Chester James Carville Jr. (born October 25, 1944) is an American political consultant, author, and television pundit who has strategized for Democratic candidates for public office in the United States and for international politicians in at least 23 countries abroad. A prominent media figure, he has frequently appeared on cable news programs and talk shows as a commentator on U.S. politics.

Nicknamed the "Ragin' Cajun", Carville led successful state campaigns before gaining national attention as a lead strategist in Bill Clinton's winning 1992 presidential campaign. He also played a principal role crafting in the campaigns of several Democratic presidential candidates, including Massachusetts Senator John Kerry in 2004, New York Senator Hillary Clinton in 2008, and Colorado Senator Michael Bennet in 2020. He is married to longtime Republican political consultant Mary Matalin.
