Terry McAuliffe, referring to Michigan trying to move up their primary in 2004 when he was DNC Chairman:
“Carl, take it to the bank,” I said. “They will not get a credential. The closest they’ll get to Boston will be watching it on television. I will not let you break this entire nominating process for one state. The rules are the rules. If you want to call my bluff, Carl, you go ahead and do it.”

That was 2004, this is now: McAuliffe is now calling for Michigan results to count, saying,
“I’m saying they’ve already voted, let’s count the votes. I’m saying that the state parties in those states need to work with the national party and figure out how we count the votes that have already been voted.”
So basically, Mr. McAuliffe is a hypocrite who is saying exactly the opposite of last election cycle. Simply put, there is a very clear reason why I don’t want Hillary as the nominee, and part of it is because she puts scumbags like Terry McAuliffe and Mark Penn in positions of power within her campaign. After all, if she can’t run her campaign competently, how can we trust her to steward the nation?
