Martin O'Malley Clashes With GOP Over Link Between Climate Change, Islamic State-Bloomberg
The Democratic presidential candidate scores a victory in the attention primary.
For a politician who has been struggling to register in the polls, Democratic presidential candidate Martin O'Malley scored a victory this week: The chairman of the Republican National Committee attacked him by name. . .
The O'Malley campaign was more than happy to engage with the RNC. “If Republicans want to have a debate about either foreign policy or science, we have a message for them: bring it on. On both topics they are trapped in the past,” said Lis Smith, O'Malley's deputy campaign manager, in a statement.
“When faced with cold, hard scientific facts,” she continued, “they bury their heads in the sand and deny the adverse effects of climate change on the planet.”
A spokesperson for the RNC didn't return a message seeking comment.
