O’Malley forwards a ‘flattering’ Clinton e-mail in an attempt to make a point.WaPo

An image of Clinton’s e-mail is included in a pitch O’Malley sent via e-mail Tuesday to his supporters, relaying that he was “flattered to read it.”

“Here’s the thing,” O’Malley goes on to say. “I didn’t win in Maryland by acclamation. I won because of supporters like you. I won because we fought for progressive change. … We made progress where it counts, and I’m happy to see Secretary Clinton thought so, too. Democrats are not going to win THIS election by acclamation either. We needed more debates to get our positions on the issues in front of voters.”

In his e-mail, O’Malley asks recipients to sign an online petition calling for the Democratic National Committee to sanction more debates (and donate to his long-shot campaign if they'd like).

speak but it is even more shaky when needing a definite outcome that logic will prevail, but oh well, we can hope
