    Money, money, money

    Here's a great political consultant quote:

    Lizza quotes "anti-Deaniac" James Carville thus: "Suppose Harold Ford became chairman of the DNC. How much more money do you think we could raise?"

    He doesn't mention prevailing on policies or winning elections. He talks about "how much more money" the Dems could raise. And of course, since he's a [nominally Democratic] campaign consultant, some of that money might flow to him!

    I followed the money ... to Carville's wallet.
