We're belatedly noting that reptilian political "consultant" James "Alien" Carville and his equally hideous spouse Mary "Quite Contrary" Matalin are departing from their digs in Alexandria, VA to New Orleans. New Orleans' loss is Alexandria's gain. Their home is up for sale at $4.5 million, having purchased the home a while back for $3.9 million. Here's hoping the depressed market will ensure that they take a major loss on the sale.
They always played the argumentative spouses on TV, but both shared the same gutter instincts in politics, one Rethug and one Democrat. Although we would hope that these two would never threaten to crack another Meet the Press or CNN camera lens again, their nasty approach to politics and the mainstream media's fascination with it, are likely to remain.
