I could swear I've heard her call him that. Back a few years ago she co-hosted some short-lived talk show on cable (can't recall the name) and the logo was a snake with Carville's head. That's when she explained it, I think. She uses it as a term of endearment. They have a strange relationship, IMO.
Okay :) I will admit that I am surprised if she said that, but you are probably right that their marriage is a little unusual.
Yeah, I think you are right about her little nickname for him.
I don't know how they do it. My brother's wife is a flaming lib and we can't figure them out either. I couldn't be married to someone who I didn't agree with the majority of their political beliefs.
Mary Matalin is a saint, I would smother him with a pillow, if it were me!
