Is NYC Mayor DeBlasio being coy?

2. NY Daily News has weighed in on this as well:

"I don’t know him and I don’t know his work that well. I certainly hope he will address the question of income inequality and provide a very vigorous vision for addressing income inequality in this country," de Blasio said.

He also said he appreciated O'Malley's opposition to the President Obama-backed Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, which de Blasio also opposes, but stressed he didn't know what his "vision" was.

The mayor dodged the question on whether he'd consider endorsing O'Malley - who like him is a Democrat - when he learned more, instead waxing on about Clinton.

"I am ... looking forward to the day when Hillary Clinton lays out her specific vision for addressing income inequality. I think what we’ve heard from her so far is very promising. I think her history on these issues is very powerful," he said.

ahh, politics… I have a feeling he is looking to see who is on board with his Contract with America. This is going to be interesting.

It's nice to see O'Malley getting attention in the NYC region!
