While the phrasing was perhaps a bit clumsy, Jon Huntsman landed one of the most stinging punches of the 2012 GOP primary race square on Mitt Romney’s jaw when he dubbed him a “perfectly lubricated weathervane.” The essence of that critique — that Romney calibrated his message to appeal to the audience he was addressing at any given moment and had no core principles of which to speak — resonated.
More than a handful of political analysts have dubbed Hillary Clinton the Democratic Party’s Mitt Romney. Aloof, disingenuous, plutocratic, perhaps a bit entitled, and forever struggling to achieve authenticity; Clinton’s core appeal is that of a generic Democrat. She has not yet crafted a compelling rationale for her candidacy, and she hasn’t even begun to answer those who ask why an uncommitted voter should back her for the presidency.
The three ring circus that is the Democrat nomination process is getting more entertaining.
O'Malley DID NOT call Hillary a "perfectly lubricated weathervane".
That was Huntsman on Romney.
O'Malley does criticize Hillary for taking stances based on polls not principles but didn't use the OP's term.
I'm not a Hillary fan by any stretch, but as a traditional Democratic voter, to see extreme right wingers fall over themselves to portray Hillary as the devil may well lead me to vote for her anyway. Whey I hear Rand Paul praising the Koch brothers, I have even less hope that a GOP candidate with any sense is out there.
So O'Malley didn't say that about Hillary? I am not sure what the title of this thread has to do with the OP.
It has to do with the inevitable never-ending drumbeat of anti-Hillary propaganda that is coming and will continue from the resident GOP shills, who sadly don't even get paid to lick the Koch brothers boots for them, they just do it because it is their alternative to team sports..or having a life. .

Seems to me that Paul was the sane rational one here.
