MO'M's debt

I just got a mail from M O'M asking for help in debt relief. Given the amount of money that Hillary pulled in after her campaign in 2008, along with the extremely large "war chest" she currently has from big spenders, it seems entirely reasonable to me that this is something she should take on immediately. It will surely represent a small drop in the bucket to her at this point.

I wonder why this is just coming out. I do like the thought of helping him to retire any possible debt.

I want to thank everyone who contributed to my campaign for their generosity and tremendous support -- with a special thanks to my good friends in the House of Labor and the Maryland Congressional Delegation. Thanks to your involvement, we were able to run our campaign and quickly retire our small debt.

I also want to thank our amazing volunteers who gave so much of their time and energy to our cause. I'm looking forward to working with all of you to ensure that the Democrats keep the White House out of the hands of Donald Trump and that we take control of Congress and State Houses across the country.

None of this would have been possible without your generosity and friendship; I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Our country and our children's future are at stake and we need to hold strong to our progressive values and never stop fighting for what we believe in.
Look forward to seeing you soon,
Martin

O'Malley has $94,361 in the bank. The outside group is short $405,861.

It's a fairly small amount. Hillary and Bernie should split it if it's attributable to O'Malley himself.
