It could be Terry McAuliffe, long time Clinton boy.

McAuliffe had a prolific fundraising career within the Democratic Party, and a personal and political relationship with Bill and Hillary Clinton.[13] McAuliffe and his staff raised $275 million, then an unprecedented sum, for Clinton’s causes while president. After Bill Clinton’s tenure ended, McAuliffe guaranteed the Clintons’ $1.35 million mortgage for their home in Chappaqua, New York. The deal raised ethical questions.[27][28] In 2000, McAuliffe chaired a fundraiser with the Clintons; setting a fundraising record of $26.3 million.[29]

McAuliffe told The New York Times in 1999, “I’ve met all of my business contacts through politics. It’s all interrelated.” When he meets a new business contact, he continued, “then I raise money from them.”[13] He acknowledged that success of his business dealings stemmed partly from his relationship with Bill Clinton, saying, “No question, that’s a piece of it.” He also credited his ties to former congressmen Dick Gephardt and Tony Coelho, his Rolodex of 5,000-plus names, and his ability to personally relate to people.[13] He told New York Times reporter Mark Leibovich in 2012 that his Rolodex held 18,632 names.[30]

Chairman of the Democratic National Committee[edit]
In June 2000, as organizers of the 2000 Democratic National Convention (DNC) were scrambling to raise $7 million, McAuliffe was named chairman of the convention.[27]

In February 2001, McAuliffe was elected chairman of the DNC, and served until February 2005.[31] McAuliffe tried and failed to persuade his top rival, Maynard Jackson, to drop out of the race for chairman, but was still the heavy favorite.[32] During his tenure, the DNC raised $578 million, and emerged from debt for the first time in its history.[33]

In the period between the 2002 elections and the 2004 Democratic convention, the DNC rebuilt operations and intra-party alliances. McAuliffe worked to restructure the Democratic primary schedule, allowing Arizona, New Mexico, North Carolina and South Carolina to vote earlier; the move provided African-American and Hispanic communities greater power in presidential primaries. According to The Washington Post, the move bolstered United States Senator John Kerry’s fund raising efforts.[34] The DNC rebuilt its headquarters, and created a computer database of more than 170 million potential voters known as “Demzilla”.[35] Five-time presidential candidate Ralph Nader alleged that, during the 2004 presidential election, McAuliffe offered him cash to withdraw from certain pivotal states.[36] McAuliffe’s staff admitted to conversations with Nader about his campaign, but denied offering him money.[36]

In January 2005, a few weeks before his term ended, McAuliffe earmarked $5 million of the party’s cash to assist Tim Kaine and other Virginia Democrats in their upcoming elections. This donation was the largest non-presidential disbursement in DNC history, and was part of McAuliffe’s attempt to prove Democratic viability in Southern states in the wake of the 2004 presidential election.[37] Kaine was successful in his bid, and served as the Governor of Virginia from 2006 to 2010.

Post-DNC chairmanship[edit]
McAuliffe was co-chairman of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign,[38] and was one of her superdelegates at the 2008 Democratic National Convention.[39]

In 2012, he was a visiting fellow at Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government. In addition to several faculty and student lectures, McAuliffe hosted a segment entitled, “The Making of a Candidate: From Running Campaigns to Running on my Own.”[40]

McAuliffe was an adviser at ZeniMax Media.[41][42]
