(110,159 posts)all of his family. I really like Clintons policies, but OMalley had incredibly fluid, insightful, creative policies. I would have been perfectly fine with him as a President.
He never did get good at speeches, though, Lol.

(110,159 posts)aware, educated on the issue. I thought that might have pulled the youth for him. My oldest really valued him for that.

(30,481 posts)He will play an enormous role in our party moving forward.
VP?
Head of the DNC?
President?
He is capable of so much.

(58,785 posts)Wasserman-Schultz--attracted hate from the overly passionate/underly balanced ones like sweat attracts mosquitoes. Would it elevate him sufficiently in the party in spite of potential far-left hostility?
I came out of the early months a big admirer of MOM too. He's 53. He could run for president in 2024 and, if he lost (as seems likely after 16 years of Democratic presidents) it would set him up for 2028 and/or 2032 at ages 65 and 69.

(10,839 posts)I like O'Malley and he'll be another strong advocate. The endorsements are starting to roll in as predicted. The President's endorsement unlocked the door. Barrage soon to follow.
