“Is there anyone naive enough to believe for a second that a Clinton confidant is not corrupt?
Further the timing of this announcement seems a little too coincidental. It would sure take some of the direct light of[f] Hillary.”
Since McAuliffe was essentially the bagman for the Clinton political machine, I think these corruption allegations will further tarnish Hillary along these lines (if that’s possible).
There is a given percentage that will not be voting for her no matter what. The press will do everything they can to cover the DOJ probe into her.
By throwing attention on McAuliffe and ignoring his connection to her the LIV's will be distracted.
