Yes, that’s true, but we’re still very early in the process. I feel that once we get to the debates, O’Malley’s actual hands-on, day-to-day experience with complex big-city governance will get traction.

Unfortunately for Dr. Paglia, her party doesn't have enough SUNY-Binghampton grad types in the power positions. The McGovern delegate rules and Super-Delegate revisions favor the established powers (Clinton-Obama people) and racial minorities and feminists (Jesse Jackson etc.). Others can back into the nomination (e.g. Kerry), but only in a vaccuum. The only vaccuum here is the Hillary machine sucking up support and $$$ and keeping the dust mites away. The Dems might know a loss is coming, but stopping the inevitable to avoid bigger losses at the state level might be impossible. Plus, the Dems have NO bench. Anyone reasonably non-Socialist got beat in the last three cycles. Some of the hard lefties who still have respect are in their fourth or fifth scre (Feinstein?! Really?)
