(15,429 posts)8. I supported Gary Hart in 1984.
I think I feel about him what many former Edwards supporters must feel about Edwards.

(2,800 posts)11. It does look like O'Malley is bringing some real talent into his potential campaign.
Old friends from the Hart campaign. Bill Hyers from de Blasio's campaign. Lis Smith.
He is loyal to his friends, and they are loyal to him.
