McAuliffe fundraised for Hillary Clinton and once gave her a $1.5 million loan for a house.

McAuliffe recently bragged that 72% of his campaign contributors are Virginians. It was a lie. Campaign finance reports show nearly $4 of every $5 McAuliffe raised actually came from outside Virginia.

He is opposed to coal and will kill the Viginia coal industry, costing them money and jobs. He came out with a firm position in support of Mr. Obama’s war on coal. In 2009, when he ran for Governor, he said he ‘never wants another coal plant built.’ The Washington Post reported that he supports the EPA rules on carbon emissions.

While touring Tyson’s Corner technology firm MicroTech, McAuliffe, who only reluctantly gives away his true views, avoided questions about the coal industry and the EPA rules until a reporter pressed him. When he was asked if he supported the guidelines ‘as they are written right now,’ McAuliffe said, ‘I do, you bet. What I’ve looked at, I support what we need to do to obviously protect our air and our water.’

In 1997, when he was being probed by the Department of Labor and the US Attorney’s office for sweetheart deals he received, he said, “I’m honest as the day is long,” McAuliffe said in response to the accusations. “The worst thing I’ve ever gotten is a speeding ticket.”

Is that true?

McAuliffe sold $8 million worth of stock in a Bermuda-based telecom company before it went bankrupt while other investors lost $54 billion.

Nothing suspicious there!

He runs around with the elite, making deals and loads of money through mysterious investments and machinations. He is an expert at leveraging political favors through business connections, and leveraging business favors through political connections.

He founded a bank that loaned money to politicians and when the bank was discovered to be engaging in unsound business practices in 1991, he merged the bank with another and became the vice chairman of the new entity.

When his business partner and father-in-law Jack Swann’s bank was seized by the feds, he got an IBEW pension fund to buy up the bank’s $38 million in real estate holdings, receiving a 50% equity stake for $100.

The women plan to come out in droves for him because they are afraid of Cuccinelli’s views as portrayed by McAuliffe. Maybe they should listen to some of the other things McAuliffe has said concerning women. McAuliffe told the late writer Marjorie Williams for a profile in Vanity Fair that his wife ‘has no idea’ how much money he has, and he implied she doesn’t need to know: ‘She’s got a great life. Listen, her credit cards are paid and all that. She knows I do very well.’

McAuliffe is an anti-Catholic Catholic.

Back in 2003, Catholic League President William Donohue condemned then-DNC Chairman Terry McAuliffe for refusing to break his ties with anti-Catholic bigotry. Donohue said that the DNC still maintained a link on its website to a professed anti-Catholic organization, Kissling’s Catholics for a Free Choice (CCFC). McAuliffe had no remorse or any intention of disassociating from Catholic bashing according to Donohue.

As it turned out, he never did.

Kissling’s group is a hate group.

In 2004, McAuliffe announced the appointment of Rev. Brenda Bartella Peterson as the Senior Advisor for Religious Outreach; she is an ordained minister in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and she also wants the words ‘under God’ removed from the Pledge of Allegiance.

During the 2004 presidential election, according to Ralph Nader, McAuliffe made a deal with him. Nader had to ‘stay out of 19 states which are close between Kerry and Bush,’ and he – McAuliffe – would ‘provide resources’ to Nader in the remaining 31 states. Nader made the deal but kept it to himself until after the election.

McAuliffe is a political mercenary.

Talking Points Memo broke the story that McAuliffe’s campaign received $120,000 from a company linked to an African warlord – Liberian president Charles Taylor. The Liberian International Ship and Corporate Registry donated to McAuliffe twice within the past 12 months.

What could possibly go wrong with Liberian dictators helping to choose the next governor of the great state of Virginia?

New York nanny Michael Bloomberg might feel the camaraderie over their shared New York heritage because he gave over a million dollars to McAuliffe’s campaign.

How ‘bout them apples?
