Terry McAuliffe campaigning for the public option
Over the last few days, we have been working with blogs all over the country through the Blue America PAC to raise money for members of Congress who have pledged to vote against any bill that doesn't include a public option for health care reform. No Virginians have yet insisted on a public option in this bill.

It's time to bring out the carrots!

Any thoughts on this? I may not like the guy but he's well connected with many of the people we need to persuade.

3. Wave a $20 in front of Terry's nose and he'll campaign for cannibalism.
The man is a shill.

I'm in favor of a public option, but McAuliffe's involvement stinks to high heaven.

4. Terry: What's wrong with cannibalism? People have to eat right? Are you for people starving?

6. My gut instinct is that any "public option" that Terry supports
will be as McUseless as he is. You would think that dumb piece of shit would have taken the hint from the VA primary and got it through his empty skull that nobody likes his fucking pathetic corporate blowing ass.

7. Hope it's more successful than his last campaign -
- he didn't manage to convince many Virginians then.

8. Good! I wouldn't turn down his help.
I can't begin to analyse Terry McAuliff but stranger evolutions have happened.
