O'Malley's thinking about running again? Who can blame him after that last heroic jaunt.

tcrosse বলেছেন...

He still has to get past the Queen in Exile.

Humperdink বলেছেন...

Well he's got "former mayor of Baltimore" on his resume, so there's that. What a fine city it is.

ddh বলেছেন...

The man who taxed rainfall in Maryland tests the waters in Iowa.

Every party needs its perpetual no-chance candidate that no one votes for.

Michael K বলেছেন...

At least he is younger than the rest of the party.

I expect to see Cory Booker run.

Since I don't do twitter, my heart is never atwitter. And frankly, only birds should tweet. But however, if this means having the Dems go for a candidate not named Hillary, I'm all for it.

Sometimes I get sick of these people with their future-oriented behaviors such as planning and delaying gratification. They sure cause a lot of problems for other people.

AllenS বলেছেন...

O'Malley will drop out as soon as you-know-who threatens to take his scalp.

Original Mike বলেছেন...

I can't wait not to vote for him.

Bay Area Guy বলেছেন...

Did O'Malley run last time? I had forgot:)

Bay Area Guy বলেছেন...

Hopefully, Lincoln Chaffee will follow O'Malley's lead - the bland following the bland.

Sebastian বলেছেন...

Sorry, Marty. It's Oprah time. She won't need no polls.

Tank বলেছেন...

Pitiful.

Mitch H. বলেছেন...

IF the Democrats want to win in 2020, it'll be someone from the Midwest. A senator, maybe?

jaydub বলেছেন...

Who said the Democrat bench wasn't deep? ;)

O'Malley's vulnerable on the sexual picadillo front. It got shut down in a hurry the first time it made it into social media because it came from a republican staffer and well, Maryland, but I had heard about it from a reliable source in his mayoral administration a year or so before it became public. Of course, my reliable source is nothing to you and certainly no proof, but good opposition research could be fruitful and delicious.

Hillary's entitlement has not yet expired.

Big Mike বলেছেন...

Now if Chuck really was a lifelong Republican, he'd be joining me in saying "Please, please, PLEASE!"

Do you mean "fruity?" Delicious!

Bad Lieutenant বলেছেন...

Naw, Big Mike, if C were a loyal patriotic American he'd be begging and praying for H to run again, and to shiv all D opposition by any means necessary, as is her wont.

southcentralpa বলেছেন...

Yeah, everyone is lining up to vote for a guy who took a lib state hard left to try to set himself up to run to HRC's left.

jaed বলেছেন...

The formula for Democrats is classically "governor of a red or reddish state, preferably in the South".
Looks like it's slim pickins out there, though.

This is for years when they don't have a "charistmatic member of a groundbreaking demographic group". But I think they can only pull an Obama once—the "first Latino president" or "first Asian president" just is not going to have the resonance that "first black president" did. And I'm not seeing any groundbreaking women out there with the necessary ingredients on the Dem side—as Hillary showed us, the charisma is a necessary part of the equation.

Bushman of the Kohlrabi বলেছেন...

It's never too early to finish last.

Eric বলেছেন...

We will know that the Trump economic miracle has been achieved when even Martin O'Malley can get a paying job.
