I always forget the power of DU! MineralMan May 2015 #20

I am sure the former governor has DU on his smart phone and is reconsidering right now./NT DemocratSinceBirth May 2015 #22

You're probably right, of course. MineralMan May 2015 #25

What do mean, 23? Cha May 2015 #29

... Number23 May 2015 #31

Okay.. Cha May 2015 #35

As a Bernie supporter I don't see some of these recent 'supporters' blm May 2015 #37

Yeah, silly me.. I wasn't thinking of that until 23 alluded. But, even some Cha May 2015 #48

How about "Vote for HRC and let the country slide right into fascism" zappaman May 2015 #66

Haha.. yeah, that's what I'm talkin' about.. right there. Lots of freakin Luck! Cha May 2015 #72

And what if this is NOT a Bernie supporter? What if this is just another trouble maker? jwirr May 2015 #41

And how would I know that? I have no idea who this guy is.. took him at face value. Cha May 2015 #50

If you take a look at the answers in this threads there is not a Bernie supporter who supported the jwirr May 2015 #52

yeah, I know.. and I posted what I thought of his stupid idea. Cha May 2015 #56

Thank you. Because as I stated here in another post IMO no one should drop out until the jwirr May 2015 #59

Been like that since the first primary battle here at DU. RNC ops running blm May 2015 #51

LOL Thank you. jwirr May 2015 #54

No he shouldn't AgingAmerican May 2015 #21

absurd cali May 2015 #24

Or Bernie could drop out...equally silly dembotoz May 2015 #26

Hey, if Ralph Nader had heeded your advice in 2000, and dropped out and endorsed Gore, Nye Bevan May 2015 #27

So is this the start of the Bernie/O'Malley wars? DCBob May 2015 #30

No this seems to be just another post trying to cause trouble. jwirr May 2015 #40

Yep. Seems so. DCBob May 2015 #42

I'd vote for an O'Malley/Sanders or a Sanders/O'Malley ticket with equal comfort carolinayellowdog May 2015 #32

No. nt peecoolyour May 2015 #33

Crazy talk. n/t demmiblue May 2015 #34

But why? HassleCat May 2015 #36

Excuse me?? CherokeeDem May 2015 #38

That will happen at the convention. No one should give up before the convention unless it is very jwirr May 2015 #39

He just got started! Maedhros May 2015 #44

Holdin' yer breath are ya? WillowTree May 2015 #45

O'Malley has the right to run if he wants, and he'd likely support Clinton if he was not running. tarheelsunc May 2015 #47

Series? MoonRiver May 2015 #49

That's absurd. Anyone who wants to run, should run. We're a Big Tent. nt MADem May 2015 #53

That's not what some said about Nader. But then they didn't say that about rhett o rick May 2015 #63

Perot got Clinton elected--he split the race three ways. MADem May 2015 #71

Take a hike son, take a hike. HERVEPA May 2015 #58

You probably have that reversed. I'm not sold on O'Malley, but he's much more electable and could Joe the Revelator May 2015 #62

Lol! zappaman May 2015 #64

I refuse to respond to this stupid OP. Koinos May 2015 #67

I see what you did there... MineralMan May 2015 #74

I see...so you want a coronation for Bernie? brooklynite May 2015 #68

More progressives in the debates the better. RichVRichV May 2015 #69

I had hoped this was a joke deutsey May 2015 #70

Not a joke, just a fake. nt scarletwoman May 2015 #73

Ah. deutsey May 2015 #90

That's ridiculous. The Dems need a strong bench, not a game of patty cake with only two candidates. Hekate May 2015 #75

If another candidate has announced and it would split the progressive vote then the non Democrat Thinkingabout May 2015 #76

I believe O'Malley is running for VP, to help HRC - his entire speech was what Bernie's been saying peacebird May 2015 #77

He was a big Hillary backer in 2008 oberliner May 2015 #78

Besides, they could team together and O'Malley be the VP candidate.... on point May 2015 #79

Not. I have reserved Julian Castro for VP...in my own little mind... libdem4life May 2015 #84

No, thanks. bigwillq May 2015 #80

I heard that after 50 years of public service and getting elected, it's Bernies Turn libdem4life May 2015 #81

You know who should drop out? FSogol May 2015 #85

Isn't it possible that he will instead split the establisment vote? drm604 May 2015 #86
