Martin O'Malley Breaks Into Song At Iowa Campaign Event.with VIDEO

The former Maryland governor serenaded supporters with a guitar performance.

BEAVERDALE, Iowa -- Former Maryland governor and Democratic presidential candidate Martin O’Malley treated supporters to an impromptu performance on Friday, serenading them during a campaign stop in Iowa.

Following his remarks at a local pub in Beaverdale, O’Malley was handed a guitar, and led a song session while standing on a chair.

“Oh, a guitar, really,” O’Malley said with a smile on his face. “It’s miraculous how these things emerge.” . .

Following O’Malley’s musical performance on Friday, campaign staffers collected nearly a dozen commit-to-caucus forms, a possible sign that voters were digging more than the tunes.
