MANCHESTER, N.H. —
James Carville, the veteran political strategist known as the architect of former President Bill Clinton’s 1992 presidential campaign, is formally endorsing Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet on Monday, calling Bennet “uniquely suited for New Hampshire.”
Carville, nicknamed the “Ragin’ Cajun” for his outspoken, mince-no-words style, will campaign with Bennet in the Granite State ahead of the Feb. 11 first-in-the-nation primary, the Bennet campaign said in releasing the endorsement exclusively to WMUR.
Carville has been praising Bennet in public comments for several months.
“This is John Kennedy recloned,” Carville said last summer. “You can’t get any better than this guy.”
“I'm for Michael Bennet. I'm not even being cute about it," Carville said in December. "He’s going to succeed by his resolve, by his knowledge, by his depth, by his politeness, his humanity. That's what people want."
Now, the endorsement is official.
“The best way to beat Donald Trump is to show you’re not him in any way, shape or form,” Carville said in a statement provided Monday by the Bennet campaign.
“Senator Bennet has less in common with Donald Trump than any human being in the United States when it comes to worldview, priorities and demeanor. Senator Bennet is the opposite of Trump and is the best Democrat to take him on. And Senator Bennet would be the best President of the United States, which is why I endorsed his campaign.
“I think Senator Bennet is uniquely suited for New Hampshire,” Carville added. “It’s a historical fact that people like him do well there. I have faith in his strategy of going from town hall to town hall, from living room to living room. He’s putting in the work. Michael Bennet will surprise people.”
Bennet’s campaign pointed out that Clinton was “another candidate from the middle of the country who bet big on the New Hampshire primary. Clinton’s success in the Granite State made him the ‘Comeback Kid,’ which became a decisive step toward him winning the Democratic nomination.”
