2020 Democrats are on a collision course, and Terry McAuliffe might speed it up
by Eddie Scarry
March 05, 2019 04:01 PM There is no clearer indication that Democrats are in a state of crisis heading into 2020 than the sudden anticipation for former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe to jump in the race.
A CNN report on Monday said several wealthy donors were declining to commit their support for any Democrat until they know for sure that McAuliffe won’t run. If he does, they’re pledging to put their money behind him.
McAuliffe has no national reputation, but in Washington, he’s most closely associated with his extensive history fundraising for Bill and Hillary Clinton.
So, then: This is who some of the most active, deep-pocketed donors in the Democratic Party are waiting for? A Clinton understudy?
