(10,494 posts)and gaining the WH would have speeded things up. It is a means to an end, not the end of the line. He will help her defeat Trump, but wants to be there as a reminder that a good many of us want more Progressive policies and continue to build the movement.

(819 posts)Pretty destructive trying to enroll more people into the party and get involved by running for office. Modeling a pretty significant Presidential run without Wall St. cash.
Pretty awful stuff.

(819 posts)HRC's selling point to the masses that are in Ind., and GOP types is "I'm Not Trump." It is also an excuse for her to veer right to woo those voters. It isn't voting FOR Hillary, it is voting AGAINST bst-crazy Trump. You over estimate her appeal to the masses. Should Trump drop out of moderate Republican steps in, Hillary will be in trouble. Esp. in the territory of courting the moderate Republicans. If they have option between the two and it isn't Trump, they will go for the real Republican.
Warren has lost some progressive respect. Many of us watched her interview with Bill Moyers. To now allow herself to get wooed into the Wall St enabling Clinton Camp doesn't win trust or confidence. We lose her in Senate where she was effective in policy and identifying the banks and rigged financial system to cozy up to HRC, who she KNOWS first hand from experience she shared in Moyers interview? There is a whiff of hypocrisy with that move.
