With the recent SCOTUS ruling, I was thinking that Bob McDonnell should now pursue a countersuit against former Attorney General Eric Holder.

Eric Holder was the real criminal in this case, and the charges he pressed against McDonnell was a politically motivated witch hunt to ruin McDonnell's future political ventures. Holder should be thrown in prison for life, considering he was also found in contempt of Congress and was forced to resign. I think now would be the perfect opportunity for McDonnell to get his revenge on Holder for abusing his power as Attorney General.

McDonnell's conviction was overturned due to a legal technicality more so than due to his "innocence". I'm not fond of Holder either, but a countersuit would be pointless. Bob got very lucky and he knows it. If he's smart, he'll let it go and be happy with the fact that he doesn't have to worry about what might happen if he bends over to pick up the soap, if you catch my drift.

I do not think he can launch a counter suit against Eric Holder in any way whatsoever. This seems like a fantasy and as politically motivated as what you accuse him of.
