Under the caveat that anything can happen in politics nowadays, Axios CEO and co-founder Jim VandeHei said Friday he could see Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe as a Democratic presidential candidate in 2020.
"If I had to put money from my own pocket on a candidate right now, it would be on Terry McAuliffe of Virginia," said VandeHei who helped launch Axios in January after leaving Politico, which he also co-founded and turned into a political powerhouse. Axios has quickly gained a reputation as a place for Washington-related scoops.

Lord help us. The only thing McAuliffe has done in VA, thankfully, is keeping the seat warm.

McAwful never told the truth in his life. He is completely sleazy.
A perfect Democrat.

Leave it to the ‘Rats to find the one person out there who may be more venal than Hillary herself, and to promote said person as some kind of party savior.

Thankfully, McAuliffe’s liberal scheming has been thwarted by a GOP super-majority in the Virginia House of Delegates and a GOP majority in the Senate. The one that has really been harmful is the Attorney General, Mark Herring.

Because the Dems don’t have a deep bench.
Just a collection of dunce chairs.

Yeah, go ahead and nominate another Clinton Crony criminal. He’s still under investigation by the Feds for accepting foreign donations, not to mention all the other sleazy dirty dealing he’s been involved with over the years. Nominate him, and you’re just nominating another scandal-riddled Clinton. And he’ll lose like she did too.

Trump will tell Terry on the second debate: “You should be in jail.” Trump should make good on his promises, first.
Why is Hillary Clinton still walking around, free?
