Gov. Terry McAuliffe of Virginia in 2020. Discuss

[Vidal]

I think he could be a player in 2020 and have a chance to win.

What do you think?

[VMA131Marine]

2. No!...Just No!

Too much baggage. I'd much rather see O'Malley give it another shot. Or Sen Chris Murphy of Connecticut. Joe Biden would be a better choice, though I think his age would hurt his chances .

5. baggae you say???

At least this much baggage

[lisa58]

3. Elizabeth Warren....

...Terry McAuliffe is just going to get beaten up by the Clinton shadow arguments that have been argued for so long that are believed by too many independents. Warren can 'marry' the Bernie supporters with the Clinton supporters which will be a devastating combination

[leftofcool]

6. No to Liz Warren

[phylny]

15. Agree here, too. n/t

[ollie10]

27. Agreed n/t

[mvd]

30. Yes to Warren!

McAuliffe just isn't very inspiring.

[WhiteTara]

4. His baggage is a full set of Touristor luggage,

He would be destroyed along with the Democratic efforts.

[Vinca]

31. That's what I thought although I can't remember what it was exactly.

[WhiteTara]

32. MCI

7. A certain liberal Senator from Ohio?

If he wins re-election next year he would tough to beat.

[irisblue]

12. He and a State Supreme Ct Justice are the ONLY Dems in high level office in Ohio

The newish state party chief, David Pepper, is recruiting new younger down ballot talent, but that will take a few yrs. If Sen. Brown leaves Ohio, this state will be blood red damn quick.

19. Here's The Problem With Sherrod Brown

If he ran for President, there's no doubt in my mind that he'd win and win big. He is MY Senator, he's from my hometown, and I haven't met ANYONE here in Ohio who doesn't like him (not even the Republicans will bad-mouth him, at least not that I've heard). The problem is that his wife has threatened to divorce him if he ever runs for President, so you can scratch him off your list. As I've said before, I believe in him so much, that if he ever did run, I'd be willing to work for his campaign. But I don't think it will ever happen.

22. Thanks for the info...to bad

But happy wife, happy life😏

[uponit7771]

23. Dammit, yeah ... president is a family affair

[NewJeffCT]

8. he surprised me in a positive way in VA

I was expecting him to be like a Jim Webb, but he espoused some progressive ideas. That said, I think he has too much baggage from being involved with the Clintons and the DNC over the years.

[Va Lefty]

9. Virginian here agree with NewJeff

He's done a good job here. IMO not worth all the Clinton baggage

[rateyes]

10. I think no.

[Awsi Dooger]

11. He won't get far

Based on his MSNBC appearance today I think McAuliffe plans to run. That surprised me. He doesn't have a real world view of his chances. In a crowded primary field he won't be special enough in resume, personality or argument.

Right now it's easier for me to figure out who won't win the nomination, than who will win.

McAuliffe has done a nice job in Virginia. Too bad the state limits to one term.

[NCTraveler]

13. I wouldnt be opposed to him getting in.

I can’t imagine voting for him in the primary but I think he deliver his own solid message.

[phylny]

14. Virginian here. Liked him as governor, but no. n/t

[StevieM]

16. I like Terry but I don't think he would get the nomination. More likely, the Clinton haters would

take the opportunity to proclaim that his loss was another humiliating defeat for Hillary and enjoy the sound of their own voices as they said it.

I like the governor of Washington, Jay Inslee. And I also like Tom Steyer.

[Vidal]

17. I don't know them

But I will take a look at Inslee and Steyer.

There seem to be a lot of good Democratic potential candidates out there.

I really like Senator Murphy from Connecticut.

[ChoppinBroccoli]

18. The Same Guy Who Drove The DNC Into A Ditch When He Was The Head Of It?

The DNC was a MESS under his leadership.

[Demsrule86]

21. And that means what...he was a great governor.

[Demsrule86]

20. He was a great governor.

[OnDoutside]

24. What is the realistic future for him, in politics ?

[eissa]

25. Depends

How badly do we want to lose again?

Liz Warren, please.

[ollie10]

29. Same question could be asked re: Warren

[mchill]

26. He's too tied up with the Clintons

Vacations together, etc.. That doesn't bother me, personally, but it will be used against him.

[librechik]

28. kill me now n/t
