Terry McAuliffe

To me, Terry McAuliffe is less interesting as a Virginia governor than as a consummate political operator. The lawyer-banker-fundraiser combination tells you everything: he is a builder of machines and a mover of money, the kind of figure who thrives backstage shaping campaigns rather than chasing the spotlight. His long association with the Clinton operation reflects a relentless, relationship-driven energy that you cannot fake. I find that breed of pragmatic, deal-making Democrat genuinely fascinating, because their influence so often outlasts the offices they hold. Born in 1957 in Syracuse, he still radiates that restless, never-quite-done ambition I respect in lifelong political animals.
