O’Malley blasts Democratic leaders for ‘rigged’ 2016 debate process
The Washington Post ^ | August 28, 2015 | Philip Rucker

Former Maryland governor Martin O'Malley effectively declared war on the Democratic Party leadership here Friday, blasting the party for what he called a "rigged" debate process in the presidential nominating contest and demanding it sanction additional debates.

O'Malley, who has struggled to gain traction in the polls this summer, used his appearance before the Democratic National Committee meeting to angrily denounce the party's rules that he argued were a disadvantage to all the candidates and a disservice to Democrats.

The nomination process is rigged? I'm shocked to hear this.

He’s just figured this out now?

Did someone from the White Hut call him and tell him he’s not gonna be their boy? He didn’t get a birthday card from Valerie Jarrett?

O’Malley will soon apologize like a pathetic little baby for his insolence.

Just a “cat fight” between Marxists, er, Democrats.

O’Malley is not a winner. He’s a whiner and a leftist one to boot.

Hope the DNC hangs his balls at the entrance to their headquarters. If they did, it would be the first useful thing they have accomplished in years.

I’ve noticed a trend with both parties. They seem to trade up the role of the Presidency every 8 years. NWO triglodyte Bush Sr. was an exception.

Seems to me Bush Jr. dove into obscurity on purpose to make the sheep believe the only way towards a positive future was to elect a “black man” who was a Democrat (Peace at all costs).

Now we’re on the opposite end of the spectrum. We’ve got 14 RINO’s running along with a handful of honest/semi-honest candidates. Folks are hungry for honesty and no-nonsense after 8 years of a muslim sodomite in office completely giving us over to Socialism.

Who says the game isn’t rigged?

So true. And that cannot be repeated enough for people who haven't heard of him before. He has been a stand-out whiner his whole career.
