Carville on Goldwater Suburbanites

I recently saw the HBO documentary Mr. Conservtive: Goldwater on Goldwater. In a clip with the execrable, loathsome lefty James Carville, he is discussing Barry Goldwater‘s supporters [or maybe he was referring to the Goldwater Girls] in the 1964 Republican Presidential campaign (which presumably included Hillary Clinton): “They were very suburban … very white … very … you know, the kind of people I didn’t like very much, frankly.”

Update: Gene Healy’s take on the documentary and the appropriateness of the Daisy ad.
