Via Weekly Standard:

As former Maryland governor Martin O’Malley emerges as perhaps the most significant threat to Hillary Clinton in her quest for the Democratic nomination for president, the Bill, Hillary, and Chelsea Clinton Foundation may be trying to downplay O’Malley’s connections to the organization. At the annual meeting in June 2014 for the Clinton Global Initiative, O’Malley appeared on stage with Bill Clinton to announce O’Malley’s involvement with a project of CGI called the Mid-Atlantic Infrastructure Exchange (MAX). Clinton praised O’Malley as “a terrific governor of Maryland” and noted his education reforms in particular [remarks related to O’Malley begin around 5:00 in the video]:

Clinton went on to note that “Maryland at least twice during [O’Malley’s] two-term tenure has been voted the best run state in the country.” The former president was optimistic about O’Malley and the Democratic Party’s future in Maryland, predicting, “his lieutenant governor who he endorsed … I think will succeed him [as governor in November 2014 election,] showing that the people of Maryland like where they’re going and believe in what they’re doing.” Republican Larry Hogan actually went on to beat O’Malley’s lieutenant governor, Anthony Brown, in a shocking upset in the 2014 race.
