Carville: Crockett broke ‘first rule of politics’ with Senate campaign launch

Carville criticized Crockett for focusing on herself rather than voters, urging her to align with Democrats in competitive districts to end Republicans' 30-year statewide winning streak.

  • On Thursday, James Carville, longtime Democratic strategist and podcast host, accused Rep. Jasmine Crockett of violating the `first rule of politics` on his Politics War Room podcast after her Monday Senate bid to unseat Sen. John Cornyn.
  • On Monday, Rep. Jasmine Crockett launched her Senate bid with the slogan `Texas Tough` and cited internal campaign polling showing she could win, though results remain unreleased as of Friday.
  • Carville argued on the podcast that Rep. Jasmine Crockett is "well-educated" and energetic but her run feels "a lot more about herself" and warned "talking incessantly" does not win elections; he added she can still succeed by gaining Democrats who have favored voting Republican.
  • Public polls show mixed views of Crockett, with one poll showing 40% unfavorable as Rep. Colin Allred dropped out and James Talarico remains in the race.
  • Some Democrats urged Rep. Jasmine Crockett, U.S. Representative , to stay in the House, reflecting intra-party tension over messaging and strategy as Democrats weigh winning statewide in Texas.
