Martin O’Malley, former Maryland governor and long-shot presidential candidate, said Thursday he feared Hillary Clinton’s email scandal is tarnishing the Democratic Party.

“I think we as a party … are making a huge mistake when we allow the brand on our side of this national debate everyday to be questions about what did Hillary Clinton know? When did she know it? Did she wipe her server?” O’Malley said in an interview on a New Hampshire radio station. “These are not the issues and the answers to problems that the American people, feel even if the answers come out, will make life better around their kitchen table.”
