Jim Geraghty dug up this photo of Ray Rice in attendance when Maryland Governor Martin O’Malley signed an “anti-cyber-bullying” bill into law. Geraghty noted the “awful irony” of Ray Rice being an anti-bullying activist.

But just watch O’Malley leap into action to distance himself from Rice and use the occasion for some self promotion.
The video released this morning of this domestic assault was horrible, shocking, and reprehensible. #RayRice #Ravens (1/3)

@GovernorOMalley governor, had you seen or heard about the video before today?
