Martin O’Malley Erupts On Debate Schedule: “What The Hell Kind Of Democratic Party Is This?”
Democratic presidential candidate and former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley criticized his party’s debate schedule on Monday, calling the format of six debates a “sad state of affairs.”
“I think that having more debates would certainly have all of the candidates take positions on issues,” O’Malley said in an interview with Boston Herald Radio. O’Malley is positioning himself as a progressive alternative to Hillary Clinton, but is currently polling below 2% nationally.

Exactly, Martin.

So beefcake is complaining he won't get enough exposure. Sounds like he's a rarity though as the others are hiding from having to do debates.

six debates isn't enough to get ideas across? Seriously?

Six debates is plenty fer cripes sake. He's whining because he's not higher in the polls, sorta like a few of those Republican candidates who were relegated to the kiddie pre-debate on Fox because they were too low in the polls.

oh, clearly, O'Malley is desperate for some name recognition. Most potential voters couldn't ID him in a lineup, let alone parse his positions.

You mean low information voters...
Oh, that's right. I just described the bulk of democrat voters...

gratuitous slams don't do much past display your own ignorance, TB. How many GOP voters could ID Pataki in a lineup?

TB, I'll bet you've never heard of this newest Republican presidential candidate, Esteban Oliverez, without first Googling.

I thought Estoban was a South American drug lord.

Oh, he's a centrist work-across-the-isle type of politician. Totally off of most Republican's radars even it they looked.
