Maryland Poll: No To O’Malley 2016 Run

A strong majority of Maryland residents don’t want Gov. Martin O’Malley to run for president in 2016, a new poll says.

According to a Goucher poll released Tuesday, 65 percent of those surveyed do not believe the governor should run for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination, compared with 19 percent who said they think he should. Nine percent said they didn’t know and 7 percent said it depends.

O’Malley — whose second and final term as governor ends in January — has said he is “seriously considering” a potential presidential bid. The Wall Street Journal reported last month that he has told Democratic donors that he would make a run for the nomination even if former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton — widely seen as the prohibitive front-runner should she choose to run — enters the race. He has also recently visited early presidential nominating states like Iowa and New Hampshire to stump for Democratic candidates in the November midterm elections.

I hope the idiot runs and doesn't get one vote in the entire country.

So, 19% would just as soon put a gun to their heads than not have O'Smelly run.

Think bout that.

These are the people who live next door to you.

Think about that as well.

I think it's time you walked outside and talked to your neighbor.

Think about that.

And that should include all the candidates running locally as well, because if you don't, the worst will happen.

There will not be an election in 2016. Obama will declare Martial Law and will declare himself King. That's how it works in a Banana Republic.

The legend in his own mind needs to run for president.
It would give us all something to laugh about when the nothing get single digit percentages in the primaries.
Run Loser Run!
