For full disclosure, I am an Obama supporter
Today, Hillary Clinton released her 100 member Virginia Steering Committee. Included on the list of powerhouses endorsers are:
Former Treasurer, University of Virginia Democrats
Student Government Representative, College of William and Mary
President of the Environmental Law Society, College of William & Mary Law School
Now that is funny, but it isn't all fun and games. My wife happens to be on this list.
Meghan Thornton, Frmr Treasurer, VA Young Democrats (Williamsburg)
Except she shouldn't be:
- They spelled her first name wrong, it's Megan, not Meghan.
- Her last name isn't Thornton any longer as we were married in June.
- No one asked her to be on this list (though she does support Clinton)
- She doesn't remember ever giving them permission for anything like this.
- The fact that, my wife, who hasn't done anything in VA Politics in 3+ years is on their list shows just how desperate they are.
She didn't ask to be on this list, nor was she asked to be on this list, but the campaign put her there. In fact, had they asked she would have said No. Regardless, shouldn't they at least be able to get the names of their "steering committee members" right? This makes me wonder if all of the other "members" truly do support HRC.
