6. The DLC and 3rd way recurited O'Malley, but he never joined their groups.

Jul 2015

Both the DLC and 3rd way were pro war war and pro death penalty. O'Malley was against the Iraq war and ended the death penalty in Maryland. He's not a neoliberal.

That is pretty cool. Here's another cool picture... Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #29

Save it for the gullible. 99Forever Jul 2015 #9
Was the Baltimore Sun gullible? They wrote that in 2002. FSogol Jul 2015 #14
Yes. 99Forever Jul 2015 #15
Third Way et al have fredamae Jul 2015 #27
True, he is not. Again, the record of individuals should be checked out and vetted...not merely Jefferson23 Jul 2015 #49
The fact that the DLC and 3rd way tried to recruit O'Malley is reason enough to be leery of him. -none Jul 2015 #54
Politicians get offers, so I don't understand your thinking. n/t Jefferson23 Jul 2015 #60
I bet they haven't tried to recruit Liz Warren. Or that socialist guy. Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #61
You might want to rethink that. I can't suggest enough that it is important to vet Jefferson23 Jul 2015 #63
You think turd way is trying to recruit Liz Warren? OK Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #65
What I am trying to say to you is, there are compromises in their pasts. Jefferson23 Jul 2015 #66
He's their kind of guy. He likes to sit in front of their logo and get his picture taken. Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #70
It's not popular with me but I doubt his supporters have been convinced you have Jefferson23 Jul 2015 #72
Shhhh! He's on a roll. zappaman Jul 2015 #73
LOL. n/t 1StrongBlackMan Jul 2015 #153
Well I think you have to be pretty careful with politicians Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #86
That is a different charge you're making, this would not be under the heading of Third Way Jefferson23 Jul 2015 #88
I'm not sure exactly what kind of example you're looking for. Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #89
I'm not brushing off the police problems, I just don't see how that fits into the Third Way Jefferson23 Jul 2015 #93

I think we should be careful... Even if he isn't Third Way, they could be happy to promote him... cascadiance Jul 2015 #126
There's nothing remotely 'third way' about Martin O'Malley, cascadiance. elleng Jul 2015 #127
I have no reason to believe that O'Malley's in bed with Third Way either... cascadiance Jul 2015 #128
Well, that explains his Super Pac attack on the Progressive in this race. The Third Way sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #46
He does not control "his" Super PAC. Agschmid Jul 2015 #47
Has he apologized to Sanders if he had nothing to do with it? Why would one Democratic sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #50
Please... Agschmid Jul 2015 #51
Nailed it. zappaman Jul 2015 #74
You apparently neglected to read this. Koinos Jul 2015 #77
Martin O'Malley expresses 'extreme displeasure' in PAC publishing anything negative against anyone. Koinos Jul 2015 #78
Good for him. If you think you or anyone else will ever have any success with sabrina 1 Jul 2015 #95
it's not his PAC (aside from your embrace of this bullshit post) bigtree Jul 2015 #48

Actually, I was agreeing with you about those who are alienating themselves. Koinos Jul 2015 #90
Sorry Thinkingabout Jul 2015 #91
Nothing to be sorry about. Koinos Jul 2015 #92
Pushing to cut Social Security is really moving the country forward huh? Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #82
You are wrong on the Third Way wanting to cut social security, they realize it needs some reforms to Thinkingabout Jul 2015 #83

There are three of your trojan horses. Thinkingabout Jul 2015 #85

"Inherently dishonest" is a pretty good description on what is going on here. n/t FSogol Jul 2015 #100
I just can't believe a member of the Democratic Party JustAnotherGen Jul 2015 #104
How is it dishonest? In 2012 Third Way was promoting O'Malley as a hot prospect? Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #107
Recuriting, not promoting. O'Malley was never a member of the 3 way think tank. FSogol Jul 2015 #108
Thanks for pointing out how transparent the OP was JustAnotherGen Jul 2015 #112
Well I agree that it is totally transparent. Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #113

Could you tell this to HFRN? JustAnotherGen Jul 2015 #119
Repeat what? Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #120
I'm really sorry you don't understand politics on any level. Also, there is a vast difference FSogol Jul 2015 #124
So O'Malley has repeat events with Third Way, and stating this fact is considered an unfair attack? Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #125
I said Third Way, meaning the think tank, pushes to cut Social Security Cheese Sandwich Jul 2015 #106
Should never have been brought up in this thread JustAnotherGen Jul 2015 #109
O'Malley would agree - they (third way) are AWFUL. HFRN Jul 2015 #110
