Disgruntlement chic: James Carville’s footwear message
PUMAS, of course (hat tip: reader Brian). Disunity is the new black:
***
Speaking of PUMAs:
At a meeting of the Democratic women’s caucus Tuesday, 74-year-old Carol Anderson of Vancouver, Wash., a former Hillary volunteer, stood in the back of the room in a Hillary T-shirt and hat signed by Hillary and “Nobama” button and booed every time any of the women speakers mentioned Obama’s name.
She’s voting for McCain and had nothing nice to say about the Obamas. What about the kids, I asked. “Adorable,” she agreed. Well, I said, Michelle raised them.
“I think her mother does,” Anderson shot back, adding: “I wonder if Michelle would give the Queen one of her little knuckle punches?”
Ouch.

It’s a good thing he’s wearing them. He’ll probably be running out of there right after Bill’s speech tonight.
Nice pants….can you get those any higher their Jimbo?
The Clintons and their supporters are about as subtle as a brick through a church window. 18 million votes and no place at the table? Hill and Bill must be loving the Biden bounce. McCain 46%, Obama 44%.
that james is such a kidder. i noticed his shoes when he did the interview, but not being a shoe expert didn’t catch it was a pair of PUMA brand sneeks. he’s always been loyal, and i think he smells a loser. i don’t see him on the obama campaign.
Oh, c’mon now, I’m SURE Carville is fully supporting SNObama. He just picked some sensible shoes for a long night of vapid conventioneering.
Hey, look at the girl he married. He’s got class. I have for some reason always liked him. He’s an operative, but he has a sense of humor. That’s refreshing.
Why do old guys wear black socks with sneakers? Dude, you make a million bucks a year, go out and get some white socks. I thought is was racist to wear black socks anyway.
I’ve seen better looking bowling shoes.
I have a feeling unity isn’t going to happen.
What’s the significance of Pumas?
Party Unity My A$$ = clinton supporters.
Yellow stripes, yellow dog?
Never mind, I googled it.
I’m not a fan of ol’ Snakehead either (I don’t know how Mary Matalin can tolerate him), but when you’re sitting down on a stool like that, pants are going to ride up.
The shoes? Not a good choice. And those pearls? Oh wait a minute…now I’m quoting Airplane…
Speaking of symbols and hidden meanings…Obama’s speech site is going to resemble an ancient Greek temple. How fitting, since Obama resembles that Greek of myth, Narcissus.
You beat to it.
I’m suprise he hasn’t taken off yet.
beat me to it.
I had the chance to meet James once and chat with him for just second at an airport. If he is sending a message he does not need to do so secretively via his tennis shoes. His mouth works just fine and he is not shy about getting his point of view out there. No secretive method required.
Let hope the PUMA is hard to put back in the cage!
Skeletor Carville normally gets on my nerves, but the shoes thing was sly.
Well, as a man who is 58, I would never wear athletic shoes with dress pants, or high water trousers or black socks with athletic shoes. But, then, I’m a Conservative.
I always give credit where it is due, no matter how much I dislike someone. Carville sporting the Pumas was not likely an accident, & is pretty darn funny…
Now with that said, he’s still an orbital Moonbat..
Maybe its just me, but doesn’t Carville resemble Gollum from the “Lord of the Rings” fame? Except for the shoes…I swear its him!
http://foreverloyal.wordpress.com/2008/01/02/pathetic/gollum/
Most Democrats have Gollum’s personality flaws, that’s for sure!
I’m torn. Carville is crazy, but I’d have a beer with him because it wouldn’t be dull in the least. He’s a smart guy – just on the other side of the political fence.
Having said that, this is hilarious. Go Carville!
He also rexembles the dude on 300, Ephialtes. ok I’m going back to work now.

Viva La Revolution!
I thought those were bowling shoes.
His pants didn’t ride up, he pulled them up. The man annoys me, but that is funny!
Very Forrest Gump-y
i too have a grudging admiration of james. you know where he stands, just like his wife, and he never mealy mouths about. i may disagree with him 99% of the time, but like bob beckel, he isn’t a party hack who would say anything to anybody he thinks they want to hear. that’s dean’s, reid’s and nancy’s job.
Hmm… I happen to like his shoes. They are clearly wrong for the setting and the clothes but I think they’re pretty cool on their own. Plus, they seem to match his posture perfectly.
It’s not like James Carville was the king of subtlety before all of this. I think it was a big fat intentional ‘up yours’ to the Obama people, and I think it’s hysterical.
On a side note, you can rail him for the black socks and high-waters, but you must remember that the man is from down here in Louisiana. You should consider yourself lucky that he’s wearing shoes at all (many here would rather not).
PUMA oooooh Cat Fight!
Were any of you aware that Carville is a Jarhead?…. I think in the reserves but a Jarhead nontheless…lol
Just in on Fox:
Bill Clinton to Skip Obama Speech at Invesco Field
hahahahaha PUMA!
And all this time I thought he was a hammerhead.
So did I. I have, however, seen better looking ones.
To Rev Wolf: PUMA (Party Unity My Ass) backers of Hillary Clinton. I had to google it myself, must have missed that one earlier.
I Absolutely Love It!
Yes, and this one, too…
Vive la Révolution!
I can’t stand James Carville, but that is some funny stuff.
Notice that:
1. his pants are short
2. his legs are out (rather than tucked in like the others)
3. and the PUMAs.
Mwuahahahaha! Take that, Obama.
I used to wear PUMAs, those are cool shoes. I preferred the black ones with the red stripe. Unfortunately, they didn’t last very long, their soles wore out faster than any other shoe I’ve owned.
1966-1968 two years??? I would like to know why only two years? And was he a grunt or support?
Errah, forget Carville’s shoes, Why did Pelosi where a white Chairman Mao frock?
I never trusted Carville or his wife. Honestly I was hoping they were the ones involved in the Plame game.
I’d swear Carville just came in from a hard day of clam digging. Mary must not have seen him getting dressed that morning.
Would it kill the guy to sit up straight, as well? Maybe he thinks no one will see him if he slouches below the other commenters.
Back in the 60s (and later) 2 year enlistments were common. Especially if drafted.
And all Jarheads are grunts… at heart, if not in assigned position.
I disagree with Carville about a lot of things, but I like him as a person because (a) he is consistant and loyal in his beliefs, (b) like me, he is a Catholic and a Democrat and probably most importantly, he is a runner, as I am. I also love to wear casual clothes to work and hate suits, obviously, Carville does too. Good for him!
To coin a phrase from ol’ Brother James, You know it amazing what you can find when you drag a hundred dollar bill through a Foot Locker store.
I’ll bet you folks still believe in the tooth fairy
What’s this? There is no tooth fairy????
I agree with Dennis miller. Carville looks like and acts like a mad yapping Chiwawa.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKGPvul8FXc
Ilovemycountry, sure we believe in the tooth fairy. Somebody took his picture while he was trying to levitate the U.S. Mint. Just in case you can’t pick him out, he’s the one in the pointy hat.
There is so a toothfairy. They post on this very blog.
Errah Is Wolffy just a torso or a ventriloquit’s dummy? I don’t see any leggs??!! If it was the latter, I’d expect to see Geo Soros’s arm in the frame. errah.
What can I say but “feel the love” from the Clinton camp. The real show is going to be over who McCain picks as VP and how he treats conservatives from this point on….
That is why he has the monicker of “Snakehead”
When you get old you just put on anything you can find…
Carville is funny, and this has to be intentional.
Hey what’s up with all this jazz about black socks??? I don’t even own a pair of white socks…I even wear all black knee highs when I run…what does this mean?? Oh maybe its because I’m one of those anarchist libertarians.
Teddy, you can’t see Georgie’s arm because it’s up Wolf’s rectum so he can make him mouth the words he wants Wolfboy to say.
…that others are snickering…
and “hee hawing”. If the
shoesock fits…Oh, give Carville a break. He’s a coonass, after all. It’s the only likeable thing about him. And that’s “chihuahua” – they’re Mexican, not Chinese.
snicker all they want i’m laughing as i pass them.
I can’t dislike Carville because he is cajun, and he is married to Mary Matalin. What she was thinking, who knows. Carville has that alpha male thing going but don’t know how long that would balance the leftist talking points. Their dinner conversations must be eye-opening.
Glad to see someone from my hometown doing her job crashing the DNC and disappoitning the coming of the Messiah.
Hmmm…Could it be that Mary Matalin has a hand in this? What if she dared James to wear the mismatch to emphasize his disdain of the proceedings? After all, they must join forces once in a while!
