He will be announcing on May 30. HE has leased space as a campaign HQ. Raine1967 May 2015 #7

O'Malley was re-elected Governor in 2010 by a wider margin demwing May 2015 #18

In this forum, posters discuss candidates, including Hillary, freely. merrily May 2015 #20

O'Malley's problem is finding space between Sanders and Clinton. geek tragedy May 2015 #23
