O'Malley Hits the Heart
As the democratic candidates fight to voice their opinions on gun control, Martin O'Malley wastes no time in attacking the subject using pathos. While senators Clinton and Sanders raise their voices about how they know what to do with this overpowering problem in America, O'Malley talks about the two audience members who lost a daughter to gun violence. This approach immediately engages the crowd and gives O'Malley an advantage.

I agree that this was a strong tactic to appeal to the audience's pathos. I also think the slipped up by focusing too much on pathos, and not explaining his argument.
