Terry McAuliffe, former chairman of the Democratic National Committee and now-chairman of Senator Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, has been mysteriously caught in three photographs smiling and holding an Obama for president sign with supporters in Washington state -- according to a blog at the Chicago Tribune.

The Clinton campaign has not contested their authenticity. An email sent to Clinton's spokesman Monday was not returned. McAuliffe is said to be generous in posing for photographs.

The photos were acquired by the Chicago Tribune's Swamp blog.

"What's really interesting, as you can see from these photos, is that McAuliffe posed with supporters of Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign and that a beaming McAuliffe helped them hold up their large Obama signs for the camera," Swamp author Frank James wrote Monday morning. "McAuliffe is wearing his Clinton button but it's dwarfed by the Obama sign he's holding.

5. "The Clinton campaign has not contested their authenticity."

From the article.

4. What's the big deal? He's just supporting the Democratic nominee.

[Auntie Bush]

6. I'm sure he's smiling because he sees it as a big joke!

That man has a great sense of humor.

[tekisui]

9. He did this joke with no less than 3 Obama Supporters.

And seemed to be enjoying himself in each one.

18. He's fun when he is drunk.

7. Doctored

Terry has his Hillary button on. People will do anything to put down Hillary. Anything.Then they expect us to vote for Obama. :eyes:

[tekisui]

10. It's not doctored. He posed with at least three Obama Supporters.

The Clinton Camp is not denying that they are real.

13. You gonna vote for McCain cuz someone on the internets pissed you off?

Or will you just sit this one out?

whatever...:rofl:

[TheWraith]

19. The Clinton campaign has not contested the authenticity of the photos. Read the article.

Otherwise, you come off as a sour-grapes grump.

11. I have lost count of the number of threads on this story--over and over. Got a point?

[tekisui]

14. The point is, it's hilarious!!

Obviously Terry has a great sense of humor.

Not sure how Hillary takes it.

[Wetzelbill]

12. He probably was being nice

He seems like a friendly guy, I don't think it's a big deal. Only a complete asshole would have a meltdown and make a person, who was excited to take picture with him, put down a sign. I don't know, I guess we'll find out soon enough if they are absolutely authentic, he'll have to answer it at some point. But this has been posted over and over and over.

It is kind of funny though, lol. :) He looks so happy in them. :)

15. JUDAS!!!

JUDAS I say!!
seriously, that's pretty funny.
must be a really nice guy.

20. hehehe, nt

16. Oh, my. Tres embarassing. I bet McAuliff gets beaten like a red-headed step-child over this. n/t

17. A lot of DU posters could take this to heart

Supporting one candidate does not mean that the other, or their supporters are your enemy. We're all aiming to reach hte same place, even if the particular roads we take might vary somewhat. Terry McAuliffe apparently understands that, even while working for Clinton, he can express support for Obvama, as well.

Both good candidates, both fully Democratic, both possibly excellent presidential choices.
