[1]…why did he move out of the state when Kaine was Governor?
Carville and wife Mary Matalin, moved their family to New Orleans in 2008 when Kaine was Governor. Sure Louisiana is home, but unlike many of us, Carville was able to escape the Kaine administration.
The latest in a long line of liberal cheerleaders, Carville’s laughable email sent out on behalf of Kaine says:
Tim Kaine is the guy for the job. I lived in Virginia while he was Governor, and he helped Virginia get through the worst economic conditions since the Great Depression — and still managed to make critical investments in education in order to help Virginians compete in the global economy.
Really James?
Funny, FactCheck.org [2] points out that the Forbes ratings came after Kaine had only been in office for seven months and even Kaine said at the time that the ratings were from “a real bipartisan tradition in Virginia of wanting to have a strong business climate.”
As Jason Johnson pointed out yesterday [3], During the Kaine Administration, tuition in Virginia’s public college system rose 30 percent.
Seems James is also forgetting that Virginia lost 65,000 jobs during Kaine’s last year as part-time Governor.
Tim Kaine tried to raise taxes every year he was Governor, and in the end he couldn’t even get his own party to support his tax hiking budget. It died 97-0 in the House of Delegates.
So maybe James is forgetting how bad things really were under Part-time Governor Kaine and why he really chose to move out of state.
Or maybe he just had to pee [4].
