O'Malley's star staring to shine brighter
 
All one has to do is look at his background compared to Obama and O'Malley stands much, MUCH taller in experience of managing.

Compared to Clinton one just has to look in the mirror and question why she is even a candidate.

The 2008 dark horse came out late and knocked her off her queen to be perch.
O'Malley is starting to shine much earlier.

He is a good looking candidate by background and by performance. He is a much better candidate because he is not a product of Washington politics.

I do not care what the polls show how far ahead Clinton is.....she was in 2007/2008 too. I bet the Clinton machine is busy churning up the paper work to see if they can discredit O'Malley.

President Obama announced his candidacy for the presidency in Feb 2007 in Springfield, Illinois, in the square on a very cold and wintry day, not exactly "the 2008 dark horse that came out late" that you painted. Obama announced even earlier than Hillary Clinton.

I'm sure using the term 'dark horse' to constantly describe Obama is just your way of using descriptive language and not disparaging in any way.

As a big Martin O'Malley fan, can you tell us how much campaign money he has raised thus far? Whoever runs on the democratic side will need a minimum of one billion dollars and has less than a year to raise it. So where does O'Malley stand on the fundraising?

Who the hell cares. What does that have to do with him being a better candidate?

Guest 04-01-2015 08:54 PM

As a person that lived under O'Malley's rule for 8 years, I would hope the office of president eludes him.

No matter what you may not like about him he is still by comparison a much better candidate than Hillary Clinton!

Guest 04-02-2015 05:56 PM

O'Malley is good and was an excellent governor in Maryland.

Look for a Presidential ticket of Hillary Clinton for President and O'Malley for VP.

That will be 16 years of Democrat presidents.

Pura Vida.

Does anybody really think someone would stand by for another 8 years of incompetence and more of the same politics and have a chance to run again then.

Why would a sharp, better qualified, like it or not, younger, non insider settle for such a demeaning role.

He is by far the better candidate. Anybody who has looked at capability, qualifications, accomplishments ( or lack thereof) would not let Clinton's resume' stay in the pile.

She is the worn out face of all that everybody dislikes about politics in general and withe the Clintons in specific.

How do you figure that? Because you said so?

Mrs Clinton is far and away the best qualified candidate of either Party if, indeed, she does becomes a candidate.

If she does - she wins easily.

Wow! I thought this was a discussion of democratic canidates. How did the tea party get involved in this? Like it or not the libs rip each other as well when discussing thier canidates. Not everyone is in love with Hill....

Guest 04-02-2015 08:40 PM

If we have 16 more years of what we have now our grandchildren will have to decide if they want to live in The liberal US or the conserative US because this country will split in two. Just like there il be a north florida and a south florida.

Let's hope so. But it is not going to be our grandchildren that will rip us apart...
It is our generation and our current leaders. We need a JFK. The only problem the progressives would run him out of town on a rail.

Other than being married to Bill Clinton, and recognizing that had she never married him we NEVER would have heard of her ... tell us exactly what her qualifications are please.

Guest 04-02-2015 09:35 PM

Gee the subject was O'Malley as a candidate VS Clinton. How amazing the thread is completely polluted by the same crap as any other subject.

Conclusion? It does not matter what the subject the antagonizer will take the opposite side while still slamming, degrading, name calling, change the subject, dodge and weave away from the subject matter continuing to bash the opposition.

No matter the subject.

As was proposed some time ago, since we do not have the advantage of an ignore option, just do not engage. The antagonists merry go round, by design, goes....NOWHERE.

Good post, especially in this forum! :BigApplause: Posters will come to this site and hide behind thier keyboards and say crap they would never say in public or in this forum if they had to use thier real names or TOTV screen name.

It is difficult at best to have an open and thoughtful discussion here (or any of the forums on this site) without the "haters" spewing thier crap!

You had to reach pretty far up to come up with that term ... hope you didn't do any internal damage.

Guest 04-03-2015 08:56 AM

Democrats want their candidate to have a decisive win. That is why we are backing Sec. Clinton. O'Malley would not be a certain win. Good man, excellent governor but not enough experience YET. Maybe after being VP.

Clinton is a sure win.

She has the base that Republicans cannot get into their camp because of the Neanderthal thinking of their party. Republicans have not figured these are Progressive times and NOT days of Joe McCarthy.

Do not forget that if you are not progressive, you are regressive. Look that up in your Funk & Wagnall.

Guest 04-03-2015 10:44 AM

I haven't seen one iota of truth to back up the fiction that O'Malley's star is starting to shine brighter. Where are the links? Where is he in the polls?

It is doubtful that O'Malley would ever be considered for a spot in the Clinton cabinet after what he said last week-end about the presidency and dynasties. It's time for O'Malley to find a job.

BTW: Now that Hillary Clinton has reportedly signed a lease for her election headquarters, she has only 15 days to announce her candidacy, according to election laws.

Guest 04-03-2015 03:27 PM

Well guests I am late to this party but as is my practice i have read every post before adding my comments.
O"malley's better than clinton and the reverse. a few threw in some hater remarks.

However not one post offered any details as to the bona fides of their pick between O'Malley and Clinton. If you want to get posters' attention then recite resume details

This is the second time the tea party has been mentioned. I am making a leap of faith the same person made both post. So my question to them is can't you come up with something more original or is that just your standard reply when someone makes a point you cannot refute? Just call everybody a tea partier and pat yourself on your back. How impressive. Btw, are supporting Hillary or
O'Malley in this discussion? How about an original thought. :thumbup:

Why don't you G'nopers just concentrate on trying to solidify your own base instead of worrying about the inevitable win of Sec. Clinton?

Yours is the dwindling party of tired, grumpy, old men who are terrified of a liberal woman running the country.

Please tell us who comprises the demographic base of the Republican Party in 2015.

Please include percent of sex, race, age, gender, etc.

Now do the same for the Democratic Party.

In other words, you already know the Republicans have an aging base of males who are outnumbered by The base of Democrats.

Your time has come and gone. Accept reality. You and your kind are not demographically important anymore. Your ideas are outdated. Accept reality.

Ok , i could'nt post this in the just for fun forum....

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below.

She shouted to him, “Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don’t know where I am.”

The man consulted his portable GPS and replied, “You’re in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.”

She rolled her eyes and said, “You must be a Republican.”

“I am,” replied the man. “How did you know?”

“Well,” answered the balloonist, “Everything you told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I’m still lost. Frankly, you’ve not been much help to me.”

The man smiled and responded, “You must be a Democrat.”

“I am,” replied the balloonist. “How did you know?”

“Well,” said the man, “You don’t know where you are or where you’re going. You’ve risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem.”

“And You’re in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it’s my fault.”
