A Bad Sign For Clinton, Sort Of
Terry McAuliffe is on the verge of losing his voice.
The prodigal son of Syracuse remains on his book tour -- check out the stellar coverage here -- and his colleagues really want him to preserve his best public asset -- that famous, booming, confident voice that has cajoled literally hundreds of millions of dollars out of the deep, hand-tailored pockets of major Democratic donors. (Listen to a poor -- but proud -- McAuliffe rasp into the microphone.)
After all, Sen. Clinton needs a big fundraising quarter.
In Syracuse, one audience member was professionally concerned about the condition of Mac's throat. "I'm a throat doctor and I want to perscribe something to you," this person said.
So - back in Washington -- one of McAuliffe's aides gave him some advice: don't yell so much. But that didn't stop McAuliffe from screaming his booming hellos. [MARC AMBINDER]
