Hillary Clinton stepped out to spotlight again after her term as 67th Secretary of State ended to aid her long time supporter and family friend Terry McAuliffe for Virginia governor.
On Saturday, in Virginia, Hillary Clinton took a stage to endorse McAuliffe as the state governor and the crowd cheered for her with thundering applause. Clinton praised for her long time supporter and said McAuliffe “has the biggest heart and the most open mind of anyone you’ll ever meet. Terry has always been there for me, and I’m pleased to be here for him.”
Clinton then went on and talked about the Congress shutdown and dysfunctional leadership in Washington nowadays. Clinton stated, “That is not the kind of leadership we need in Virginia and America today.” She remarked the state Virginia needs a leadership role like Terry McAuliffe.
Terry McAuliffe is the long time family friend of Clintons and was the former co-chair of Hillary Clinton’s 2008 presidential campaign and her husband’s former key fundraiser. Also, McAuliffe is a businessman and former chairman of the Democratic Party and Democratic National Committee.
