McAuliffe tosses press from Roanoke fundraiser

Norman Leahy / June 25, 2013

Terry McAuliffe was in Roanoke on Monday doing what candidates do — raising money. How did it go? Here’s a hint:

…Terry McAuliffe was in town today for a fundraiser at the Holiday Inn by the Tanglewood Mall — but you’ll be relieved to know it was not at the Elephant Walk restaurant there.

Alas, Blue Ridge Caucus can’t tell you what he told southwest Virginia Democratic stalwarts since his campaign staff threw us out.

I wonder why they did that?

Let’s roll the tape of an earlier McAuliffe visit to Roanoke again:

There in all his former GreenTech glory, pitching the city council for a bit of corporate welfare.

Now you know why McAuliffe didn’t want the press at Monday’s luncheon.
