"Amid a vicious winter storm on Monday that forced some presidential campaigns to cancel their scheduled stops in Iowa, only Martin O'Malley decided to press on.

And one man at his last event, the only person to show up, in fact, "was glad to see me," the former Maryland governor said. But he still would not commit to caucus for O'Malley."

Alright, so the headline is a bit deceiving; there was a snowstorm occurring, and the other candidates all cancelled except for O'Malley. But it still struck me as humorous!

Great picture, too!
 
That's awesomely hilarious.
 
What remains unclear to me is exactly how this guy is enriching himself. He's clearly not running for president.
 
I see Pataki is quitting the race finally.
 
:lamo Funny headline. But none the less I honestly think O'Malley is just ahead of his time when it comes to a presidential run. I think come 2024 he will be a good candidate for the Democrats.

Yeah, I'm not really sure that's true. Unless O'Malley can lose the fake, plastic look on his face and actually argue with some amount of passion, I don't see him winning any presidential nomination.

Passion may not be his thing. It ends up looking like "dork face".

Being fair...the story DID say that this was after a long day of events and it was the last event of the night and in terrible weather.

That isn't me. It just looks like me.
