Election result leaves McAuliffe in limbo

Terry McAuliffe can be in charge of the Democrats for his lifetime, as far as I am concerned. His run has been very, very good for republicans.

I heard this morning that he was looking very hard for a place to land to celebrat some sort of victory.

As you know a Rebublican victory is really a defeat in their eyes.

[friendly]

Democrats across the country rallied to support Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Terry McAuliffe yesterday.

Complete Male Cow Feces! Never was there a more bogus and planted story to protect Wicked Witch Hillary's crooked little winged monkey!

[Mark]

Go, Terry, go!

[Cicero]

I looked through this article as closely as my stomach would allow, and as far as I could find, DNC vicechairman Mark Brewer is the ONLY Democrat quoted by name who thinks McAuliffe did a good job.

This, although the article says "Nevertheless, DNC leaders, members of Congress and party officials from Alaska to New Mexico to North Carolina said McAuliffe could have done little" to prevent these electoral losses.

Really? Or maybe hillary has an FBI file on Peter Savodnik, the writer of this article. I know she has a LOT of them--far more than the 900 that made the news back then. I'm a believer in the theory that she and bill left office with ALL the FBI and CIA files on everybody--a whole mainframe computer's worth of dirt on everybody of any importance at all.

Time to make a site "Save Terry McCauliffe's Job at DNC!" He is the best person at DNC for Republicans in a long time!

The article didn't mention that McCauliff's handler, Bill Clinton was a paid speaker at a fund raiser in Seattle this week, that lost money instead of raking it in.

Those defending MacScumbag just do not want to face what is happening --- he is there to do the bidding for the Clintons. It is always about the Clintons.

Interestingly, he spent election night celebrating with Rendell and newly reelected Philadelphia mayor John Street. Street is a target of an FBI probe in Philadelphia where Street's wife along with spouses of other Street cronies own restaurant concessions at Philadelphia airport through a company managed by Street's brother Milton. It is big time pay to play with no bids involved. Street may well be indicted along with family members. Maybe if McAuliffe didn't play with such obviously corrupt dems, the party might be in better shape. But then consider who procured McAuliffe's current position. Street, Clinton...cut from the same cloth.

[nopardons]

Ya got that right. LOL

[Jorge]

Yes, I loved his spin on the 2002 elections as good news for the Democrat party.

I mean after 2 years of saying Jeb Bush was toast....

Terry McAwful is worse than a used car salesman.

He's Clinton's boy. And they deserve him.

[Uncle Miltie]

Amplification: "Democrats and Republicans across the country rallied to support Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Terry McAuliffe yesterday, a day after the party lost governorships in Kentucky and Mississippi and less than four weeks after losing the gubernatorial race in California."

[Only1choice____Freedom]

McAuliffe's current position. Street, Clinton...cut from the same cloth.

You mean ripped from the same rag.

[Terry Mross]

This article says campaign finance reform was "opposed by both parties". If that was true it wouldn't have passed.

Isn't if funny to watch the dems blame their own policies for their defeats then turn right around and do it again.

[Faraday]

Let me be the first to go on the record that the dramatic losses suffered by the demoncrats in 2004 will not be Terry McAuliffe's fault either. If fact, if the Democrat Party would collapse altogether, it would be the fault of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, Ashcroft, etc., not McAuliffe.

[listenhillary]

If da ho's still bringing in da dough...

I ain't gwoin ta kick 'm out is I?

[dufekin]

As for a convention site, if I were supporting the Dems (which I might, if Zell's the eventual nominee and he picks a nice veep like Rumsfeld), I'd recommend Albuquerque. Or someplace in Arizona, Colorado, Nevada. Avoid Arkansas like the plague, but Raleigh, Charlotte, Winston-Salem, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, or even Richmond, Virginia Beach, Birmingham would be great southern locations. Of course, there's always the "close" states: Jacksonville, Des Moines, Tampa, Tallahassee, Miami, Orlando, Milwaukee, Detroit, .... Here's the point: chose somewhere in "enemy" territory (or likely enemy territory) but where you're likely to win. Then again, after 2004, if some freepers are right, Burlington, Worcester, and Boston will be enemy territory--even for Dean.

I LOVE the sound of democrat excuses in the morning (after). After all, remember that an excuse is always WHY YOU FAILED!

>> Terry McAuliffe can be in charge of the Democrats for his lifetime, as far as I am concerned. His run has been very, very good for republicans.

Terry McAuliffe is a true friend of patriots and friends of liberty. His tireless effort to undermine and weaken the Democrat party will go down in history.

HUBRIS!
