Following an O'Malley appearance on TV, Washington Post reporter, John Wagner writes:
O’Malley, who is lagging behind Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in early-state polling, was given several opportunities later in the interview to criticize Clinton. O’Malley said voters are seeking something other than “leaders of the past” but declined to criticize Clinton directly.
Whole article with some great O'Malley quotes here. I particularly like this one:
O’Malley, ... said that race appears to be a large part of the motive in the slayings this week of a prominent minister and eight parishioners at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church.
But O’Malley, a former Baltimore mayor, acknowledged he isn’t entirely sure how to address the country’s racial problems.
“I don’t know exactly how we address this,” he said. “Look, we as Americans we all share a very painful racial legacy, and we need to acknowledge it, and we need to take actions to heal it, but I don’t think anybody’s figured out the magic solution to that.”
