I like Elizabeth Warren very much but I am very disappointed at her attitude after the debate of not shaking hands with Sanders, there was no need for that and all she has done is give republicans, and Sanders' supporters a reason to do what they have done, even though there is no reason to do that, but nonetheless that is me and that is them.

The worst part of all this is that Warren cannot prove that Sanders TOLD HER that, it is a "she said/he didn't say" which you cannot prove. Warren should have kept that to herself, instead maybe say something like "many people have said that a woman cannot win the presidency of the USA, I intend to prove them wrong!" Imagine the applause she would have received, and if Bernie in fact said that, it would have rattled him inside.

EW, wrong move yesterday, no matter what angle you look at it from, an unnecessary action, and as we know, an action has a reaction and so far the reaction has not been favourable.

bashing candidates, and I like them both. I have to say, I think this situation has not painted her in a good light.

You want to lead the country? Set a positive example for your supporters. What’s the downside?
