CNN

Let's be clear on the facts, Hillary won by a small margin in New Mexico, as she did in most other states that she won. Contrastly, Obama crushes her in the states that he wins. Barack Obama won the most delegates in Texas.

Anyone who believes Bill Richardson is somehow wrong here, needs to really take a good long look at themselves. If you find yourself suddenly hating someone as amazing as Bill Richardson, the problem is with you, not him.

Carville, used to be brilliant; he has turned into an unstable sociopath.

Bill Richardson is no Judas, he is his own man and the Clintons couldn't pursuade him to see things through their distorted eyes. The Clintons apparently did earn his loyalty. They have only themselves to blame, but I won't hold my breath waiting for them to accept the blame for anything.

As a Christian, I am insulted that "Hateful Hillary" was even remotely compared to Jesus. I not only think Carville should apologize to Bill Richardson he should apologize to all Christians. This is worst than anything Pastor Wright said.

Hillary said that she was under sniper fire on her Bosnia trip, the reporters grilled her on it and she stood her ground and said I was under fire. Someone who said he was there with her backed her statement and now I read that her campaign manager said that she misspoke. What a liar? Anybody want to comment on this lie??? No Obama attacks just answer the question, Did she lie?

Carville: "I doubt if Governor Richardson and I will be terribly close in the future"

Richardson: "So?"

Bill Richardson did betray Hillary.
He betrayed her because His state, NM, voted for Hillary and wants her to win more each day.
So not to follow the will of his state is unforgivable.

Carville, are you concerned about losing your touch?

What did you say happened in Charleston, Wva when President Clinton didn't get it- America did not realy like his wife? He thought it was the hair style if I recall the story you told on The Situation Room one day.
Question- What came first The Clintons offering Senator Obama the Vice Presidency or the Dr. Wright's tapes?

So in other words, he didn't do what you wanted him to? How about this novel idea....MAYBE just maybe he picked the candidate he thought would be best for the country going forward. How about that!

And the implication that governors and people in power pick a candidate based on what is owed them for the past and not what is best for the country is very scary!

I've respected Carville's opinions in the past because his opinions seemed considered and he showed a reasonable amount of expertise at what he was talking about. But these comments show him to be a small man whose loyalty to the Clintons has clouded his judgement as to what he should say in public about a figure he might in future have to consider in his capacity as commentator. Just as Halperin's comments about how Edwards described Obama showed Halperin to be a dirty-mouthed flunky and a man of low down, alley-like character whose commentary ought to be taken with a grain of sand, these comments by Carville will forever cause one to wonder whether his future commentary is tinged with Clinton-love and skewed by the Clinton point of view. Any comments he makes about the Obama or McCain campaigns from now on ought to be held suspect as being presented by a Clinton surrogate.

Carville is a great example of everything that's wrong with politics. I don't think that Obama is a saint in this regard, but everything I've learned about him tells me he'll be better. That's why I support him.

What a stupid comparison. Richardson made the RIGHTEOUS decision. GO BARACK OBAMA!!!

"How typical of the Clinton campaign to compare her to Jesus."

Haha, Jim F. Love your comment.

Are we honestly debating this guy's comments? Is he really saying that someone should endorse a person b/c they're a friend, not b/c they believe in their message? Its now bad to side with a person who you think will lead the country in a new direction rather than someone you previously worked with?

I say, way to go Governor Richardson! I commend you for going w/ your heart and head, rather than the "loyalty factor." If everyone took sides based on friendship, we'd end up with a dictator. Thankfully someone has enough brains in Washington to stand up for what they believe this country needs.

Right on! Bravo!

Richardson betrayed himself and his contituency in New Mexico since he didn't follow the advice he gave to other politicians in February and support the candidate that their respective state prefered in the primaries-for New Mexico it was Hillary Clinton.

OMG

Hillary just makes me sick !

Clinton compared to Jesus, man that is a good one, bad comparison, even if she acts like a man doesn't mean that she is Jesus, that is nothing but a bunch of crap!

Clinton is more like the brother of satan.

James Carville, Bravo! Richardson's credibility with my friends and family is no longer there. He turned out to be a very dishonest man. I hope you find Obamas tortillas better that ours, cabron. Nicolasa

Lets not be too hard on Sen. Obama and Gov. Richardson...

They are what they are.

JANUS & JUDAS!

Janus – The God of Two-Faces.

Judas – The man that sold-out "the savior" for 30 pieces of gold.

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the JANUS & JUDAS show!

First, Gov Richardson does not represent whole Latino community, as some people or Sen Obama may think. Gov Richardson should be ashamed of making a statement that he is "hurt" by taking side of Sen Obama. C'mon man, this life is precious, enjoy it, only morons hurt themselves.

I keep hearing that Obama sat in his church for 20 years and listened to his paster rant on about white people and the short-comings of the US government. Are we to believe that the Rev. Wright delivered controversial sermons every Sunday? This guy had a 30 year career and the Clinton camp only came up with a 30 second string of sound bites? I'm inclined to believe that the comments that we've heard from the Rev on those sound bites were more of an exception than the norm. Obama said he's never heard any of the questionable sermons - I'm inclined to believe him. With a 30 year career the media should have been able to make a movie, not a 30 sec sound bite. Obama admitted to hearing the occasional controversial statement from his pastor, but who hasn't.

Make no mistake, this whole thing is all about politics and its all a bunch of nonsense. They are playing on fears and racial prejudices. If it was two white candidates and a white pastor, do you really think that this would even be an issue. "Give me a break". Look at the pastors that McCain have sort endorsements from. Why haven't the media honed in on that story? It's all about fear and race bating people. If Obama supporters let this nonsense make you second guess your support for Obama, you have fallen for the farce. Don't let them make a fool out of you.

Rev. Otis Moss III talked about "lynching" on Easter Sunday.

Where is Al Sharpton?? Jesse Jackson???

I am sure they are just OUTRAGED about these comments!

of course he's like judas iscariot, no question about that. what kind of a person who has the stomach to do that to a personal friend? only the likes of richardson and omahahahaha!!!!!!! and then he'll say that he's still a friend of the clintons. who cares about you now ? nobody. look at kennedy endorsement, did it make obama wins in in his state? even with that swiftboat senator's endorsement didn't help obama.

go carville go , let's rock the boat baby

I know that this is just politics but loyalty is a trait that should be prized.
As a former resident of New Mexico I must say that Richardson is a disappointment.

And somebody please tell him to lose the beard.
He looks like the south end of a north bound cat.

Good for Richardson to come out and say its typical to hear things like this around and from the Clinton camp...Also to say that the Clinton regime feels ENTITLED TO THE PRESIDENCY.

Since Carville likes comparing people, then Carvill you are a skinhead because you sport a shaved head.

calm down up there in Canada. Comparing Richardson to Judas is close enough to promoting American monarchy, no need to compare Hillary to Jesus. Jesus!?!?!? Hillary?!?!?! Stay in Canada if that's the way you feel. That kind of analysis makes reverend wright look like the Pope. Let's just hope Jesus was nothing like Hillary.

Richardson better follow the New Mexico vote- it went to Hillary.

He will damage his own untarnished reputation by aligning himself with Obama.

Obama is a wolf in sheep's clothing and will destroy everything just to win what he believes he is entitled to.

Count all the votes and give Hillary the votes she won and then this absurd play will be over.

Why is CNN even giving this story the time of day? He is getting exactly what he wants, attention. I mean was I the only one that watched him on the Situation Room? He couldn't even put a cohrent thought together!!

To the Obama Supporters:

So have you seen what your hard earned $600 purchased at Tiffany's???

Michelle "Mean American" Obama will probably "Thank You" for your donations soon! LOL!!

Anyone that refuses to recognize Hillary's entitlement to the Presidency should be punished... maybe even sent to Gitmo!

Hillary '08 -> Jeb Bush '16 -> Chelsea Clinton '24 -> Jenna Bush -> '32

Support your monarchy people!

Don't Latino's want to know what type of church Hillary belongs to?
If anyone bothers to find out we will see how far loyalties go.
Google Hillary and the fellowship. Don't be mislead!!!

I didn't know endorsements were for a particular person, I thought they were for whom the person deems best to move this country forward. He owes nothing to the Clinton's, this is business; not personal. This is what's wrong with politics. This is why Bush and the Clintons feel they own America. This is why gas prices are so high because of this type of politics.

Since when is trying to do the "Right Thing", rather than the "Political Thing" make someone a Judas? I offer praise to the Governor for making a very difficult decision!

Tim @5:36...James never called Hillary Jesus. He called Richardson a Judas...(traitor, 2-faced, opportunist) and James Carville is right on about that characterization! We all know what being a Judas is. There is no stretching his statements to including a Hillary/Jesus ascription, and for JC's sake, can we separate church and state from this election process? I'm sick of it!

I suppose Bill Richardson's decision to endorse Obama is controlled by Richardson. My problem is the way Richardson played Hillary's voters into believing that he was part of the team. I hope he did not promise Obama a bed of roses(our votes) because right now, Richardson is on his own-solo.. Richardson is who he is because of us, the voters and the big push given by the Clintons. We, like the Clintons did not want you to be indebted for life, honesty would have been sufficient

What ever Obama offered to this guy, he needs to know that he has lost the respect and admiration from a lot of Latinos nation wide. VAYA CON DIOS, Sr. Richardson. by Meneconn

Carville was over the top, as usual –and correct, as usual.

Bill Richardson did sell out for self interest over loyalty. Now that Bill Richardson has decided on his candidate, he now wants to close the door on further dialogue.

Bill forgot the first rule of politics: yu never forget who first brought you to the dance.

Carville comment sucked. That is gutter tactics. Not to mention that even when Hillary quoted her experience in foreign policy that was just a comment too. The Clinton campaign started throwing mud since 2007 and I am tired of it. I voted for her in the primaries thinking she was honesty and true blue Senator. After careful consideration and observation her campaign tactics....Hillary you don't play fair. I am not voting for you at all. Your honesty went out the window with me after your qualifications were posted...after making nasty remarks about your opponent. You don't realize that both of you are in the same party. Democrats work together despite racial barriers you have not embrace the nation as a whole. You only embrace those who are like you. And now that your campaign advisor has said these negative things about Richardson whom is the 1st Mexican American Gov. the hispanic communities are looking too. With that being said you might lose their voting support too after your advisor remarks.

Bill Richardson had a very difficult choice..
BUT
HILLARY CLINTON IS THE ONE AND ONLY HOPE DEMOCRATS HAVE AND I HOPE THAT DEMOCRATS UNDERSTAND THIS !!!!!!!!!!

ITS UP TO PENNSYLVANIA AND OTHER REMAINING STATES TO SHOW THE WAY …………………………..

HILLARY CLINTON , PRESIDENT OF UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 08

You Obama people are hilarious. You're always saying Hilary will do anything to win.. and this is a bad thing? You think Barack "Typical White Person" Obama isn't trying to win? Give me a break. The only person I've seen waltz into the White House is the guy we got in there right now.

Kudos to James Carville!
Calling a spade a spade is called honesty.

Good for James.

people have been comminting on the other blogs about how "hateful" the Clinton supporters have become. I believe we Clinton supporters have become more angry. For months we have been subjected to Obama supporters who have been extremely hateful and untruthful about Hillary and Bill Clinton. We have been bombarded with Obama loving media, nasty bloggers, and people using sexism to discredit our choice. So yes, we are mad. We are fed up with the Obama people, the media and the Clinton haters who spew falsehoods with no fact.

So good for James for standing by his words. Truth is, Richardson is out for himself. He would have been no where with Bill Clinton and his loyality is misplaced. This reminds me of the superdelegates that have been forced to switch to Obama, while some have kept their loyailty to Clinton. Actually I am glad Bill backed Obama. Ever since he could not decide if being gay was a choice or a decision and looked totally lost in that debate I had little respect for his opinion anyway.

Thank God James stood by his words. And before you guys start, he made it clear that Clinton was NOT INVOLVED.

Carville is so obvious, he doesn't realize that no one takes his comments seriously. Carville's commentary throughout has been basically worthless because of his all too obvious bias. He's a smart man, but not as smart as he thinks.

If the shoe fits...

Well said, Carville.

This chap Jack Cafferty – is he obsessed with Hillary ! He talks nothing other than Hillary – this and Hillary that – He must be either obsessed or having a bird brain – incapable or limited in his ability to discuss any other subject with intelligence – he is a disgrace to a award winning team!

Go James Carville! Lets see what Richardson's 30 pieces of silver buy him!

Tim, As always, you got it wrong!!

The Clinton camp does nott care about the American people, they are only worried about Hillary getting the nomination.

Hillary supporters crack me up on these message boards.

i agree, billary is judas, the democratic party and the people of america have given them so much: love, respect, nomination, presidency and white house for good 8 years and look what they do. divide the party, bite people in their back and make sure this country and the people go through 8 more bush years. they are really judas!

By comparing Richardson to Judas, James Carville is implicitly comparing the Clintons to Jesus. Both his actual statement and the implication are ridiculous, and frankly, they are kind of offensive because they make a mockery of the Easter holiday and the real meaning behind it. Jesus went through suffering that is unimaginable to ordinary people like us. But no one is going to crucify Hillary now that Richardson has endorsed Obama. So, no, I do not see Richardson's endorsement as a betrayal of Hillary and Bill, and I certainly don't see the Clintons as being anything close to Christ-like, in terms of either their virtue, or the sacrifice and pain that they are suffering as a result of this supposed "betrayal". This is melodrama from Carville and any Clinton supporters who agree with him on this subject. Perhaps they are trying to get sympathy votes.

I have the utmost respect for James Carville and usually agree with his opinions. This time James hit the nail squarely on the head. I DID like Gov Richardson, however he has proven what he is – a Judas is a Judas is a Judas.

what ???????? so Hillary is Jesus now!!!! ha ha ha ha ha!!

the Clinton camp are really pathetich they just expect the Obama camp to keep silent and accept all the lies that they are spreading.

Carville's spiteful remark for which he is unapologetic says a lot about the kind of people with whom Clinton surrounds herself. Not the kind of leader I want!

Someone should inform Mr. Carville that it is not Bill Clinton that is running for the nomination. I know it gets confusing some times...I think Mr. Richardson did a very brave thing to endorsing the person he feels is the best person for the job even if he is not the guy he watched this year's Super Bowl with. Mr. Carville comments on your show today opened my eyes to what the Obama's campaign have been saying for months now the need to get rid of this type of politics in Washington where friends vote for friends and their policies right or wrong.

Typical Carville crudeness. Was Richardson considered disloyal for opposing Hillary in the primaries? That should have given the Clintons some indication of where he stood. If a friend of the family won't cast his political lot on your presidency, then that should tell us something about Hillary.

Richardson's endorsement only helped himself for whatever self-serving position he thinks he is going to get.

James Carville has no reason to apologize. It is what it is.

James Carville should be ashamed of himself. What a joke this man is. Pothetic is a word that comes to mind when describing this guy.

James Carville is waste of flesh, what a pathetic man to even try and compare Richardson to judas, as if the Clintons are any type of Jesus Idol's...not even close..Hillary needs to hang it up, and give Obama her support so we can focus on defeating McCain.

Democrat 08

Just more CRAP – while the Republicans snicker.

Children, children... can we please stop throwing mud at each other?

Clintons' camp keeps saying, "Bad Obama! bad Obama! He said he wasn't going to run a nasty blah blah campaign blah blah." But, ya know... lol...I don't mean to compare the Democratic race to a pigpen but... if you're in a pigpen and can't get out – and the pig(s) just keep slinging mud, at some point you're going to fight back. And if mud's all ya got to fight with.... It's all well and noble to say, "I shall not lower myself but, hey.... "

seriously, I sure wish all these "top supporters, aides, religious gung-ho postering people would just...um.. shut up.

I made the same comment to a friend on Friday morning, the day that Bill Richardson betrayed the Clinton's. Sort of scary that James Carville and I were thinking along the same lines...but, if the two of us were thinking it...how many more? NC will go Hillary Clinton...just wait and see!

There seems to be a pattern....nearly everyone who worked for the Clintons when they were in the White House have left them....that certainly says something about the kind of people they are: their own people have no faith in them. Hillary: You are destroying the Democratic Party. The party that was going to rescue the country from President Bush has now become the laughing-stock of the nation. Who in this country would trust a party that's so unorganized and fighting ITSELF with the highest office?!? The Republicans are just sitting back and waiting for January 20th, 2009 when McCain will be sworn in...because he WILL be the next President of the United States if this bickering continues to the convention. Hillary, if you really care about your party and want it to win, then you need a SERIOUS reality check. You need to understand that there is no possible way you can win the nomination. You are acting EXACTLY like President Bush: You're on another planet where facts, logic and reason do not exist.

This is part of the problem... Politics should not play a role in who gets chosen for the nomination? Richardson chose not because of his friendship, but based on his conscience and who he real will bring about real change. This is not to say Hillary can't bring about change (considering our current situation). I don't have the political experience neither of these candidates; however I'm confident I myself can bring about change in this country. True, Bill Clinton did launch Richardson's career and I sure he is grateful for the upper hand. Richardson should be commended for going against what the norm and doing what he feels is the right thing to do by endorsing Obama. It's hard to find people like that in this world. I APPLAUD YOU GOV. RICHARDSON....

I think Carville should be dismissed from CNN. Obviously, he is going to come on the different programs and offer one view: Hillary's. ANYONE that does not tow the Clinton obedience line will come under fire for thinking for themselves.

Richardson is a Judas, and I'm glad Carville pointed it out. As a Latina, I was shocked at his betrayal! That's terrible of him. I hope people boo him everywhere he goes. Shame on Richardson. Good for you Carville, for saying what you mean, and standing by your word. No apologies needed – except by Bill Richardson himself for disgracing our Latino community!

Hillary 2008! People draw toward those who have been betrayed by their inner circle. Shame on Richardson!

Can't stand the Clintons/hate politics, but love James Carville because he says something, doesn't waiver after saying it and does not use the "lying out"...I was taken out of context!!!

I vote for Jim Carville, but only if he does not put the Clintons anywhere near the White House!

i agreed with you 100 procent: BILL RICHARDSON IS SELLING HIMSELF

A pathetic, uncouthed gutter politician. What a warped rationale!

If James Carville is comparing Bill Richardson's decision to back Barack Obama to the betrayal of Jesus by Judas, is he placing Hillary in the same status as Jesus? The Clinton compain is sounding more the Rush Limbaugh show. Her compain is very disappointing to a long time advocate of President Clinton and the Democratic Party.

Hoping for Obama in Michigan!!

Good for you, Mr. Carville! Tell it like it is and stick to your guns.
And while HRC is out giving an address on the housing crisis and the sinking economy, all CNN can do is report on Obama taking a vacation??? It's great that he gets to lie on the beach IN THE MIDDLE OF A CAMPAIGN, when most Americans can't afford time off, and many are losing their homes or can't pay for heat in the winter!
What a crock...I see where his priorities are. Or is this just another scheme to distance himself from anything his campaign does/says, so that he can claim "I wasn't there" (even though we know it's a lie)? And if he become POTUS, will he also take a vacation in the middle of a crisis to rest and recoup from a stressful time?? PUH-LEEZ.
Politics as usual. Count me out in November if he is on the ticket.

Isn't it amazing how Mr. Carvel thinks that the race for the highest office of the land is a game of tag. He is playing a game with this nation's biggest decision. Bill Richardson was absolutely correct that the Clinton campaign feels entitled and for this they are careless, ruthless and demeaning. While the Obama campaign is constantly defending itself the Clinton campaign makes up stories and lied outright to the American people.

She lied about Bosnia. She allows her campaign to spew gutter economics. She kept quiet on Wright because she knew he isn't this monester that the media sound bites claim him to be...she should know he was invited to her husbands whitehouse. Her campaign is run by lobbyist and polsters.

The thing that outraged me most is their denial that Richardsons endorsement meant something now that Texas was over. That was a racist demeaning comment that meant he was only good to thing for the hispanic vote. This is one latina that will never vote for Clinton and I think other latinos should not be taken in.

Puerto Rico say no to Clinton.

Carville is a sore loser who sees his ship sinking and there is nothing he can do to stop it. I like James normally but this comparison to Judas is very stupid and divisive to the Democratic party and I think people like him will continue to spit out this poison until Hillary throws in the towel. Hopefully she will do this soon......

Oh goodness Richardson couldn't endorse before TX – he had to wait and see who might be in a position to offer him something again . . . he's just part of whatever 'club' he thinks will offer him more . . . isn't this totally transparent!

Carville made this statement last Friday; how many news cycles ago was that? CNN and Wolf Blitzer must be desperate for news if they are still pushing this story

Oviously James Carville only stated the truth the way it see it, only he worded it better than i would have! he is a Judas.

Hilary 08

Does the comparison mean that Carville equates Clinton with Jesus? And if Richardson is offered a post (VP would be good), so what? Does anyone with half a mind think that had he opted to endorse the Clinton campaign that he wouldn't be involved there, too?

Get a clue. Richardson is a viable person for many positions, for either Obama or Clinton... of course, VP is already taken by Bill on the Clinton side, so....

How many here think that Bill will be Hillary's VP?

Things are getting interesting in the Clinton camp. They have given the order, release the hounds!! Carville is uncaged.

There are many of us who feel that Obama is dangerous. I do not trust him. I am for Hillary Clinton, and have always been. I never felt Obama was presidential material and still don't. In fact, I am very concerned about him. I didn't know how he was at the start, because he said a lot but never said anything. Now things are coming out and it is very scary. Things he says spook me. Wake up people, our country and our democracy as we know it could be very shortlived.

So, Sen. Obama is enjoying three days of Easter vacation with his young family! Is this a crime? Where was Sen. Clinton, Friday Saturday and Sunday?

Just because he is taking a mini vacation like everyone else, does not mean that he did not attend Easter Sermons!

Get a life folks. Try to be a little less obvious.

"On Monday, Carville said he hadn't spoken with Hillary Clinton about Richardson's endorsement, but that he was outraged by the development, given the New Mexico governor's history with both the New York senator and her husband, former President Bill Clinton."

Yes, because people are not allowed to have their own ideas, only Hillary's ideas.

"But Carville, a CNN commentator, was unapologetic, telling CNN he knew the impact his words would have. "I doubt if Governor Richardson and I will be terribly close in the future," he said, but "I've had my say….I got one in the wheelhouse and I tagged him.""

Hmm. we want this guy in the whitehouse? Worse than Karl Rove?

Hmm.. How does CNN consider itself independent if they have a Clinton Campaign Staffer as a commentator?

CNN = Clinton News Network

Bill Richardson is a small man and, as an endorsement, small potatoes. Perhaps people don't remember his numbers in the primaries...I think he might have topped 2% at one time.

However he'd better pray to his lucky stars the democratic nominee isn't Hillary. Hope whatever Obama paid (or promised to pay) is worth it.

"Judas" doesn't begin to cover it.

Mr. Carville's comments fall in to category "constipation of the mind and diarrhea of the mouth". He was way out of reason in his remarks, but having watched him on various programs – it so like him.

Good for Carville. He is correct, of course, and I'm glad he's not backing down.

Carville has shown the ignorance I always thought he had. No wonder Hillary Clinton thinks she people owe her the White House. Ignorance runs rampant in her campaign. Remember her Duck and Cover story......How could anyone trust her to tell the truth?????

Oh Carville, I wounder what you would have called him if Hillary had gotten the endorsement. Some in her camp said that his endorsement carried no weight, so why the fury from Carville? I have always followed this Carville on CNN and for the first time, he was lost for words while on with Wolf. I think deep down he is sorry about it but does not have the B!!! to say sorry.

Judas-like thought: Richardson could see being rewarded with the Vice Presidency if Obama wins.

Carville is 100% right, Richardson is Judas. Richardson is not worried about his own state, he will have a job with Obama if he is elected.

Way to go James! call it like you see and devil take the hindmost! I think Richardson is a skunk to backstab the ones who were loyal to him. He is an opportunist just like Obama they deserve each other and Rev Wrong. They will not win in Nov because they are a joke and working people of this country demand patriotism in thier president, they will accept no less. Obama's hidden agenda can not stay hidden now we have seen his friends and mentors in action.

I think Bill Richardson is not just a stand up guy but a fearless leader.The other politicians are running to be leaders but they won't make a move until they can see what everyone else is going to do. I thought Bill and Barack made the real perfect ticket months ago. Where do these reporters get there information. I am a 34 year old wife, mom, christian, and my household income is 100,000. Out of those categories a lot of my peers feel the same. He is not a Judas because he made a choice.How long would this man be in their debt this sounds like a new millennium ownership.That is saying once you become a politcal leader you no longer have a choice. We the people realize at some point our leaders do not represent us do to owing the big man their soul.

Oh Carville, I wounder what you would have called him if Hillary had gotten the endorsement. Some in her camp said that his endorsement carried no weight, so why the fury from Carville. I have always followed this Carville on CNN and for the first time, he was lost for words while on with Wolf.

There is no doubt, Richardson's endorsement was a sell out/ I think if Richardson ever had any hope of winning a national election it is over with. This sure tells us what kind of person he is. Obama is to smart to put him in as vp. No one would trust him. I agree fully with Carvil,

I applaud James for saying what most of us who support Hillary think about Richardson's endorsement. So much for loyalty!

You go James Carville, I was taught Loyalty from the time i was a small child. What Gov. Richardson did was disgraceful and Obama will not longer get any support from this house. We feel that both Obama and Richardson cannot be trusted. What a disgrace.

I saw the interview...spit was flying everywhere, somebody get Wolf a hanky. I see this race is going nowhere but down...I mean the Clintons' really don't have anything to lose, except for the democratic nomination

James Carville said the truth.richarson should nat have taken sides.I admire carville for his honesty.

Interesting, the 'betrayal' is of the Clintons, not the party

I agree with Carville... Richardson got his career start with the Clinton's and now backstabs her as soon as he sees a opening for a cabinet spot or VP with Obama.

What a joke.

If Richardson wants to openly support a closet racist let him. I will not vote for Obama now.

Mr. Carville do you really have an idea what you said? You compared the Clintons to Christ and as a Christian I am very offended. My Lord and Savior lost His life in large part because of the Judas' betrayal. Yet you have reduced His sacrifice to that of one person excising their right to support a political candidate. Shame of you. I do not understand how you could equate these two situations I wonder if God understands?

As a citizen of New Mexico and long time voter for Bill Richardson – it makes me angry that Mr. Richardson cared nothing about the majority of voters in his state. We voted for Clinton and expected Bill to support us, as WE HAVE ALWAYS SUPPORTED HIM. To vote against Bill Richardson in the future was not something I imagined would happen, but as he says in his New Mexico ads for cleaniness – NO MAS!

Why hasn't CNN fired this renegade?

If, in Mr. Carville's mind, Gov. Richardson is a Judas, what does that make Sen. Clinton...Jesus?

It is this entitled attitude – in this case so entitled as to put Clinton on par with God – that makes so many of us cringe.

Sad...just sad. Why do Clinton supporters feel she is entitled to the presidency. Americans don't seem to agree and that is why she's where she is...2nd. Furthermore, the Clinton camp is not being very democratic. Now they're saying the candidate should be decided by how many electoral votes they would get in the General. She wants to change the rules to win the nomination.
The longer this drags on, the less I like the Clintons.

Is Carville complaining that there is a lack of cronyism in politics? Politicians need to show their loyalty to the public, not their colleagues.

If Carville wanted to topedo Hillary's chances he couldn't have done a better job. Why do people tolerate Carville's attack dog mentality, he is as bad as the worst of the Republicans. At a time when the Democrats need unity to win the presidencey regardless of who is nominated.

Has anyone considered that Carville might be a bit unbalanced with his need to hurt anyone who disagrees with him. the Democrats need to distance themself from this guy as quickly as possible.

I agree with the statement as well. Richardson is a Judas and if he thinks he isn't he is on another planet – like most Obama supporters.

I agree with Carville's statement. Richardson's endorsement is a perfect example of the old adage: "There is no such thing as loyalty in politics". But what opportunistic politicians like Bill fail to understand is that loyalty is a characteristic that most Americans value. It is unfortunate that regardless of what Bill has done or will do in the future politically, many people will always view him as a traitor.

RICHARDSON'S A SPINLESS JELLY, JUST EXACTLY LIKE THE VERY WEAK AND SPINELESS, OBAMA.

OH HOW THE MIGHTY HAVE FALLEN....CARVILLE AND HIS WIFE HAVE LIVED IN A THE RARIFIED ROOM OF THE TALK SHOW ROUNDS FOR TOO LONG...THEY HAVE FORGOTTEN WHAT SERVING AS PRESIDENT IS ABOUT AND WHO IT IS FOR...SHAME ON YOU JAMES! SHAME ON YOU!

PATTY

You lost my respect, I wished you had been this vocal about John Kerry's run for the presidency.

You choose your battles huh??? More money from the Clinton's than John kerry huh???

Right On Carville! It's about time somebody stands up to what he or she says without being poetic. Richardson hypocrisy is at its highest. How can you back-stabbed your friends and claimed to be loyal? How can you talk stinked or criticizeed your friends and asked for unity? How can you stood there and watched your friends knocked down and claimed them to be your friends. Richardson's politics are self serving.

I understand where Carville is coming from but this campaign is about the American people. They will decide what they want. Hope Hillary keeps fighting for us...

it's comments like that which keep this process bitter and unprofessional, atypical of "politics of the old" atypical of the clinton style.

MORE CLINTON GUTTER POLITICS. GOV.RICHARDSON OWES HIS FIRST LOYALTY TO HIS COUNTRY, AS ALL OF US DO.

get over it mr. carville, not because you are a robot to the clintons' everbody else should be. you go govenor Richardson job well done.

THERE IS NO BETTER WORD THAT ADEQUATELY DESCRIBES RICHARDSON THAN 'JUDAS.' RICHARDSON SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF FOR ENDORSING OBAMA. WONDER WHAT OBAMA PROMISED HIM IN RETURN? LET'S HOPE, NOTHING. THAT HE HAS BEEN A LIFELONG FRIEND OF THE CLINTONS, OR AT LEAST SINCE 'CABINET DAYS' MEANS NOTHING TO THIS COWARD? RICHARDSON SPEAKS OUT OF BOTH SIDES OF HIS MOUTH, AND HE IS CERTAINLY INSINCERE AND DISHONEST... IF NOTHING ELSE. RICHARDSON'S A SPINLESS JELLY, JUST LIKE THE VERY WEAK AND SPINLESS OBAMA.

Judas sold out for silver, Richardson sold out for a "job" in the Obama Administration. A traitor is a traitor. I agree with James Carville.

In James Carville’s interview with Wolf Blitzer today, Carville likened not redoing the Florida and Michigan primaries to declaring a winner in a basketball game with 3½ minutes left or calling a baseball game in the 7th inning. What Carville won’t admit and Mr. Blitzer chose not to challenge him on was that teams have to abide by the rules that were agreed to before the start of the game and not try to alter them when they are losing. This can only be a sore loser crying foul.

Well I must agree. I feel Richardson betrayed the Clintons. I think he knows it also. He based his endorsement on a speech by Obama. We all know he (Obama) is a great one at speeches however Obama has no more to offer than just words. With friends's like Richardson who needs enemies? I guess at some point in our life we find out who we can really count on and who we can't. Hillary will do just fine without him and he did not even back up the people in his own state. What a guy!!!

I wouldn't want to be a so called friend of Bill Richardson. He has shown his true colors with this endorsement, which by the way was only for his benefit.

Just remember all you friends of Bill Richardson that he will turn on you, as he did to the Clintons, as longs as it benefits him.

I pray that Hillary Clinton goes all the way and wins the Presidency, so she can leave people like Bill Richardson in the dust.

He is a TRUE USER!

It's all about ME and my goatee.

I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT JAMES CARVILLE'S COMMENTS ABOUT GOV. RICHARDSON WERE VERY APPROPRIATE AND IN LINE WITH THE POLITICAL ARENA. LOYALTY IS A FORGOTTEN VALUE WE AMERICANS SEEMED TO HAVE LOST AND ONE DAY IT IS GOING TO COME AND BITE US IN THE REAR END ! WHATEVER HAPPENED TO LOYALTY FOR AMERICA'S INSTITUTIONS AND ALL THE CORNERSTONES OF OUR FREE COUNTRY ? WE EVEN SEE IT IN BEING LOST IN THE MOST BASIC FAMILY VALUES. WE VERY SELDOM SEE LOYALTY TO A PARENT. LOYALTY THAT WE SEEMED NOT TO VALUE ANYMORE CAN ONE DAY DESTROY AMERICA'S NAYIONAL SECURITY. ALSO , GOV. RICHARDSON'S BACKING OF OBAMA HAS NO SIGNIFICANCE IN THE HISPANIC VOTERS. OBAMA HAS LIED TO THE AMERICAN VOTERS AND IS STILL DOING IT AND A BIG PORTION OF AMERICA IS BUYING IT , ESPECIALLY THOSE YOUNG VOTERS THAT DO NOT KNOW A THING ABOUT WHAT OUR COUNTRY IS ALL ABOUT. THEY KNOW NOTHING ABOUT OBAMA OR WHERE HE WAS BORN AND RAISED. IT IS SAD TO SEE PEOPLE RULING THEIR DECISIONS TO VOTE ON THEIR EMMOTIONS. THIS ARE THE MOST DANGEROUS ONES WITH THE MIND OF A CHILD. I SAID IT ALL !

Sometimes James loses me? However, after listining to it again I get what he is saying. Richardson is Judus, He kisses (well hugs and picks) Brack Obama. So then following the symbolism; Brack Obama is "Christ?." That would make Hillary and her supporters (James) the Romans and High Priests who want to crucify the man who wants to brings slavation (Change). Now I get it! Thanks James.

"Got one in the wheelhouse and I tagged him"
~Am I the only one who feels like these Clinton folks are pissed because they feel something is owed them?
Well anyway, Go Hilldog! You'll get McCain's VP nod before you know it!

Thank you, James, for speaking what many of us wanted to say. I have ZERO respect for Richardson now. We're all supposed to be so happy about Obama's "loyalty" to Wright but it's okay for Richardson to stab the Clintons in the back. He's just as power hungry as Obama. I hope they run together so they lose together. What a couple of hypocrites. And, who does Richardson think he is? He's the governor of NM, not my state!

I have always liked James Carville and he has just shown why. He's a straight talker that can and will call a spade a spade. If anyone thinks Richardson, a marginal political figure without the Clintons, didn't trade his support for a position in the Obama administration, then I have property in Iraq to sell you. What part of Richardson's actions doesn't sound like Judas? Oh, and message to Bill Richardson: Lose the beard. It just makes you look biblical.

Of course, someone with Carville's supreme intellect wouldn't get the difference between "irony" and "coincidence". Also, equating Bill-ary with Jesus is hardly a fitting analogy.

Clinton Supporters like me.

Lets Unite and Vote McCain if Obama is Dem Nominee.
I don't want to vote another G.W.Bush office.

If I see Carville on CNN, I will change the channel to MSNBC.

THIS SHOULD BE ALL OVER THE NEWS TONIGHT AND SHOULD BE IN A LOOP FOR THE REST OF THE WEEK.

HOW SAD MAYBE RICHARDSON WAS RIGHT , WHAT DO THE CLINTON HOLD OVER THESE PEOPLE HEAD TO KEEP THEM IN LINE.

HE SHOULD RESIGN HIS POST

Good for Carville! Richardson thinks that he may have a chance of being the vice president for Obama because he is hispanic. Obama may win the battle but he is going to have a tougher time winning the war. Racism is alive and well in America and the republicans will use everything they have to defeat him. Obama is a crybaby and how will he take the beatdown we all know the right wingers will be giving him? Be careful what you wish for, democrats....

Richardson is clearly an opportunist. He was friends with the Clintons when it would benefit his career, and now he's jumping on the Obama bandwagon, because he really feels that Obama will be elected the democratic nominee. Richardson chooses now to side with Obama, and only recently finds him to be a great leader and inspirational speaker? This rules out the rationale for what the Obama morons have been using for the superdelegates. They DO NOT have to vote by consituents b/c they have none. If that were true, then Hillay Clinton should get Richardson's vote b/c she won New Mexico, no?

If Richardson is Judas, does that mean Hillary is Jeus Christ?

Ok Judas betrayed Jesus and no clinton is close to being a Jesus. Carville is a jerk.

I watched James Carville and listened to the comment he made.
How stupid of him to refer to religion which many of us don't believe in and also he reaffirmed his comment on live TV.
The man scares me to death just watching him. His face resemble DEATH itself. I thought that Hillary said that the endorsement was insignificant? What a liar she is and I feel sorry for her and her cheating husband which she did not divorce and now is trying to get in the White House. What a bunch of losers!

The Clinton campaign regularly cites the prerogative of superdelegates (and even, pledged delegates directly elected by their districts) in supporting the candidate they choose. It is silly that, now that a superdelegate decides to exercise his independent will, it is likened to a betrayal on the level of Judas's. The double standard applied by this campaign at every (convenient) turn is disconcerting.

Richardson as a super delegate/ governor/ politician could have endorsed Obama before the Texas and New Mexico primaries.
Why didn't he? He was just scouting for the longest coat tails.

HE's an E-Z Rider

I completly agree with Carville's remarks. Nothing wrong with telling it like it is.

Mo. Voter

Goodbye, CNN.

Bill Richardson is a small man, and politically, small potatoes. His so called "endorsement" is also small potatoes. For anyone who doesn't think so, please review his support by the electorate (2%??). Is he a Judas? Who even cares?

Did Obama promise him something? I doubt it. Who would even want him on their ticket?

CNN is blowing this up, like they do ANYTHING that is even slightly anti-Clinton.

Bill Richardson, your 15 minutes were up a long time ago.

the real question is who he thinks Jesus is.

I think you can all answer that yourself.

who cares about the mouth piece James Carville a staunch Clinton supporter! His opinion is irrelevant and another example of a so called high profile political commentator tearing down the democratic party!!!
Just because govenor Richardson worked for the Clintons in the
nineties does mean he owes them his life
He has also been a great govenor and has extensive foreign policy experience as an employee of the Clintons and a govenor
His record speaks for * itself * and he is his own person...he owes the Clintons nothing!!!
He has went o Africa and other places and spoke on behalf of captives
etc!!!
kudos to you governor Richardson for thinking and speaking for yourself!!!!

Well, I have to admit, I wondered why the support has come so late in the race, unless we're waiting to side with the apparent winner for a possible spot as running mate.

Despite Richardson's objections that he really hadn't considered this, it still looks suspicious.

Bill Richardson is very ungrateful. He would have been a nobody without the Clintons. He should have at least stayed out of endorsing anyone out of respect for what the Clintons have done for him.

So by Carville's logic Bill Clinton is Jesus Christ. A creepy glimpse into the mind of a slavish Clinton follower.

I have usually enjoyed James Carville but his Judas statement about Gov Bill Richardson makes Carville the "Ann Coulter" of the Clinton campaign as far as credibility is concerned.

I was a big fan of James Carville until he shocked me with his recent statement comparing Bill Richardson to Judas. This election might, in the end, be decided by Superdelegates. That being the case, I do not want the Superdekegates to choose a candidate based on how many favors they have gotten from that candidate or whether or not they are buddies with the candidate. Personally, I see James Carville as more of a Judas as he is helping to destroy the Democratic party with this bloody campaigning.

POS

I cant wait until thenext generation one day asks me who the funny looking bald man was.

Try and act like an adult next time jimbo

If I'm not mistaken, Hillary Clinton, and not Bill Clinton, is running for president of the United States. Bill Richardson didn't serve in Hillary's cabinet.. why should he owe *her* his allegiance?

Carville sure is proud of himself for making such an absurd statement.

I know once I wish politics were always based on who owed who what, you know, something akin to the loyalty system. But then I remember that's what drove the Bush administration to pick ITS staff and cabinet positions. Who pulled the right favors?

Politics should be based on skill and talent. That's why Richardson endorsed Obama. Bill Richardson doesn't owe Bill Clinton squat.

Bill Richardson is a sell out! What is it about Richardson's beard and darker skin? Is he trying to be more Latino? I am a Latina and I would not vote for him for any political position! He is a loser and his state voted for Hillary!

GoodBye. So much for open dialogue!!

I love you James! You call it the way you see it with no apologies, and I for one will always be your biggest fan! I am sick and tired of the political correctness game, and everyone tip toeing around Barack Obama and his minions. Keep it up! You are truly a breath of fresh air!

personally i think james is being to kind........richardson goes which ever the way the wind blows i think that richardson has designs on political gains in the white house if sen obama is elected....would i call him judas ? it would be much worse..... mr richardson thinks that he is uniting the party ? i would suggest the opposite..

Objectively...it's the truth. Obama and Hillary supporters alike should be able to agree on that. I felt the same way when Kerry endorsed Obama over Edwards.

I agree with Carville and Obama is right we, typical white people, don't understand the excuses of black people. Lets blame the honkey for all our shortcommings. Lets blame them for our neighborhoods turning into slums. Lets blame them for all the unwed mothers who keep having more kids, to get more welfare. Lets blame them for getting high on drugs to avoid a daily job. Lets blame them for our inner schools being in such disrepair, never mind that we like to graffitti anything that doesn't move. Lets blame them for everything that has ever happened in our lives and our ancestors. Never mind we were sold by our own people. Lets just blame the whites, it's all their fault.

You have to love James if you are a democrat. He says what he thinks with flair. Most of us are very angry with Richardson and will not be near and dear to our hearts again. Betrayal is betrayal and he will have to live with his decision.

Pretty funny watching Carville stutter for an explanation to his words. He fits the mold of a typical Hillary supporter perfectly with one exception. He said he'd support Obama in the general if need be, I'd like to see that commitment from other supporters.

I think James is wright and I am disapointed that the govenor did this. I hoped he would be a v-P candident for Hillary but now we can forget that. I am also disapointed that the black race has turned their back on the Clintions

Mr. Carville sounds like a typical racist just like Ferraro I like to call them undercover Republicans. I actually have more respect for the Rep., at least I know where they stand. I heard his interview with Wolf and what he said about Obama not wanting the votes in Florida and Michigan to count are not accurate. Obama wants the process to be fair and I can't imagine Hillary wanting any thing different if she was leading in the delegate race. What message are we sending to our children, the 'future voters of America'. I was raised that rules should be followed and the voters of these two states have no one to blame but the political members of their states who made the decision not to follow the rules and to hold their primaries early.

Thank you James Carville!
We witness again the reasoning that makes you tops in reading the "great middle of Pennsylvania that resembles Alabama 1808".

Man , Richardson is a loser

He is absolutely right about Richardson. He sold himself for VP port.

This is typical of the Clintons, and it belongs on the manure pile
with all the other stench. Such as Whitewater, Monica etc., etc.,

How does the DNC ever in this world allow her to be a canidate
for the highest office in this land, after all of that. I think it woul be a
damm shame to have the Clinton's stinking up th White House
again.

Jack Quinn

Well, well! Does CNN now have censors protecting the Clintons?? Why was no one at CNN censoring the repeated showings of the Reverend's
video.

Maybe Gov, Richardson wants to be the new VIce-Pres or Sec of State it does fit his profile and ambition and OBama is happy to oblige the same old politics

amen

Since it is now a foregone conclusion that Hillary will not be the Democratic nominee, does this also mean we are done with Team Clinton's roving band of lackys?

I certainly hope that a Hillary loss will guarantee that we don't have to see another minute of Carville, Begala, Wolfson and especially Lanny Davis on our television screens.

This would be just precious.

Carville is a tool, a political one at that, that will sell his opinionated voice to the highest bidder.

Bill Richardson on the other hand works for the country and his siding with Obama took a lot of courage and leadership.

CNN, You must have gotten a bundle of hate mail on Carville,
Because everything was erased. Carville is no good person.

OBAMA/EDWARDS 2008 or NO One. Democrats will not vote
for Liar Hillary.

One of the things I so love about James Carville is his ability to call it as he sees it. Governor Richardson sold out. I've lost all respect for him.

The Clinton campaign can no longer play down these big endorsements. Richardson's support is so significant and painful to the Hillary camp that Carville blew a gasket and made a tactical mistake. Forget the fact that it was hyperbole and inappropriate, the statement gets played over and over allowing the endorsement to sink into voters consciousness and takes the Rev. Wright's looped remarks off the nightly news. Keep rajun' Mr. Cajun, it's an uncharacteristic gift to the Obama campaign–one that keeps on giving.

I would like to thank James for his statement. I had supported Hillary in the past but I was having second thoughts. This was because Hillary keep trying to change the rules. After James statements I am changing to Obama. Is James telling us Hillary is Jesus? Obama was correct stating Hillary is the same old Washington. Thank you very much James.

Way too go Mr. Carville . The truth does hurt when all this man did was vote for the party instead of voting for his own state results of who won in that race. Why not just hand the dreamer the ticket and let it run it's path. What's the matter Gov. Richardson, you don't trust the people with-in your own state. Hopefully they will remember how lousy you lead the people. What a disgrace. Wake up people, you need too make a good decision about who will bring this country into a prosperous future. Bill Clinton did it once and Hillary Clinton will do it again. Hopefully she will use better people this time than Judas ( Gov. Richardson ). Vote Hillary Clinton 08

Thank you, Mr. Carville. You tell it like it is!

The real reason for Gov. Richardson's endorsement of Obama was to distract the Nation of Obama's racist pastor of 20 years. We know Gov. Richardson made a deal with the devil.

It's amazing how you can't choose who you feel is the right candidate for "you." Do you not think that Richardson served well under Bill Clinton and that was his job so therefore he paid him back. Should Richardson be indebted to Bill Clinton forever? No. Richardson, just like the rest of us have our own minds and we should feel free to make our own decisions. Anyway, Richardson served under Bill Clinton, not Hillary Clinton. He ran against Hillary Clinton before he dropped out.

Now, is Carville comparing Hillary to Jesus? Or Bill Clinton to Jesus? It is very painful to see so many adults behaving like kids. Just throwing temper tantrums, yelling, crying, etc. Get over it!!!

You are a shame Mr Richardson to the Latino Community.

Have you not realized that we support Hillary all the Way, not because of any prejudice, but because we care about our nation. Hope this wrong choice of yours will bring your political careeer to an end.

Hillary for President

My thoughts exactly.

Well said Carville. Good for you sir. I think that a lot of New Mexico residents feel the same way...betrayed.

James Carville's remarks are Ann Coulter-esque, in their vitriol. While former President Clinton appointed Gov. Richardson to two cabinet posts, Gov. Richardson returned the favor with his service. If someone decides to employ me, I'd hope it was because they wanted my services, and not because they expected me to make a faustian bargain.

If Carville's calculated venom is characteristic of the Clinton campaign, I am even further resolved to support Obama. After almost eight years of the Bush administration, we don't need any more thuggery in the White House.

What does he now think that Clinton is Jesus-like and worthly of disciple-like devotion? I don't think so. Why is it not ok to vote based on racism, sexism or ageism but somehow OK vote based on Clinton favoritism. Does Carville think Richardson sold his soul and all future political decisions to Clinton for 2 appointments. Give me a break. Maybe Carville did, but I am sure other don't see a lifetime of bowing to the Clinton just exchange for anything. This sense of Clinton entitlement is worst than Rev. Wright's lunacy. Wright is a crazym bitter old man, what is Carville and Clinton's excuse for this insane reasoning. Wait, they 2 are crazy bitter old men? Guess this is the year for crazy bitter old men who support presidential candidates.

Good grief! This lizard needs to keep his trap shut.

So Hilary wants unity, but can't get a handle on her team or even her own husband making divisive comments towards Obama.

No way we can trust a person that can't lead their team. She's got people running amuk for her all over the place. At least Obama gets his people to apologize after divisive remarks.

Face it peopl Hilary has not shown great leadership during this campaign.

IS HILLARY GOING TO FORCE CARVILLE TO RESIGN FOR CALLING RICHARDSON "JUDAS" ... PRETTY SOON WE WILL SEE THE REAL CANDIDATES BECAUSE THEY WILL BE ALL ALONE!

I have always respected James Carville's political acumen, but in this case I think he is dead wrong. Governor Richardson has every right to choose who he wants to see President and in this case, he chose Senator Obama. The right choice, in my humble opinion. Come on, Carville, this isn't Russia. We still have that right, don't we!!!?
SUPPORT OUR TROOPS, BRING THEM HOME, ALIVE. NOW.

Clinton is not Jesus. Therefore, Richardson is not a "Judas."

I agree with Richdson that Clintons are surrounded by partisan people who are vicious.

Of all times to compare someone to Judas, to do it over the Easter Weekend is inexcusable.

James Carville may be a political genius, but he's socially inept.

Wasn't this guy in the movie "Old School"? He used to be so cool.

By comparing Gov. Richardson to Judas, is he comparing Hillary to Jesus?!

Like his remark affected anyone other than him or the Clinton followers who salivate at any derogatory remarks the Clinton campaign are becomning known for.This poor little man has always been one of the worse decisions the Clintons ever made and it is his brand of politics they still employ today...which is much of the reason that Senator Clinton is losing the popular vote. I personally would like to be able to listen to him state anything without the uhh uhh uhh before he makes any comment. It's unbecomming and reminds one of an idiot savant.

"Got one in the wheelhouse and I tagged him" This today's best example of why Hillary has got to go – it is pitch-perfect snipery as practiced by the people she surrounds herself with. Scorched-earth blood-sport scratching and clawing for any advantage whatsoever – real or perceived. All you Hillary supporters – can you honestly say she has ever inspired you for even a moment to be a better person or citizen? Do you really think her land deals, stock market windfalls, corporate toadying and resume padding were in service of some higher good? Every day it gets clearer and clearer she really will say or do anything to be elected, or have someone else say it so it doesn't stick to her. Monster? Too harsh a word, perhaps, but ask yourself – does she seek high office to give or to get?

Is he serious what kind of argument is that? How do you defend yourself from such stupid comments. And once again these comments are seen as appropriate by the Clinton camp. Meanwhile, Obama has to go around denoucing everything in the book. Can anyone say unfair? Please get back to the issues, its like we're dealing with children, the stories get more dumb each day.

Good for Carville!!! I'm from Iowa and I think it is dispicable what Fischer had to say about the blue dress. Obama is no saint and all his skeletons are starting to come out of the closet. Its ok to talk of your grandmother being the typical white person, listen to an unpatriotic pastor say the things he did, his unpatriotic wife, and on & on & on. His day will come!!!!!!!

If Governor Richardson was interested in bringing the Democratic party together, he should have stayed neutral.

I too believe he betrayed the Clinton's. He showed his true colors.

I applaud James Carvill for his courage on his statement on Gov. Richardson.. The facts are what they are; his friendship is certainly a shallow one and I suppose he is looking to being VP on the ticket.

Carville calls it for what it is; Richardson is out for himself. He shows no character pandering for VP or some other position.

Governor Richardson does not understand what the word loyalty means. He owes his whole career to the Clintons.

However, hypocrites flock together. He is welcome to go down with Senator Obama. We don't need a divisive president whose wife and minister degrade our country. Obama is not fit to lead our country.

So Carville is all about "effect" – not surprising. I wonder how he manages to sleep at night. – do snakes sleep?

Mr. Carville, since Richardson spent his first 13 yrs in Mexico City I think He has alot in commen with Obama who spent most of his first 10 yrs in a Muslim Country. As you can guess opinions of America and White People were probably made before these children ever made it back to the US. Change? What kind? More help for Muslim people and more help for illeagals is what I see. Morality! I'm a Red Blooded American who loves this country, the flag for which it stands, and I pray for the young people who are in a war which should have never been. I have no Idea how Bush sleeps at night!
You are right Richardson is a backstabber and a Judice! We need Clinton-08 Roy-Idaho

Carville is the Karl Rove of the Clinton machine. Pay him no heed.

I loved Bill Richardson until now.

but if he can not see the ruthlessness of Obama, cleverly disguised under a veneer of calm, he is not very astute.

Richardson should know better than to endorse Obama given Obama's constant personal attacks on BOTH Clintons.

Why don't they all just let the voters decide- and actually COUNT all the votes. Instead, Howard Dean, the DNC, the Democratic Elite, the Media, African American pundits all try to force Obama down our throats. We will spit him out, now or later.

I think that they want to install Obama as the nominee, and now have too much invested in that effort to be able to turn back.

Without all the illegality, Hillary would be WAY ahead and be the nominee by now.

I say Hillary is the BEST for the country and the only one able to heal the wounds that Obama has created.

Wow, this should show everyone what both Obama and Clinton are like. Both are running "slime" campaigns and should be recognized for doing so.

So far, the cleanest candidate to date has been John McCain. I was pretty much undecided until the Rev. Wright thing came out. I now know who I will be voting for and it's not a Dem!

When (not if) will she drop out?

That's it. Will the super-delegates step in now. The media is just lapping this up and would love nothing more than for this fighting to continue until both candidates are bloodied. If the democrats want to win in November then the super-delegates had better grow a spine and stop this insanity NOW.

I have never been so disgusted in my life.

Amen, Carville! I wonder how the Latinos Richardson represents feel about him now. The majority of Latinos support Hillary, why would Richardson go against their vote? And he walked on his own words about the Super Delegates. He is a Judas and will probably not get re elected. My opinion of him has sure changed, he is what most people flush down the toilet.

Has anyone commented that what is truly offensive in Carville's comment, aside from implying a parallel to presidential politics and life-and–death, is that it makes Hillary parallel to . . . Jesus? Is this what the campaign really thinks?

I recall Carville saying Hillary needed to win both Ohio and Texas big in order to continue. Well she didn't even win Texas so by Carville's own terms the Clintons have lost. Maybe Richardson wanted to be part of positive team and not one that can't recognize when it's lost and is hurting the party as a whole.

"Clinton stresses party unity in Pennsylvania"
Really?

Good grief, talk about sore losers. Obama has gotten people invloved in the election process, like myself, who otherwise would not have voted. That is admirable. Can't Richardson like that brand politics better and still be friends with the Clintons? I am sure it might have stung Hillary a bit, but this is business politics.

Moreover, Carville needs to get out of the beltway more often. Out here in the real world people who don't agree politically can get along as friends. Yes, even so far as democrats marrying republicans.

He's a Judas for not supporting his friend, but supporting the person he feels is the correct person for the job?

If Obama paid him to move sides, then sure, he'd be a Judas. But to chastize an American citizen for supporting their candidate of choice instead of a friend? Supporting the person you think is right and not your friend, regardless of who it is, is not "being a Judas." It's being intelligent.

Richardson is a Judas. Sold his soul to hopefully become Obama's running mate. Too bad neither's desires will be fullfilled.

I might have know wathching CNN who owns this communist rag, CNN. TED TURNER. He's the one who married one of the biggest supporters of Communism in the United State, JANE FONDA. NAM VETS remember her antics in the Nam giving up our prisoner's names. She is a traitor, Ted Turner is an OBAMA supporter and also a traitor. Now I guess you get your drift where CNN is going with their Newscasting.

Jack Cafferety is so biased he hurts. He hates the Clintons because Bill put the drunken soul in his place. I hope you sleep well, J... A..! If he should make President get prepared for you networks CNN, Time Warner, TB, TNN, MSNBC, HBO, Etc to go down the drain. I for one will not watch any of your shows again.

Carville has a skewed sense of betrayal. Just because a person is a close friend of the Clintons doesn't mean he or she must believe that Hillary is the best candidate.

James you are right in your views.
Does anyone really know what Loyal means?

" Defination of Loyal (OXFORD ENGLISH DICTIONARY)"

"""faithful and true to allegiance"""
you MR. Richardson are a Traitor to your Convictions and you are not worthy of your position
step down now and save your Honor before it is too late.

Typical Carville gutter tactic. I've quickly lost what little respect I had for him and his tactics. Time for CNN to send a message and dump him as well.

. . .Clinton's team basically told Gov. Richardson that after Texas , the Hispanic voters were not needed anymore. He probably has first hand
knowledge of how the Clintons use people, then casts them aside.
Its Pennsylvania 's turn now. Time to appeal to the voters that govenor
Rangell said "are not ready to vote for an african american". I guess
that's the reason for the current race baiting. I believe Gov. Richardson when he said that those are the people that Clinton surrounds herself with. I used to respect James Carville.

Governor Richardson is no Judas and Clinton is by no stretch of the imagination in the same league as Jesus. Carville's comment was offensive on several levels.
Governor Richardson's decision to endorse Obama was a courageous one and worthy of respect. Simply put, he endorsed the better candidate.

Obama 2008

Mr. Carville,

Are you then comparing the Clintons to Jesus? You may think your comment was a "wheelhouse", but I think it belongs in the "outhouse".

Why is it that if campaigns last long enough more commentators and politicians end up in the gutter or promoting these kind of comments?

C

James your commet was "right on". I thought the same thing when I heard that he was coming out in support of Obama. What has happened to loyalty? I guess it's just a game of "what have you done for me lately".
Richardson made the commmet that it shouldn't be Bush then Clinton then Bush then Clinton....that it's time for change. Souldn't your vote go to the person you think can do the job?
And besides that unlike the 2nd Bush the 2nd Clinton is smart, cares about this country and thinks for herself. She will get us out of war, not lead us into it.

Hillary 08

Carville knows the game is over for the Clintons. Blind loyalty does not benefit our country or the democratic party. The Clintons' dirty tricks are turning a lot of people off including superdelegates.

i think the whole thing of picking on petty stuupid stuff like those is silly as obama normally puts... grow up

It seems Mr. Carville knows the bible. It's too bad he doesn't follow the lord's teachings

Carville is just mad that his candidate is losing...

I dont know why anybody would want to be around a camp that talks so bad about someone who they were courting for so long to endorse them.. that's a shame how Hillary supporters are.

OBAMA 08!

Carville would not back down his smear remarks just like Ferraro's attitude! It is such a shame for Carville to make such an outrageously stupid statement. I will just change channel next time if he ever shows up on TV.

Is this part of the Clintons strategy to intimidate other super delegates for supporting Obama?

Correction: James Carville JUDAS comment about Bill Richardson.
I fully agree on the metaphor.

I watched the interview. Good for Carville. If Richardson wanted to endorse Obama, he should have done it long ago or just waited until the Primaries were over. President Clinton did give him a job, twice. It looks like Richardson is an opportunist. Besides, Hillary Clinton won New Mexico – so much for super delegates voting for the candidate that won. I just wish we can let the voters vote and wait to see how close these two candidates finally get. It will be up to the super delegates but you do have to wait until the votes are cast. Obama doesn't have the magic number either.

The portrayal in the media by CNN, MSNBC, Fox and others is no different than the partisan politics on the Hill. It's worse because the media is playing out this hypocrisy right in front of our eyes. In fact , I equate the media like the paparazzi who are tormentors looking for a way to find fault with everything. The media is very quick to drag down any candidate that they don't support. Too bad, because based on the blogs, this nation is very divided. Keep it media – you should be proud.

I find it funny that when Richardson was a candidate, all he did was talk about the need for experience to bring about change. Now, the requirement is inspiration?

Also, it's funny that Obama's campaign thinks superdelegates should go with what there states say. Then why haven't Kerry, Kennedy, Patrick , Napolitano and Richardson support the will of their people and switch to Hillary?

Wow! Is America turning into, or has already turned into, a banana republic where "loyalty" to the Queen/King is more important than anything else?? And why the heck is Carville so mad??

Also, I thought that this was not that important for Clinton? So, why is Carville barking so loudly??

Finally – is not being close to Carville a negative or a positive??

For those who don't know much, James Carville is not only opinionated, he is also a strong proponent of loyalty – he even wrote a book about it. I am also a strong proponent of loyalty, but I am not changing my mind about Bill Richardson just because he betrayed the Clintons in a craven attempt to advance himself. My opinion of this monumental loser and sycophant was already low enough to cover this sell-out.

Carville is a cartoon charachter. Unlike Bill Richardson, he is a Clinton lap dog. The Clinton campaign is getting more pathetic by the day. Hillary married into politics, the Whitehouse, the Senate and now is trying to claim the Presidecy as yet another Clinton entitlement.

I once had respect for James Carville. So if you don't endorse Hillary you are a traitor? I thought in a democracy you had the right to vote for/endorse who you wanted to. I know that all of the 13 plus million that have voted for Hillary Clinton have that right. Why doesn't Bill Richardson have that right ??????

Another inflammatory, anti-semitic comment by the Reverend Carville !

hillary is no jesus

my enemy friend is my enemy huh no latino vote left so they dont matter anymore ...

i was for hillary no more i went and voted for her in friged temp no thanks we from red states we dont matter??????

obama 08

Why is it hard for clinton supporters to respect Richardson's decision. He cares about the clintons, but says clearly, " must do whats right for the country".

The clinton's sure can dish it out , but they can't take it. !!!

If Hillary is so electable ...... why isn't she winning

She is no longer running on her own merit.

The only time she seems to do well is when she is ripping Obama apart

This is not an honorable way to be elected .

Carville is right. Richardson betrayed a friend. He did his endorsement in a way to build himself up and push the insult in the face of a friend. What is the saying: With friends like these, who need enemies.

Carville said what many Hillary supporters believe. Richardson was out of a job when Bill Clinton appointed him. Each time he had lost an election. What a jerk.

It will be ironic when Senator Obama loses (either the nomination and/or the general election) and Bill Richardson loses his re-election for Governership in New Mexico. The people have already spoken in that State.

Bill Richardson is a sell out, and his political career is over. Can he really sleep at night??

Carville is a jerk, Like the Clintons he will do or say anything to get back into the White House, He wants to be press secretary.

Without the Clintons he is going nowhere. I know I am not in his followers.

Obama will show them where it's at.

I agree with James Carville's Juda comment about Bill Richardson .
George Washington had Benedict Arnold.
Bill and Hillary Clinton have Bill Richardson

God bless Carville. He is right once again. Why is it people who have been helped by others seem to stab that person in the back. That is the problem with the USA, people are just not loyal. If they see another boat that would help them out more they will screw everyone else over.

"One in the wheelhouse and I tagged him" ??

What does that even mean? I don't get it. I guess Carville is a big old hater.

The personal attacks never seem to end, do they? So, if they are all doing it, can I be a hypocrite too?!?! Alright then, here I got one:

Stop name calling! Oh, by the way. Homeboy looks like an alien... I look at Carville and hear the theme to X-Files.

OBAMAHILLARYMCCAIN '08!!!
YES WE CAN, WILL, AND FORGOT!!!

Carville is doing what so many in the media does all so well. They put out notions that will ultimately play in the minds of the people watching. The American people must hold the canidates accountable only for what we actually here them say or do, (not their surrogate or supporters). Carville and many of Sen. Clinton's supporters are hurt over Gov. Richardson's endorsemet of Sen. Obama because it is a huge statment to the credibility of Sen. Obama to lead this nation over that of Sen. Clinton's. Instead of focusing on the issues of this nation and doing what they need to help prove Sen. Clinton's capability, they attack those who exercise their right to choose whom they want to lead. It is distasteful of Carville and a sad day when he attacks one man's freedom to make his own choice for the nomination.

I admire James Carville's straight-forward talk because that's what Richardson is. Though he served his two positions in the Clinton years well, there is no doubt that Bill Clinton was the person gave him those chances that propelled him to the national limelight and eventually the governorship of NM. Thanks James for setting that man straight!!!!

So this is one of the folks that really needs to grow up. Clinton camp isnt getting it they are making themselves look bad. Oh well keep up the good work guys.

Obama 08

Who needs enemies when you have friends like James Carville? He represents the true face of Hillary Clinton's campaign. They believe that Hillary Clinton is entitled to presidency and that all those who worked in Bill Clinton's administration need to remain loyal to the King. This is precisely the reason Hillary needs to be defeated to stop Bush and Clinton monarchies. Hillary thinks the same way and that's why people who did not endorse her had a difficult time talking to her. That's why she comes across as ice queen! Once in a while she comes with a fake smile or laugh or tears and her surrogates start shouting – "THIS IS THE REAL HILLARY!!!!!" You can fake something once in a while not on a continuous basis. It's time to vote for a real and genuine person.

This is what happens when the supposed crowning inauguration does not go as planned for the so called queen in waiting.

And this from a man that accuses the Obama camp of being negative and saying things about the Clinton camp that is not true. This is also the man that it is Obama's fault that Florida and Michigan will not revote. Yes, does Mr Carville really think Americans are stuid? If any one is following the news, they know that this is the fault of the Florida and Michigan leadership. The problem is Sen Clinton knowingly voted for and accepted the DNC position on Florida and Michigan, and the voting process. She even stated in Iowa that Florida and Michigan was not going to count. MR Carville, the reason Michigan is not voting is because the elected state leadership stated "We are not comfortable with the fact that this election is being sponsored by Clinton Supporters" and refused to vote on it. Ahhhh, yes MR Carville, I spend 4 hours each day reading and listening to the news and am quite well informed. So give it up. Your just as bad as the Clinton camp, ahhhhhh oh yes I forgot you are part of the Clinton camp, ( a supporter).

I love James Carville. He says what he thinks and is usually right. It's about time this country wakes up from the coma that Obama has put us in and if Carville is going to be the defibrillator than so be it!!
Hillary 08, the only rational choice!!

Very rarely do we get straight talk from people in the know. Kudos to you Carville for telling it like it is.

Why did Richardson stay in the race til Super Tuesday? He knew he wasn't going to win the nomination, he was way behind in polls and delegates. Why? Because he wanted the voters to be heard, even the 1% that voted for him in his own state of New Mexico. If we use his own argument that the super delegates should support the will of their constituency, he should have supported Hillary. But he didn't. That is precisely what the other super delegates should do, even if Obama is ahead in June, they should use their independent judgment to decide the nominee.

I personally don't think it was Obama's speech that swayed him, I think it was jealousy. Jealousy against Hillary for taking away his home State.

Carville's big shot attitude is outrageous. Would Carville happen
to be a friend of Rush Limbaugh. If not, Carville should join the
Rush L. show. Birds of a feather....................................................

OBAMA/EDWARDS and no one else will do.

Richardson appears to be putting his country ahead of his friendship which, in my opinion is very hard to do. This action has earned my respect in an age when a "friend's and family" administration is in the Whitehouse.

It is sad to see what kind of "pundits" CNN is having on the payroll. Does Hillary Clinton really believe she has a guarantee (chartered right) on the presidency? Mr. Carville is as outdated as Hillary Clinton and the only attribute sticking on everybody related to her campaign is SORE LOOSERS.

"I got one in the wheelhouse and I tagged him."

Well, he got what he wanted. He stirred up some controversy to get Clintons name in the paper. And also the try and get some negative press about Richardson because they cant allow his endorsement to be a good thing. Ive come to realize that the candidates dont really speak for themselves anymore. Now we are choosing a candidate based on gossip from their people. When the candidates have something to say about the issues, I will pay full attention because what they decide will either change my future for the better or worse. But when these so called "Spokesmen" or "Advisors" say anything, and I mean ANYTHING, I will change the channel because after this election, nobody will even remember their name let alone what nonsense they spew from their mouths.

About time someone stood behind their comments and not apologize for getting to the point. I don't like Carville, but this is at least respectable.

Whatever, I think its cool that Richardson endorses Obama, therefore the fight that Obama will have on the convention floor that Superdelegates go with the popular vote is null-in void. New Mexico went to Hillary and their governor went for Obama. Either Obama refuses the endorsement or don't use that argument at the convention!

Carville's attitude is the perfect example of what is wrong with Clintonian politics: it's always about winning the game and never about the good of the country. If Gov. Richardson isn't going to back Hillary Clinton, then the response is to try to pull him down to the gutter. Apparently that's where James Carville is most comfortable.

Bill Richardson the same as Judas? Hillary Clinton is not Jesus!!!!!!!!! This stuff is getting so out of control.

Hillary, go home, you're killing the democratic party.

Obama '08

Pathetic.
Anyway since when has Hillary been compared to Jesus? she is nearly as Judas as Lieberman to the Democratic Party, destroying it slowly from the inside.

wow..... what arrogance

The desired effect...a petty, constantly angry man trying to destroy a man who served at the United Nations, as Secretary of Energy and in peace negotiations? What has Carvelle done except by the Karl Rove of the Clinton machine!!

I listened to both Gov. Richardson and Senator Hart and was struck with their ability to state their cases without anger or rancor; too many Clinton supporters are angry, talk over others and are plain rude!

Shame on you James Carville, shame on you.

You and that Republican wife of yours deserve each other!

So every person who ever got a job from Bill Clinton has some sort of moral obligation to support him and his wife forever?

Even if they strongly are against her vote to authorize the Iraq war? Even if they are disturbed by the Clintons proven dishonesty?

All of you in politics are supposed to be loyal to only one thing- the American people.

I would think that he betrayed the Clintons. It blows my mind with all the stuff that has come out on Obama that any person in their right mind would support him at this point. It also shocks me since his state went for Clinton and I could care less if it was by a hair, she won the states. If you ask his state now, more would say they wished they would have voted for someone else since his true beliefs have been shown. He was always for Obama just playing the game, and he thought it would help if he came out in his lowest point to give his support and it did, but Im sure he lost some of his supporters in New Mexico. WHAT OBAMA OFFERED HIM THE VP. STILL WOULD NOT VOTE FOR THEM.

How typical of the Clinton campaign to compare her to Jesus.

Gov. Richardson had a difficult task. He wanted to end a rather bad
week for Obama on a high note with his endorsement. Unfortunately
it was Good Friday which " set up " the slam by Carville. It is more
amusing than significant. Richardson should have thought of it
and waited until today to announce his endorsement.

Carville put it perfectly, considering Richardson's close relationship with the Clintons and the fact the Clinton won his state.

Its obvious from the timing of the endorsement that Richardson's only reason for endorsing Obama is because he is winning. He waited long enough to be fairly sure he was endorsing a winner, but soon enough so that he can claim he had an effect when 2012 rolls along.

Love him or hate him, Carville really is a straight talker who tells it like it is! Wonder what kinds of things Richardson was saying in private to Hillary before he turned around and did this...

Would Governor Richardson be just another Congressman without the Clintons? Maybe.

Was this over the top? Probably.

Just keep in mind that James Carville is not noted for his apologies and that Richardson is the one who has emphasized his "loyalty" to the Clintons.

If Bill is Judas of Clinton then Judas of democratic party is Hillary Clinton. She has ruined the party.

Hillary/Sinbad '08 : Experience to lead from day one.

Bill Richardson was not only wrong in making this decision at this time, it was against everything that he preached about in the past and against the will of his State... That does in fact make him a traitor to the State of New Mexico!!!
He has one thing on his mind and that is a job...
Selfish... Now he is running around saying he did it for unity and Obama is the "one"... Honestly man, if Senator Obama gets the Democratic nod, only HALF of the party has been supporting him and 36% (by poll) of Senator Clinton's supporters will go to the Republicans...
Obama is not ready to Govern our Nation and neither was Richardson.

Shameful. Clinton slams Obama over what one of his supporters say. Obama cannot control what his supporters say, especially those who are not even involved in his campaign. Then one of Clinton's advisors on her campaign makes this statement. (note the difference, this person is on clinton's campaign and the other comment came from a mere obama supporter)

In the end, I wish the candidates would not have to be responsible for what supports say, and less for what their campaign advisors say. Candidates should not have to constantly defend themselves from comments they did not make, and candidates should stop attacking each other for what they did not say!

Mr. Carville is right about the impact of Gov. Richardson choosing not to support a friend. I wonder what is promised to some of these Clinton supporters that support Obama. It is his choice who he supports however self-motivated it looks.

Richarson worked for BILL Clinton. He owes Hillary nothing. When are people going to stop pretending they are the same person?

Unbelievable! You gave me a job 20 years ago, and now I owe you my life – get real. Times change, people change. How dare you compare Hillary to my Lord and Savior and Richardson to Judas.

Good thing for you James! You have the right to say in this democratic nation! I support you with your stand, Richardson's endorsement did not only betrayed the CLINTONS but also the Latino community in New Mexico where HILLARY won, the Latinos in CA, AZ, TX, FL as well. If he wants to have a united Democratic party this August he would have shut up and remained uncommitted until the convention!

Now, Obama's people cannot argue that superdelegates should reflect the voice of their constituencies since his superdelegates are breaking the rule, Kerry & Kennedy should votre for HILLARY since she won MA by 13 points, Neopolitano of AZ should also vote for HILLARY since she won AZ by wide margin! ALL OF THESE SUPERDELEGATES are HYPOCRITES! Good for you guys, your careers are done and you're stucked with an amateur candidate who will never win the election!

CLINTON/EDWARDS FOR 2008!

Wow! this got on fast! I just watched this live. Wolf, you tried about 200 ways to get him to say what you wanted. James being James he said it straight. Too bad we can't see in print something more like what the actual interview was. Also sad is the Wolf saying every few minutes a negative spin on what Caraville had to say.
He came on good-humored & was bullied. He refused to trashtalk Richardson. To his credit.
I don't think too many people have all that high an opinion of Bill Richardson. My last recall with him was with the Alberto Gonzales scandal & how he gave him extra time because Gonzales was a Hispanic too. Where's THAT story?!

Carville looks like Red Foreman from that 70's show.

should I post on this or what? After the name calling, the sermon comment, the fighting, the girly talk, we still have a war going on, people are still loosing their homes, people are still loosing their jobs.

Keep it going Carville, you must be a agent of Senator Obama, if you are you are doing one whale of a job!

I used to have much respect for Carville. We all know Richardson is a good man, and there is no need for the hatred toward him for not doing as the Clintons wanted him to do. What is wrong with voting for the person he believes is best for the job? If he went against his on beliefs for "loyalty", wouldn't that be the same as we have had in the Bush admin. I am so disappointedd in James Carville.

What about common sense in this election?

Come on James. I have tremendous respect for your views and skills but this comment is terrible. Comparing Governor Richardson who is competent and well respected to Judas because he is endorsing Obama sounds like an intimidation tactic to other super delegates who are going to endorse Senator Obama. This is the Clinton strategy-place fear in your friends. James you are aware of this strategy.

Hats off to Governor Richardson for moving beyond the control of the Clintons and shame on you James for entering in this kind of non-sense.

Says a lot when a close Clinton friend and former cabinet member Richardson endorses Obama...but says even more when the Clinton camp cries "traitor" after the fact.

And is it me, or does Carville sound like Karl Rove here??

I Agree james ! Im a Latino and me and my mom and sisters and brothers feel the same way ! and we will not support obama and thats that!!!!! and we are catholics and are still bothered by a man who would listen to stuff as he did!!

James Carville is an idiot

Carville you have my full support. This "Judas Richardson" is only trying to position himself to be "something".

YEAH IT WAS A SILLY ANALOGY BUT IT WAS *TRUE*

Bill Richardson betrayed him.
Richardson is entitled to his own opinion, yes, but he knows it was betraryal so if he were strong enough to make the endorsement, then he shouldn't be whining about the critism.

ONE THING IS FOR SURE – I AM A LATINO VOTER AND I WILL NOT, NO WILL NOT FOLLOW RICHARDSON .

Latinos 4 Hillary !

Hey, turnip head, the politics of old do not work any more, although it almost looked like it did last week.

Mark my words, Hillary just lost a lot of the latino vote.

Good job turnip head.

Moron.

good work, Mr. Carville.

SHAME ON YOU RICHARDSON!!

HILLARY 08

That's OK Carville,

Billy Boy was a lousy Commander in Chief in the eyes of the service men and women, and his wife will continue that trend – remember he said that he loathed the military.

I was on active duty throughout Bill's tenure, and I will still be on active duty after the next innauguration. I can't wait to see what Hillary does to exploit me this time around.

Remember, Judas helped kill a man – isn't that the type of political rumor that followed the last Clinton administration?

i agree with him a man like richardson jumped in to tfeather his own nest so much for following the wishes of your state. Obama talks the talk but he doesnt walk the walk I say it time to give Obama the knockout punch and vote clinton

??? so gov. richardson was appointed by bill clinton not based upon his merits but because bill would need to cash in on a favor later? haven't we spent the last 8 years dealing with this sort of thing? hhhmm, a judas because you want (what you feel) is best for dems...give me a break!

....and Senator Clinton keeps saying that her people aren't mean-spirited.

Real mature!
What about the Clintons and Peter Paul?

I'am really disappointed that we keep hearing about Monica. That relationship where wrong is between him and Mrs. Clinton. I don't think anyone has questioned Obama's patriotism. Again, I think this is an Obama fan who doesn't really know Obama either making allegations against her. Obama fans are too rapped up in fighting.

Uhh CNN, time to drop Carville. As much as most people like him, he should be ashamed of himself for comparing Hillary to Jesus.

YOU WERE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT WITH YOUR ANALYSIS JAMES CARVILLE.

YOU STATED WHAT ALL CLINTON SUPPORTERS WERE THINKING AND WE ALL FELT THE BETRAYAL..

IF BILL (JUDAS) RICHARDSON TRULY FELT THAT WAY ABOUT HILLARY R. CLINTON HE COULD HAVE CHANGED HE SUPPORT WHEN THE SUPERDELEGATES GET TO VOTE.

HE WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED AS THE JUDAS, BUT JUST AS JUSAS WAS A BETRAYAL THE ONE JESUS BETRAYED RAISED ABOVE THE FACT.
AND H.R. CLINTON WILL ALSO RISE ABOVE THE BETRAYAL AND BECOME THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY

GOD BLESS AMERICA, NOT GOD DAM AMERICA

Richardson must have been paid off like the numerous superdelegates that Obama has been getting lots of money from. However Richardson decided to join Obama after taking money only after the Texas primary not before as Obama had planned.

Obama will buy this presidency and use even his own family members for his political cause.

Obama does all this and we are not even in the general election yet? Imagine what he will deal away as president.

This is the type person Hillary considers a friend. It is scary the depth of depravity these people will stoop to win the White House. And yet, they can't release their tax returns on April 15 like they said. These people can not be trusted with the truth, much less the White House.

He is not the only one that was outraged. Richardson insulted the Hispanic (Mexican-American) community, not only in his state,but also my home state of Texas by betraying the Clinton's. Bill Clinton
made the man what he is today and for him to betray that trust is not only disgusting but insulting to his constituents who voted 2-1 for Hillary. If Barak and his advisor think that we are going to vote for him because a half Hispanic is now on board, they are absolutely mistaken. We will vote for McCain if HIllary is not the candidate in November.

James Carville is profound in comparing Governor Richardson to Judas. He is forthright, honest, and I agree that Governor Richardson is not thinking in the best interest of the Democratic party if he chooses to support Obama.......and let us be honest here, what about all the degrading comments being made by the Obama campaign staff......it is necessary to hear any comments whatsoever regarding Monica's blue dress? Shame on Obama and his entire campaign staff

Wow! This is so very much why we can't elect Hillary.
We really don't need anymore people with this kind of an attitude involved in our government.
This "old school politics" of nastiness has really outlived its uselfullness.

James Carvile only knows how to attack on a personal basis to try to tear down his "opponents". He should be barred from public comments. We don't need his type of destructive , personal comments.

This guy must be insane if he thinks Hillary is Jesus.

Billary Clinton is a Judas for throwing their base under the bus.

This is typical of Clintonites. They can be repelled however, when confronted with facts. CNN should report on Sen. Clinton's experience as it pertains to Bosnia, NAFTA, and the Irish peace talks. In short, she lied. Try reporting that.

coming from a non dem, what is so wrong with what the carville said. Not that Richardson is a bad person, but what he did was pretty shady, and being in the public eye like that Richardson cant complain when people talk about his decisions.

Since when is telling the truth a political liability? I thought that stigma was reserved for lies, like when you say one thing to the public and another to Canadian officials anxious about NAFTA.

I LOVE the Rajin' Cajin. Corporal Cue Ball, etc.

But what does "I got one in the wheelhouse" mean?

Voters..... who represents AMERICA best?
Americans are awesome when we are united!
Obama/Edwards08 Si Se Puede

Nothing wrong with being on a winning side and having further career aspirations. Sour grapes Carville?

Good for you Mr. Carville!!!!!

GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carville really needs to chill. Richardson had the backbone to make what he considered the right choice, even if it meant hurting his friends. He's done what is in the best interests of the country, and I respect him for that.

what a surprise from a clinton supporter u back someone who wants to unify the party and win your a "judas" amazing.

Carville is right, Richardson is a Judas. But who cares about his endorsement – he is a loser. Hillary is better off without him.
Go Hillary!

This race and the media coverage is getting stupid!! Will somebody please end it now!!!
