Terry McAuliffe meets with Michael Bloomberg



It's not clear if McAuliffe was seeking an endorsement or donations from Bloomberg.

By MAGGIE HABERMAN | 9/3/13 3:50 PM EDT



Democratic Virginia gubernatorial hopeful Terry McAuliffe recently met with New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg in an effort to get support from the billionaire politician, two sources familiar with the meeting told POLITICO.
 
The pair met in New York a week-and-a-half ago, according to the sources. Aides to McAuliffe declined comment, and a Bloomberg spokesman did not respond to an email asking about the meeting.

It wasn’t immediately clear whether McAuliffe was seeking an endorsement from Bloomberg — who has billed himself as an independent and whose backing has been helpful to candidates in some places in the Northeast, like Rhode Island — or whether he hoped for financial support.

The rest is here: http://www.politico.com/story/2013/09/terry-mcauliffe-michael-bloomberg-meeting-96217.html#ixzz2drjgHlry

The whole story is 5 paragraphs long.  But, these two need to be linked together, as McAuliffe is ahead in the VA Governor's race.

Apparently, there's a lot of people.  The Republican candidate--I can't really remember how to spell his name--is involved in an ethics probe about diverting business to his wife's company while he was/is Virginia's AG, IIRC.  Not many people in Virginia like that.
