5. I can't emphasize enough how satisfying it is to hear intelligent conversation. He gets it.

He gets to the heart of things. I think that's his strength. Conservatives go directly to the punitive "solutions". O'Malley seems to see beyond, and find true solutions, or be willing to entertain alternatives. I'm still learning about him, and am only finding inspiration. I think H2Oman said it best when he mentioned no candidate is perfect. If O'Malley or Bernie aren't elected, they have made big contributions to our society through this election cycle. Lots of debunking, and lots of new ideas.
