LAS VEGAS -- The three Democratic presidential candidates made their case here Wednesday night in an early state that may prove critical in securing the nomination.

Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders and Martin O'Malley delivered speeches at the "Battle Born Battleground" caucus dinner, hosted by the Nevada Democratic Party and Sen. Harry Reid, who introduced the candidates.

O'Malley, who spoke second, dedicated a significant portion of his speech to knocking Ted Cruz. The former governor of Maryland is currently struggling with single digits in polls.

"I'd like to say that Donald Trump is the most outrageous and unqualified person ever to run for president. But really, that's not fair to Ted Cruz," he said.

In his strongest criticism of Cruz to date, O'Malley called him out for his positions on gun control, saying: "Cruz actually says that the answer to gun violence is more guns.

Ted Cruz "I will not make bill clinton an issue"

Trump "she is a liar, everyone knows that", "she is running to stay out of jail"

OK which one has your back?

I can see that they are all worried about getting a president who actually believes in following the Constitution. There is piling on from all quarters.
