It was a beehive of activity at the McAuliffe campaign offices in Northern Virginia yesterday. Though numerous polls show McAuliffe holding a substantial lead over both opponents in the Democratic gubernatorial primary, the Washington Post sided with an underdog, endorsing VA state senator Creigh Deeds.
My sources managed to catch up with Terry McAuliffe late last night, and the former DNC Chairman was none too pleased, to say the least: "Them rascals over at the Washington Post done knocked me down and stole muh teeth!".
McAuliffe said that while the Post is "stuffed in with a whole lotta squirrel-faced pond-lizards", he'll be "busier then a cat coverin' doo-doo on a marble floor" this next week and wont have time to fume too much about the Wa Po snub.
Though before heading out to "chase down some dinner", McAuliffe had a parting shot for the Post's editorial board: "I reckon thit nex tom them boyz take ma governin' skillz fer granted, I'll slap 'em so hard ther clothes 'll be outta style!...YEEE HAAAAAAA!!"
