Bloomberg's Phil Mattingly has a very interesting take on the possibility of former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley entering the presidential race as Hillary Clinton's campaign continues to implode.
"Here is why those numbers actually matter. It's been a rough month, month-and-a-half for Hillary Clinton. On the news front, based on her email servers, based on the stories about the foundation.
"Her net favorable around general election in the same poll dropped eight points since February. Her ability to maintain those high numbers with Democrats is important primarily because one challenger has already entered the race, in Bernie Sanders, and another is likely to in Governor Martin O'Malley in the next two to three weeks. Her ability to insure that nobody is going to come in and impinge on her ability to lock up this nomination is valuable at this early stage," Mattingly said.
