latina governor in New Mexico? No difference, the minority vote is theirs.
The demographics will vote in Democratic lockstep - no matter what the economy does.
Keep thinking like that and there will be 40 years of dominance coming - for Republicans.
