McAuliffe’s Twitter feeds…among other things he defends the I-66 tolling plan, calls Republican Hal Parrish a liar, praised the federal budget deal, lauds Hillary Clinton’s performance in front of the Benghazi committee, says he’d love to see Donald Trump as the Republican nominee against Hillary Clinton, and suggests that either of Virginia’s two U.S. Senators would be excellent picks as Hillary Clinton’s running mate.
