Obviously you'd prefer an extremist right wing fascist.

The Teaparty is really bringing the GOP down. It may be too late to stop them now but you all should really try. Democrats may take over because Republicans just aren't strong enough to help yourselves.

You're sitting at your computer, but are too lazy to do a five second Google search of his name, while at the same time wanting us your opinion seriously. Of course, I've read enough from you to know not to take anything you say seriously.

A political insider, a money man who made millions off his political connections. this man should never be elected to any political office what an embarrassment if he were..liberals love him

Federal City National Bank

In 1985, McAuliffe helped found the Federal City National Bank, a small bank based in Washington, D.C.[5] In January 1988, when he was 30 years old, the bank’s board elected McAuliffe chairman, making him the youngest elected chairman of a federally chartered bank in the history of the United States.[6]

The bank loaned $125,000 to a political action committee that supported Richard Gephardt's presidential campaign. McAuliffe told The New York Times that he abstained from voting on the loan because he was also the Gephardt campaign's finance chairman.[7] The bank also provided loans to former U.S. Representative Tony Coelho and the then-Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Jim Wright.[8]

In 1991, McAuliffe helped to negotiate a merger with Credit International Bank (then under the management of Republican Richard V. Allen), which he called his "greatest business experience".[8] McAuliffe went on to become vice chairman of the newly merged bank, leading to questions from shareholders that he was given special treatment, which Allen denied.[8][9]

American Pioneer Savings Bank

In 1979, McAuliffe met Richard Swann, a lawyer who was in charge of fundraising for Jimmy Carter's presidential campaign in Florida. In 1988, McAuliffe married Swann's daughter, Dorothy.

In the late 1980s, Swann's finances collapsed, entangling McAuliffe, who then used his political contacts to help Swann.[8] In 1990, federal regulators seized Swann's American Pioneer Savings Bank, causing Swann to file for bankruptcy, and McAuliffe to lose $800,000 he had invested in American Pioneer.[8] The Resolution Trust Corporation, a federal agency, seized American Pioneer's assets and liabilities.[8] Under the guidance of Swann, McAuliffe partnered with a pension fund controlled by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and the National Electrical Contractors Association to buy American Pioneer real estate, valued at $50 million, for $38.7 million from the Resolution Trust Corporation.[8][10] Of the purchase amount, McAuliffe paid $100, while the pension fund paid $38.7 million;[8] McAuliffe still received a 50% equity stake.[10] The deal was arranged by pension fund trustee Jack Moore, who was an acquaintance of McAuliffe from the Gephardt presidential campaign.[8][10] Following the deal, the Department of Labor filed a lawsuit against McAuliffe and Moore, accusing them of imprudent business practices.[8][10]

Global Crossing

In 1997, McAuliffe invested $100,000 in Global Crossing,[6] a Bermuda-registered telecommunications company providing fiber-optic networking services worldwide.[11] Global Crossing went public in 1998.[12] The following year, McAuliffe sold the majority of his holding for a $8 million profit (other accounts have said his profit was $18 million).[13] McAuliffe sold the rest of his shares in January 2002.[13] The company filed for bankruptcy that same month, causing investors to lose over $54 billion, and 10,000 employees to lose their jobs.[13][14] McAuliffe, who lambasted Republicans after the Enron scandal, was criticized as hypocritical in the media, prompting him to set up television interviews to explain himself.[15] On Hannity & Colmes, Sean Hannity pointed out McAuliffe's large profit, to which McAuliffe responded, "What are you, jealous or something? I mean, you buy stock. It was a great company."[16] According to McAuliffe's book, he played no management role in Global Crossing.[6]

GreenTech Automotive

GreenTech Automotive

In 2009, McAuliffe founded GreenTech Automotive, a holding company, which purchased Chinese electric car company EU Auto MyCar for $20 million in May 2010.[17][18] Later that year, McAuliffe relocated GreenTech's headquarters to McLean, Virginia. GreenTech subsequently announced plans to manufacture vehicles in Mississippi.[19][20]

In April 2013, McAuliffe announced his resignation from GreenTech.[21] Although he resigned from his position, McAuliffe still holds majority ownership in GreenTech.[22][23]

In December 2012, McAuliffe was questioned as to why he chose to locate the factory in Mississippi as opposed to Virginia. McAuliffe claimed that he wanted to bring the factory to Virginia but the Virginia Economic Development Partnership (VEDP), the state's business recruitment agency, chose not to bid on it.[24] However, in January 2013, PolitiFact declared McAuliffe's claim to be false. According to PolitiFact, VEDP and GreenTech formally discussed building the factory in Virginia, and its representatives even toured potential sites with GreenTech representatives.[24] McAuliffe said he disagreed with PolitiFact's report, and said other GreenTech executives made the decision, but did not offer specifics as to how the report was mistaken

call it what you want, but you know I'm right
I've been here for nine years and have watched the changes

 

[Seawytch]

So...the Democratic candidate, despite being a horrible candidate, is the one that's going to win in Virginia and yet the right wing here at USMB (and apparently a number in the GOP) think that they aren't winning National elections because they aren't far right enough. Um...okay, good deductive reasoning! Go with it.

which also is a perfect example of Party over anyone running....

Or of simply too much money backing the parties.

It's not enjoyable because they're are too many dissenting views? You seem to have no problem with "hate fest" threads about Democrats, Liberals or the current President of the United States and, in fact, happily dive right in. You're actually whining because "both sides do it"?!?
