want the blood-letting that a Debate For Two would provide. Then they couldn't possibly feature Ms. Inevitable not framed by two gentlemen, they needed a right flank.

I could have sworn, although my life feed came and went, but it looked like she had glitter in her hair to match the glittery gold suit. No doubt about it, she's got the physical image thing down...she looked attractive. But she's still my second choice.

New CBS News Iowa poll -- Sanders pulls within 5% of Clinton: Clinton 50%, Sanders 45%, O'Malley 4% [View all] Attorney in Texas Dec 2015 OP

Within the poll's margin of error, even Scootaloo Dec 2015 #1

I would suspect that O'Malley supporters would switch to Bernie. n/t Fantastic Anarchist Dec 2015 #5

The two are more similar to each other in position, than either is to Clinton Scootaloo Dec 2015 #6

I see MOE is above 8 points. Sanders could be at 53%, Mom at 12% for all we know emulatorloo Dec 2015 #2

Wonder why O'Malley isn't dropping out Matariki Dec 2015 #8

I think he wants to be VP...then President. I'd be fine with that. He's a good man and politician. libdem4life Dec 2015 #9

That makes sense. Matariki Dec 2015 #10

He is a good man. His 'socialist' smears of Bernie last night didn't sit well with me emulatorloo Dec 2015 #12
