Terry McAuliffe Makes VP Pick: Not Hillary

[Segami]

".....The former national chairman of the Democratic Party who ran Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign this year told 200 Democratic activists in Fairfax County Tuesday that Virginia Governor Tim Kaine would be his party's best choice as Barack Obama's vice presidential running mate.

...

McAuliffe was adamant in his recommendation of Kaine as the Democratic Party's vice presidential nominee Tuesday, although he stressed to the News-Press after his speech, which included an informal half-hour question and answer period, that the ultimate choice will be Obama's very personal one.

However, the fact that he proposed Kaine over his own candidate and long-time friend, Hillary Clinton, suggested that he knows the Clinton option is off the table.

1. The good thing is, Obama knows better than to listen to anything McAwful has to say.

2. Pretty ' ballsy ' of him to publicly recommend Kaine over Hilary. He must know something. I'm sure

Obama won't be taking ANY cues from McAuliffe anytime soon.

3. Well that settles it.

If McAauliffe (sp) recommends Kaine I'd sure as hell stay away from that choice.
