I think the contrast between Hillary and O'Malley is key and will really show people that they should be looking harder at supporting O'Malley.

Then, Hillary did a townhall and another visit post-AFL-CIO event while Sanders did a massive rally post-event. I hope O'Malley is doing some kind of public event.

Clinton, the former secretary of state for President Barack Obama, and Sanders, Vermont’s Independent senator running for a spot on the Democratic ticket, will speak to Nevada workers and union officials on Tuesday. O’Malley, the former Maryland governor, will speak the following day. The AFL-CIO is closing the event to the media and will pass its list of goals and priorities for the upcoming year. Clinton and Sanders will follow up on their appearances by speaking to reporters Tuesday at town hall meetings in North Las Vegas. O’Malley will meet with media Wednesday at the Luxor.
