This election has turned the country into a tar pit from which we will never escape, but it did give us one thing that has brought me great joy. That thing is political pundit James Carville’s busted-ass spectacles.
The Ragin’ Cajun has been a frequent guest on MSNBC during pre- and post-debate shows, and every time he pops up on the screen I get a kick out of his extremely goofy eyeglasses situation.
After the first debate, Carville was actually wearing perfectly normal and straight specs:
