I thought this was a pretty interesting look at Carville and his life. Even at 78 he still has his hands in the mix as a Democratic strategist. I didn't like his comments about "loud" women (or whatever term he used) but he was certainly right about Biden in this election. It wasn't entirely clear to me where his wife stood in regards to her place in the current Republican party. It was also interesting that she said in regards to their relationship that there was political strife but not marital strife, so it suggests that she isn't a shrinking violet in regards to her political opinions, but I am glad to see the marriage is still going
