Hey, you guys know how to tell when Terry McAuliffe is lying?

Yep, you got it!

He was just proving the point on CNN, in fact, with Wolf Blitzer.

I"m not sure we should elect as president someone who can neither do basic math nor understand rules or recognize any need to follow them, personally. I mean, laws are rules, right? And the president is supposed up uphold the law, right? So where would that leave us?!?

Seriously, it's saddening to see how straight-faced some of those in positions of power can be while they're just out and out lying to the people. Blitzer came back to him twice and said, "But don't you think it's silly for example to count the votes from MI for Hillary Clinton but to assume that Barack Obama would have gotten zero votes there?" (Because of course he's repeating the Clinton camp's current favorite lie, just as Clinton herself is, that she's actually ahead in the popular vote.)

The closest he came to an answer to that question either time was that Obama took his name off the ballot there "for political reasons ... and to appease [note the word choice, there!] IA & NH." No mention of the DNC, of course, though McAuliffe knows that organization about as well as anyone and is fully aware of the history of those 2 states. Geez, even George Will, a generally conservative pundit, recognizes the truth better than Terry McAuliffe, former head of the DNC.

So yeah, when his lips are moving...
