James Carville Is ‘Scared To Death’ About 2024 Election, Increasingly Doubting Harris

Veteran Democratic Party strategist James Carville told MSNBC’s Ari Melber that he is “sacred to death” about the 2024 Election, adding that the Harris-Walz Campaign needs to be “much more aggressive.”

“The only thing I feel is the election is coming November 5, and I’m scared to death,” Carville said.

“You’re not in a reflective mood?” Melber then followed up, to which Carville replied, “I’m not in a particularly reflective mood right now. I’m very concerned.”

When asked what Kamala Harris should be doing with less than a month to go before Election Day, the veteran political strategist urged the campaign to up the urgency.“She doesn’t have a month left. We’ve got 26 days. Today is gone, and you are going to lose another four in a hurricane. Just subtract that. We’re going to get blank on that. So you’re not going to get much out for the next four days,” he said.

“And everything kind of shuts down the Saturday before the election. So you’re really probably under 20 days that you have to really get a message out. They need to be sharp. They need to be aggressive. They need to stop answering questions and start asking questions.”

He added, “I think she and the whole campaign needs to be much more aggressive and much less passive than they are.”

While the Democratic Party has largely experienced a surge in enthusiasm since President Biden opted to suspend his re-election campaign, Carville has emerged as one of the more skeptical Democrats with a sizable platform. He has taken issue with several aspects of the Harris-Walz Campaign’s messaging, particularly with their focus on January 6.

“They need to sell harder. We need to really sell because you’ve got all of this disinformation, you’re correct, and they’ve got to selectively pick out what it is that they want to talk about. We’ve talked about January 6 ad infinitum, ad nauseam. We’ve been talking about who won the election. Leave it alone,” Carville said during a recent performance on “Morning Joe.”
