If she keeps it up I may have to just become a supporter.
TPP is where the line is drawn for me. She can either come out against it or lay out the real reasons it exists (and it's not really about jobs). Of course she'll have my vote in the general!
The best part of the speech is how she interleaved inequality into the discussion, noting how within a short radius between two parts of Baltimore the life expectancy dropped 20% (or was it 20 years? either way).

I have criticisms of O'Malley even but I wouldn't mind him winning.
Not sure about Jim Webb but I'd still vote in the general if the unlikely happened.
