I think the only time I met Terry McAuliffe was when he wandered by at the Palm when I was having lunch with Begala and Carville. Yes that's a jokey namedropping thing. But more to the point, when I see him on the teevee I realize my resistance to Clinton is largely due to a desire to flush out the Clintonite shadow government and move on to the new. It isn't that I'm strongly opposed to these people, it's that I'm opposed to the permanent Washington floating world and my belief that anything which disrupts the permanent class is, in and of itself, a good thing.
Because they're very serious.
