Carney: ‘It’s Not Going To Be A Good Year For Democrats’

Posted by | September 14, 2014 14:13 | Filed under: Politics Top Stories


Now that Jay Carney is no longer a presidential press secretary but, rather, a CNN commentator, he is saying things he wouldn’t say as a presidential press secretary.

“It’s not going to be a good year for Democrats by definition,” Carney said. “The sixth year is always particularly bad for a president’s party. You couple that with the fact so many seats are defended by Democrats in red states where Mitt Romney did very well against the president, double-digits in most cases, and there’s no outcome in November that anybody could say would be great for Democrats, except for barely holding onto

Carney added that this by no means meant the GOP was in the clear. “The problem for Republicans if they win is Americans begin to think that ‘we hate Congress’ and it is now clear that one party is in control of Congress.”

    And he will be wrong. The Democrats will either gain one seat in the Senate or stay the same. The House is still unclear. Check out the Princeton Academic website for an accurate forecast. But, if by some chance Carney is correct, then it’s their own damn fault. There is so many positives to run on and for some reason the DNCC is to run away from them because of Obama. What’s needed is a complete change of leadership in the DNCC, DSCC and DCCC.
