Doughnuts and coffee with the next President of the United States tomorrow

Martin O'Malley will be up in Sioux City and I am going.. When the smoke clears in the primary/caucus season..he is the most well prepared of the three candidates on our side..

He is starting to gain traction.. his name recognition is now up to 64%.. I am a happy camper

I did have cancer thirty years ago.. ovarian and I have chatted about it now and again with people who are going through treatment or family members and thought maybe that was what you were talking about and thought it was a current health issue .. but now everything is okay.. I know there are a number of chatters with peace in their moniker..

Nothing on his "events" page even close at this point, but I'm sure he'll be ramping up his appearance schedule soon.

...but you still ought to be sure to grab a filled donut!

Lemon or Boston cream beats those cake ones no matter WHO you're eating it with!

and of course got the sticky fingers.. thankfully plenty of napkins.. that is one of the things I love best about Iowa politics.. it is always an event that leaves people standing around and talking.. usually with a doughnut in hand rofl
