The Democratic strategist called it a 'shortcoming' of the party to think 'everybody has a seat at the table.'
NASHVILLE, TENNESSEE - OCTOBER 26: James Carville speaks onstage during the 2019 Politicon at Music City Center on October 26, 2019 in Nashville, Tennessee.
“I would always tell people in the campaigns: If you want a democracy after the election, you have to have an autocracy before the election,” Carville said in a Playbook Deep Dive interview. “If you have one creative person with an IQ of 150, that’s great. If you have three with an IQ of 150, the IQ is not 450. It’s 50,” he said. “So, I just believe that on a creative project, you just gotta have one person in charge and kind of trust them. Because if you start switching crap around, it just never works.”
If you're in a coalition, and you’re comfortable, you’re not in a coalition,” Carville said, adding that the Democratic Party has supporters across the political spectrum.
