Governor O'Malley is gaining great momentum in this presidential race.

He got rave reviews for a speech in Iowa this weekend, and a new PPP poll has him up to 7% in Iowa, a major increase from 1% when he announced on May 30. We need your help to keep the momentum going. We have another big fundraising deadline on September 30. Can you help with a contribution today for one of our upcoming September events so the Governor can hit all 99 counties of Iowa this fall?

I watched the speeches of Martin, Bernie & Hillary. While I strongly agree with all three candidates, I would say Martin O'Malley offered the most both in terms of proposals and in terms of enthusiasm.

Specific policy, optimism, leadership qualities and a clear understanding of how we can accomplish the proposals that he advocates.

He's a smart, very engaging person. Both compassionate and energetic. He seems truly like he's in this because he wants to improve things all around. I have no doubt he believes that he is right for the job of President.
