Huh? What are you talking about?
Why are you snarking at markomalley?
Did you read—or comprehend—what he posted?
I even read the article in the LA Times. It was the only good news to be had. Knowing that a bunch of low-information liberals are accidentally signing up with a true, rightwing, patriotic party is hilarious.
The current party leader thought about changing the name a while ago, but decided not to because he didn't want to have to go through the expense of getting a sufficient number of members in order to retain ballot access for the party. He's honest enough with himself to know that there aren't a lot of Californians left that agree with the Constitution.
The really stupid thing about O'Malley's comment is that the AIP was actually trying to put Trump up as their candidate but the Sec of State wouldn't allow it. So AIP is actually on Trump's side rather than Cruz's side. If O'Malley spent even five minutes investigating he would have found this out and would be hailing the AIP as his friends.
