Clinton Chairman Terry McAuliffe Posing With Obama Sign? Smiling?

[tekisui]

Was Terry McAuliffe, chairman of Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, engaging in his own sort of hedging strategy at a recent meeting of Washington State Democrats? Or was the former Democratic National Committee chair engaging in a kumbayah, all-us-Democrats-are-in-this-together moment?

McAuliffe attended the regional caucuses of the Washington State Democrats over the weekend and graciously posed with some grass-roots Democrats.

What's really interesting, as you can see from these photos, is that McAuliffe posed with supporters of Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign and that a beaming McAuliffe helped them hold up their large Obama signs for the camera. McAuliffe is wearing his Clinton button but it's dwarfed by the Obama sign he's holding.

9. Oh c'mon, I'm joking

I'll delete it if your offended.

12. We Obamabots just get hammered so often for sexism

Don't want to give the other side any more ammunition.

4. I think its a new Clinton smear tactic

No one wants HIM to be on Obama's side!

[jgraz]

5. If this were any other year, we'd be giving him props for promoting party unity

On the other hand, this is Terry McAuliffe we're talking about.

15. I must say he's looking

physically better than the last time on saw him on tv..he's lost weight and totally beaming helping hold up that big ol' Obama 2008 signage. I don't think hilary's going to be too impressed, though..just a wild guess.

7. Maybe the new Clinton campaign strategy for victory is to get her staffers to work for Obama?

They can turn a 20 point advantage into a crushing defeat like nobody's business.

8. That was the rumor a few weeks ago.

Part of Hillary's exit will be to get some on her staff employed with Obama.

10. he likes O that much more than Hill

the sign in his hand is much bigger than the button on his coat.

11. And look at that smile, no less than three times!~

13. Clinton: "Terry McAuliffe is now dead to me."

"And with this phone call I'm about to place to Harold Ickes, he will soon be dead to everyone else."
