Martin O'Malley sticks with Plan A: try to upend Hillary Clinton

Former Gov. Martin O’Malley (D) of Maryland isn’t running for the Senate seat being vacated by Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D), who is retiring at the end of her term.

Mr. O’Malley, it appears, is keeping his eyes on the prize: the presidency. O’Malley has been quietly preparing for months to run for president, despite the appearance that Hillary Rodham Clinton has the Democratic nomination all but locked up, without even having announced.

Yep. Remember how Bill had to go try to bail her out with blue collar Dems? Bill’s getting old and possibly too sick to help much this time. I don’t think young people are going to like her either. I really think she is a terrible candidate with no appeal outside of solid Democrat territory.

Although the MSM fawns over ole BJ, nearly every candidate he and Hillary campaigned with in 2016 lost.

The old Clinton magic (which was mostly a media creation anyway, both his POTUS wins were plurality) is gone, LOL.

Upend Hillary Clinton? I don’t know. She’s got a pretty low center of gravity. It would be like trying to push over France.

I would not be surprised to find out that the retiring Maryland Senator Barbara Mikulski was paid handsomely by the Clintoons to announce her retirement in order to tempt O’Malley to run for her Senate seat instead of challenging Hilary for the DemocRAT presidential nomination. Yeah, the Toons would do something like that I believe.

"Upend Hillary Clinton?"

A nauseating sight that would be, no doubt.

As a lifelong Marylander, I could tell you more than you want to know about “OWEMALLEY! He’s a Democrat and liberal to the extreme. Thanks to him and his fellow MARXISTS in Annapolis, we are the only state in the nation to charge a rain tax.DEMOCRAT=SUCKS.God please forgive me but all I want is license to start shooting Democrats.

His hand-picked successor was 15 points up in the polls until Obama came to campaign for him. Lost to the R. It really was O'Malley's loss.
