This is great, Steve. elleng Nov 2015 #1

Seems odd that O'Malley has received so little media coverage. Keep this in mind: O'Malley's polling Attorney in Texas Nov 2015 #2

has been fairly consistently stronger than polling for Fiorina, Huckabee, Christie, Kasich, Paul, Graham and Jindal who all get more coverage than O'Malley.

The media seems to treat O'Malley the same way it ignores Pataki and Gilmore, but that is an objectively unfair comparison.

O'Malley has more support than Huckabee, Graham, Jindal, Pataki and Gilmore combined.

Media seems to LOVE the Sanders v Clinton drama, and anyone more (and BETTER) runs the risk of robbing them of that.
