McAuliffe Back in Limelight with Email to Supporters

Terry McAuliffe retured to the spotlight after a two month break since his loss in the democratic primary for the Virginia governorship.  During his six month campaign bid as the Democratic gubernatorial candidate McAuliffe often said that he was “more worried about keeping Democrats in power in Virginia than about his own candidacy.” He proved this to be true by supporting Barak Obama as soon as Hillary Clinton conceded the Democratic primary race; and McAuliffe did it again when he threw his considerable political muscle behind Creigh Deeds, after conceding to him their party’s nomination.

Since the June 9th primary McAuliffe has been on the sidelines, that is until early August when he sent an e-mail to all his contacts on his national list of donors and supporters to get behind Creigh Deeds against Bob McDonnell who is the Republican choice for governor of Virginia. A second e-mail followed soon after urging McAuliffe’s supporters to support Democrats running for the Virginia House of Delegates.

McAuliffe wrote, “I’m asking you to join me in helping House Democratic Caucus Chairman Ken Plum raise money to support Democratic House of Delegates candidates throughout the Commonwealth. These candidates need our help.”

Less Than a Month to Go and “Its the Economy” for Virginia

With the election for Governor of Virginia less than a month away, it is time to really focus on what Terry McAuliffe stands for and why McAuliffe is the best person to be the Governor of Virginia. Perhaps the issue of most concern to Virginians, along with the rest of Americans, is the economy. There is fear and worry about the future, and what we do to get the state up and running is not a partisan issue. In the face of rising unemployment, foreclosures of homes and erosion of life savings, an answer must be found which goes beyond Democratic, Republican or Independent.

McAuliffe does not believe that Americans, and especially Virginians, want only a short-term solution which covers over the problem like a band-aid without really solving anything in the long-term. Just as any business needs goals and a vision of where they see themselves in 10, 20, and 30 years along, so too the Commonwealth of Virginia must create a sound business plan to see us into a healthy and prosperous future. McAuliffe sees this plan encompassing all aspects of state government which will get all Virginians back on track.

Email from Terry!

Terry McAuliffe said that he would decide whether to stand for election as governor of Virginia by January 7 when he would let everyone know about his decision. If you go to his site www.terrymcauliffe.com you can sign up to get updates and so on. Apparently he recently sent out a personal video message to all the people registered as his supporters, telling them he would be running for governor!

McAuliffe wants to hear what Virginians want!

Terry McAuliffe is going across Virginia in a quest to find out what it is that Virginians want. As he states on his site, www.terrymcauliffe.com, “I want to know what you think – do you share my vision? What are your ideas and priorities?”

McAuliffe has been spending almost two months getting to know Virginians, hearing what they have to say, learning from their successes and getting to understand their hopes and dreams.

We will just have to wait until January 7 when his big decision whether he runs for Governor of Virginia is made.

McAuliffe can be the next governor.

McAuliffe says that Mark Warner and Tim Kaine were two great Democratic governors of Virginia. So why is McAuliffe considering running? Getting Kaine to go on as governor is an idea, but McAuliffe raises the point that as Gov. Kaine enters his final year as governor, challenges that the next governor will face.

McAuliffe says that these new challenges can be best dealt with by him.

Terry McAuliffe news

Anyone hear anything?

The Elections for President kept us all going for a while, and then there were the celebrations with Barack Obama taking the elections in such a big way, but since then, things have really quietened down – and there were certain areas that I would have thought that we would have heard things about.

Of course there may be lots going on behind the scenes with Terry McAuliffe, but I would like to hear more about him.

The big question is the governorship of Virginia… that was hot news, or rather, hot speculation, but we have heard nothing more about Terry McAuliffe’s plans. The elections aren’t that far away, so I am sure we will find out soon as to who is standing.

With all the news about McAuliffe running for governor, I would have expected more to have appeared in the press lately.
