McAuliffe is a gift to the GOP

From CNN: "Democrats Unveil Comprehensive Voter Turnout Project"

The computer program also includes technological features that party officials can use to categorize voters to raise money and target mailings, among other things. McAuliffe said the DNC donor list in 2000 was extremely weak. "Something was fundamentally flawed when 50 million people voted for Al Gore and we only had 400,000 donors on our list," he said.

Terry McAuliffe was tapped as the DNC chairman solely for his fund-raising abilities. In the 2002 election, the Democrats had no message, but lots of cash...and lost. McAuliffe seems to think the problem was that they didn't have enough money. Works for me.

Update: From this morning's Washington Times "McAuliffe promises to find enough money to win in 2004" Always with the money.
