Boy was he good. Your typical "piss on your leg and tell you it's raining" type guy. It was so funny to watch him everyday saying, "We're behind in both pledged and super-delegates, we're behind in the polls and we're $30 million in dept but that's exactly where we want to be and it's going exactly as planned and go to www.hillaryclinton.com!"

I love that guy!

2. Not being sarcastic, no shit, I love that guy
He's already recommended a different VP than Clinton and I'll bet he's already looking for a book deal for "Why Hillary lost and why it wasn't my fault".

4. He's like the bad guys in pro-wrestling
He doesn't believe in half the shit he's saying but he thinks everyone else is stupid enough to believe it and a lot of people did. He's such an opportunist I'm surprised he's not a republican.

5. "Why Hillary lost and why it wasn't my fault"
First he has to write about the 2002 congressional elections and the 2004 presidential election with a similar title.

I'm not going to miss McAuliffe. I'm not going to miss losing to the fascist wing of the Republican Party, either.

18. Isn't there already
A couple of those books coming out, "Why Hillary lost and it wasn't my fault"! One by Penn, another by Bill Clinton, and I think even Hillary is writing one! :evilgrin:

6. What's the purpose of bringing this up?
Couldn't bash Hillary so you needed to vent on her surrogate? Bitter comments.

10. Hillary is not our nominee. McCauliffe is of no importance
other than to bitch about something that is vestering in you and something to slap any x Hillary supporters with.

13. Let's look on the bright side:
After TerryMac's stunning performance in the 2004 election, when Kerry had to litterally get nose-to-nose with him and tell him in clear, concise terms at a volume where he would be sure to get substance and nuance that unless he started spending DNC money to counter the SBVT, he would be gone, Terry has been a degraded brand. Now, after this buffoon-like performance, complete with bottle of rum, I would have to say that what juice he has left is the juice that splashes back on him when he takes a piss.

Face it: In all areas but corporate fundraising, TerryMac is grossly incompetent.

16. Does anyone remember Global Crossing?
"DNC Chair Caught in Global Crossing Scandal
Judicial Watch Investigates McCauliffe’s Link to Bankrupt Company

When Enron filed for bankruptcy, the largest in our nation’s history, Clinton crony Terry McAuliffe was among the first to cast his verbal stones. The DNC Chairman criticized greedy Enron executives for hurting the “small people,” calling for a full investigation. He lashed out at the wealthy special interests. He questioned the company’s ties to the Bush Administration. Armed with what he perceived to be a winning campaign issue against Republicans and their popular president, McAuliffe was relentless. Ironically, the Bush Administration’s cozy ties with Enron are subject to JW’s investigation.

So why has the Democratic Party’s most spotlight hungry mouthpiece faded from view? Two words. Global Crossing.

While the SEC and FBI begin to probe the questionable accounting practices of telecommunications giant Global Crossing, Ltd., which went belly up on January 28, Judicial Watch has launched a full investigation into Terry McAuliffe’s ties to the company.

In what is an unprecedented case of political profiteering, McAuliffe turned a $100,000 initial investment in the company into $18 million in less than a year and a half—a nifty 18,000% profit. According to the New York Times, McAuliffe made millions more trading the stock and options after the company went public in 1998."
