In reply to the discussion: How about Martin O'Malley for POTUS 2020? [View all]ChoppinBroccoli
(3,900 posts)Someone who isn't afraid to drop the gloves and who can get people excited. I'm wondering if that guy might not be the young Kennedy. He certainly doesn't seem to be afraid of a fight. If Joe Biden were younger, he'd be the perfect man for the job too. But at this point, if I can't have my dream candidate (Sherrod Brown, who will never run because his wife won't let him), I think I might be on the Kennedy train. I'm not going to make any decisions until I see the field, but there are a few people I'm keeping an eye on.
Don't get me wrong, O'Malley really endeared himself to me during the campaign, but I wonder about his experience and the fact that he's been out of office for a number of years. People were looking for an "outsider" in 2016, and having seen what a disaster that's been, I think the pendulum will swing back the other way and people will want someone experienced.
