"More than a decade
ago, Bill Clinton spotted a political star in the making, someone he
predicted
would go from a big-city mayor to a national leader - maybe
even to the White House. "I won't be surprised if you go all the way,"
Clinton wrote in a 2002 letter to Baltimore's mayor, Martin O'Malley.
In
the years that followed, Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton showed up time
and again as their young ally gained stature as governor of Maryland,
hosting fundraisers, headlining rallies and connecting him to their
sprawling network of political donors.
Now,
O'Malley is just days away from walking down the path Clinton laid out
for him more than a decade ago, as he prepares to announce his
presidential campaign in Baltimore on May 30. And that means
transforming himself from one of Hillary Clinton's most loyal supporters
into her chief adversary for the Democratic nomination." DrudgeReport
