carville speaks

Over at TPM cafe, Josh Micah Marshall interviewed James Carville to try to get the inside scoop on the Novak breakdown. Turns out, Carville is as much in the dark about what happened and why as anyone is.

In general, Carville seemed to have the same reaction when I talked to him -- a mix of genuinely not knowing what to make of the whole thing, mixed with bemusement and maybe some latent hints of laughter -- that he does on the tape as Henry gamely tries to continue the interview as though nothing had happened.
