COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) – Hillary Rodham Clinton has crossed paths recently with two possible Democratic presidential primary competitors: Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

At the University of Maryland on Thursday, Clinton praised O’Malley’s record, along with that of his potential successor, Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown.

A week ago, Clinton said Warren was a “passionate champion” for workers and families.

The midterm elections have put the three Democrats, along with Vice President Joe Biden, before crowds of Democrats who could help energize a future White House bid. They haven’t declared their intentions yet but Clinton remains the dominant Democratic contender if she runs.
