3. Bernie has worked with Republicans

for years. Even the Republicans in Burlington when he was mayor, say he was fair to them, and they support him.

For what it's worth, O'Malley can use this time to hone his Presidential run in 4 years. If Bernie wins, I'm not sure he will stay for the 8 years. He would most likely want to pass the baton on to someone who shares his values, and that would be O'Malley.

Apparently, there are some problems with his work with the police and POC when he was mayor. That popped up on the radar when he first announced.
