all three talk about actual issues and all three have specific proposals for dealing with the issues.

Contrast that with the GOP field that complains when they are asked for specifics when they are at the "debate". Very sad that there is only one major party where the candidates are expected to speak to the issues and the other party speaks in slogans.

I like O'Malley's positions on many issues, but in any contest where money plays such a huge factor, personal involvement must play a huge part for O'Malley supporters. Paul Wellstone showed how it can be done, at least on a state level.

Plus so many US voters have such minimal knowledge and enthusiasm for politics.
