(24,570 posts)I think we as a party would be well served if all 3 candidates were i the high 20s and withinin 5 points of 1st to 3rd.
I think we'd get a lot of really good things being talked about with a lot of specifics
I'd even be good with Chafee and Webb polling better.
I don't like Webb's positions on many things. But I'd like to hear more of what he has to say about them.
It's tough to know what someone means without really hearing them out
O' Malley has some really good ideas that I wish would get more media attention and more discussion
I hope with time, like it did with Sanders, that he'll get a larger and more vocal following
on note: I know it's the O' Malley group. I hope that I haven't violated the rules or offended the group by mentioning other candidates. It was not intended to undermine O' Malley.
I would like O' Malley to get more attention. And I'd like real vetting of positions to happen.
If the mods would like me to adjust my post, I will.
Just ask,
on edit: The more I hear about his positions, the more I like the Governor
Thanks and Good luck
You guys do a really good job of keeping us informed on O' Malley and his platform
If you're wondering about the pumpkin... I like Halloween

As for the pumpkin, soon all the beers will be flavored with it.

(11,833 posts)I'd like more discussion about policy. O'Malley's team has drafted and released very interesting position papers on reforming Wall Street, improving the criminal justice system, strengthening the economy. They deserve discussion. I believe we're all craving real concrete policies that will improve things for working people and include more people in the challenges we face involving civil rights, expansion of opportunities, and expansion of health care and social security. If you read some of those position papers, which others have posted here in this group, I think you'll find some excellent food for thought. No one has a monopoly on good ideas. I hope these good ideas will be shared all around. I hope they catch on in local communities and states and Congress wherever possible.
I appreciate your kindness. That's really why I post here. I enjoy meeting friendly people who support various candidates and those who like me are currently undecided. I love the substantive discussions and love that there are folks here who enjoy them as well. I've really appreciated and enjoyed the posters here in this group who also are supportive of liberal causes. I'll be focusing in the debates on who I feel can implement our causes in the most effective manner.
Oh, and I love Halloween too. It's pretty cool that we're starting to approach that fun time of year. Are you planning on dressing up in any special way this year? Or other ways of celebrating?
