Ben Tribbett: "I'm so proud to support" Terry McAuliffe for Governor
Tuesday, May 26, 2009
This is great news. For Ben's full reasoning, see here.
"Throughout this campaign, Terry has had the highest bar of any of our candidates in the primary...and I'm so proud to be standing him today to support him because of the way he's cleared that bar." - Ben Tribbett
"So much of his campaign reminds me of Jim Webb's campaign in 2006 when the netroots drafted him to run for the U.S. Senate. Jim was a grassroots candidate who wasn't afraid to be a little bit outside the mainstream. We need that leadership in Richmond when we look at the type of compromises that come out of the General Assembly, we need a governor who won't ever compromise our principles as Democrats and I think Terry has shown throughout this campaign and throughout his career in politics that he won't ever compromise our principles as Democrats." - Ben Tribbett
"When I get down to Richmond, we'll have done it with the grassroots and the netroots." - Terry McAuliffe
