| Zusammenfassung: | For more than 25 years, Terry McAuliffe has been at the epicenter of American politics. Just out of Catholic University in Washington, he took a position with the Carter-Mondale campaign and quickly became one of their chief fund-raisers. The list of his former mentors, friends, and close associates reads like a who's who of legendary Democrats: Tip O'Neill, Jimmy Carter, Dick Gephardt, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, and more. The most successful fund-raiser in political history, Terry established himself as a heavyweight Democratic strategist and leader, pulling the Democratic National Committee out of debt for the first time in its history. Confidant and adviser to President Clinton and countless presidential candidates, mediator among party leaders, chairman of a national convention and presidential inaugural, and a forceful party spokesman--all without losing his reputation as a colorful, fun-loving character liked and respected even by his Republican adversaries.--From publisher description. |
