Martin O’Malley Cautioned To Ease White House Dream And Be ‘Loyal Soldier’ To Hillary

Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley has been holding off an announcement on his White House intent: He’s been waiting, along with several other Democratic potential candidates, for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to decide to run and either free up or grab up key campaign contributor dollars.

But now the Maryland Democrat seems to be shrugging off Mrs. Clinton’s shadow and taking actual steps toward the higher office. And at least one Democratic strategist said that’s a mistake — that the governor may be better off waiting on the former first lady and keeping open his chances to be her vice presidential pick.

In April, Mr. O'Malley reportedly held a closed-door meeting with political compadres and told them that he spoke with Mrs. Clinton, and that she gave him the thumbs-up he needed to make his own White House decision, Politico reported. Since, Mr. O'Malley has been seen visiting several crucial primary states, campaigning for fellow Democrats and simultaneously making friends with those who may one day help his career.

Hillary doesn't know the first thing about Loyalty, so why should anyone be loyal to her!

Why wouldn't she give him the thumbs up.. He is of no threat to her, it is only in his feeble little mind that he even has a remote possibility of becoming King.

Why would we get one idiot out of the white house just to replace him with another idiot.
Just look at the shape O'Maryland is in. We can't afford another idealistic jerk as president.

O'Malley has demonstrated that he is willing to do what it takes to make government work. He will tax the citizens into oblivion and absolutely destroy business if that is what it takes.

He should have the job.

O'Malley has created a lot of jobs. They just happen to be in other states. Ever hear of the O'Malley alley?

He's a legend in his own mind. Even the democrat hierarchy think he's a bumbling fool and the only reason he is tolerated is because if you say jump-he jumps. He's quite the useful idiot. If his wife had a brain as well, she would tell him to go sit down and shut up and save the family the embarrassment of only getting single digit percentages in any primary. I say let him run. We can have fun with it on the blogs when the numbers come out for the primaries.
