Showing Original Post only (View all)O'Malley's March to the White House [View all]
Okay, I really like Martin O'Malley; and, since I had nothing else to do with my time, I started looking into his Irish folk band. After watching quite a few of his videos on Youtube, I said to myself: "He is really having a good time." The band has made at least three CD's, one of which is quite pricey on Amazon (must be rare).
So, here is my in-depth question (gravity alert): How do you suppose this love of playing Irish folk music in public will affect both his campaign and his possible presidency? Will it make him lean even more to the left?
Be sure to weigh in if you have had direct experience of his guitar-playing and singing with O'Malley's March.
And if he runs, can we get the CD's?

I have a dear friend who plays Irish music — We went to his wedding earlier this month...

They play it well... but that's what they're playing, which is the reason I hear that.
