They do not want O'Malley to gain traction. They want to keep him in the rear view mirror.

It is very frustrating for us who appreciate what O'Malley has to offer.

But he is one heck of a fighter, and they would be foolish to count him out. The more they try to hide him, the more noise he will make.

I don't think they cared for his "legal" challenge to exclusivity.

The irony is that, in this debate issue, the "outsider" Sanders is acting more like a democratic "insider" than O'Malley is.

Things are never what they seem in politics, and I respect our candidate more each and every day.
