That was then, this is now, but wait, before we go forward, let that prophetic statement sink in a moment.
O'malley is actually representative of the party, and it's something to celebrate. His collapse and a possible prison stint.

But here's the real headlines. :thumbup:

Martin O'Malley Admits To Gerrymandering In Maryland Lawsuit Deposition

Former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley admitted that he, along with other Maryland Democrats, gerrymandered the state's 6th district to oust long-time Republican incumbent Rep. Roscoe Bartlett in 2012, the Baltimore Sun reported Wednesday.

A lawsuit filed in 2013 alleged gerrymandering has been moving through Maryland's courts, forcing Democrats to talk about what the Baltimore Sun says many already suspected: Democratic redistricting was unconstitutional. Following the 2010 census, Democrats expanded Bartlett's 6th district into the heavily-Democratic Montgomery and Frederick counties.

"That was my hope," O'Malley told attorneys in his deposition. "It was my intent to create ... a district where the people would be more likely to elect a Democrat than a Republican."

He succeeded.

WOW! Its usually only against the law when the Republicans are accused of it. Of course when the republicans are accused of it its racism.     Dems are gerrymandering, who would have thunk :rolleyes:

This whole redistricting thing should be done by computer, completely void of party.
The Dims have all but destroyed Ca through Gerrymandering, but the GOP is guilty as well, except they use it to destroy Conservatives chances of garnering more power, as evidenced with Alan West and how they stole his district out from under him.

But yeah, it's odd how nothing is being said about this corrupt act, because had it been the right, there would be calls for Impeachment.

Didn't the DNC already decide he's toast? He got less support than Donald Trump from the DNC.

Probably along with Hillary campaigning from a hospice in upstate New York, Bernie from one of his three houses, Joe Biden riding around the country on a beer float and Al Franken in a diaper.

Maybe he's smarter than we give him credit for. He knew he was about to be indicted, but managed to milk the DNC just long enough for attorney fees, now he's copping a plea for testimony against the party.
I don't think people realize the implications of his testimony....
Wow, where's CNN on this?  :rolleyes:

Yes, but with more walkers and hearing aids.
No, it's a promo for Commiecare and the leftist claim that they can make you young again, and in the case of old dead Commies, they will reanimate them, whether you like it or not.
