- James Carville concedes he was wrong about Kamala Harris’ chances: ‘It will always be the economy, stupid’ (foxnews.com)
Democratic strategist James Carville has admitted that he was mistaken about the election. He previously predicted that Vice President Kamala Harris would win, but now believes that the economy was the deciding factor.
Carville argues that Democrats have lost the economic narrative and need to win it back. He believes that Americans feel that Democrats are not in touch with their economic struggles. He urges Democrats to focus on economic progress and use new media to get their message out.
Carville also suggests that Harris lost because she failed to differentiate herself from President Biden. He points to her interview on “The View,” where she was asked how she would be different from Biden and could not provide a clear answer.
