O'Malley to Campaign On 'Daily Show' Monday Night

With little to no bounce received from last week’s Democratic presidential candidates debate, former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley is hitting various talk shows this week.

First up, an appearance Monday night on “The Daily Show With Trevor Noah,” which airs at 11 p.m. ET on Comedy Central.

On Tuesday, O’Malley will appear on “The View,” which is urging viewers to tweet questions to the panel.

O’Malley joined former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Sen. Bernie Sanders and other candidates in the first Democratic debate of the 2016 campaign Tuesday night in Las Vegas.

A new CNN/ORC poll released Monday showed that most of those who tuned in to the debate scored Clinton with the evening’s best performance, which gave her a few points of increased support. Poll numbers show Clinton at 45 percent, followed by Sanders at 29 percent. And Vice President Joe Biden, who hasn’t said if he is running for president – although rumors were circulating Monday that he is in -- and did not participate in last week’s debate, follows at 18 percent.

O’Malley had less than 1 percent support in the poll.

Here’s what Len Lazarick of the Maryland Reporter said, in part, about O’Malley’s first debate showing: “He did well enough when he had the floor, although his opening statement had that highfalutin tone that comes across as heartfelt insincerity.

… He did not fare well in the first question which had him defending his zero tolerance policing strategy as mayor, reminding voters of the Baltimore riots in the spring and undermining one of his basic themes: I have governed for 14 years and governed well.

…O’Malley just did not seem to make the case of how he would be more competent and thoughtful than Clinton, or more passionate about the economic problems of the country than Sanders.”

The former Baltimore mayor (1999-2007) and Maryland governor (2007-2015) joined the race for the presidential nomination in May.
