Maryland Governor O'Malley Said To Challenge Hillary In '16

by JASmius

There are so many things wrong with that headline:

1) It's Hillary who will be challenging Senator Elizabeth "Fauxcahontas" Warren in 2016 - maybe;

2) Hillary is no challenge to anybody; she is the single most overrated pol in the country and always has been.

3) The odds of there even being a 2016 election are dwindling steadily.

So what the devil has Martin O'Malley to do with any of this?

Democratic fundraisers say Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley has told them he would enter the presidential race in 2016 even if Hillary Clinton is a candidate for the party's nomination.

O'Malley had previously indicated that he would likely not run for the Democratic nomination if Clinton was in the race.

So he recognizes that the Empress is a non-entity.  Congratulations on your eyelids retracting, Governor.

But Doug Goldman, an Obama fundraiser, told The Wall Street Journal that he met with O'Malley in the spring and the governor "is making it pretty clear that his ultimate goal is president." 

Boy, is he in for a surprise.

Another fundraiser said he asked O'Malley what he would do if Clinton entered the race, and O'Malley "told me flat out he's going to run either way," the fundraiser disclosed.

A third Democratic fundraiser "said Mr. O'Malley told supporters at an event last year in California without qualification that he was running for president," the Journal reported.

So bleeping what?  Here is a reality check on Martin O'Malley, folks:

1) He's a non-entity with delusions of grandeur.  There isn't any "M.O." buzz, and even if there were a single decibel of it, it would only be because the bumbling indiscretion of his New York counterpart, Andrew Cuomo, has crooked him out of the field before it even approached the starting gates.

2) Martin O'Malley is a white male.  If anybody thinks the Democrat Party is ever going to nominate any but minorities or women ever again, they haven't been paying attention the last nearly six years.  "White guilt" is an infinite electoral resource to the Donks, and they will never leave that well, especially for an Irish non-entity with delusions of grandeur.

3) Martin O'Malley can't become POTUS if Barack Obama doesn't vacate the office.  And he won't.

So why did I bother posting about this masturbatory story?  Because somebody has to deliver reality checks, and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper wasn't available.
