supported him and his policies. So, I think she feels it’s important to set the record straight.

14. Too soon perhaps, but not too soon

to consider the possibility of becoming his running mate. If it worked out that way of course, but in 2015 he wanted her and no one else if he ran.

Two things are for sure, of course, her statement about Sanders assists Biden and reject Sanders. Bet it felt good.

People have been mixing the two of them up for too long.

He saw her as a threat and she tried to avoid confronting him. By the time she did push back, it was too late.

21. She's been saying that all along...

part of her stump speech is comparing her Senate record to his.

Hint: she's had more legislative success in far fewer years on the job. Bernie tends to get too ideological and can't get co-sponsors.

23. Improved veterans' healthcare

...is something big which Bernie Sanders got passed with John McCain.

The 2017 repeal of Obamacare is a big thing which Sanders helped stop. He did rallies and reached out to John McCain who voted to save Obamacare.

every Democrat in Congress supported saving Obamacare and voted against it's repeal. Including Senator Warren.

I guess you'll give him credit next for trying to keep Kavanaugh off the Supreme Court.

24. Oooooo! This is a new track for Elizabeth Warren

Frankly, think she should have done this sooner. The die-hard Bernie supporters were never going to switch. The way they savaged her after her reveal on Bernie's comment about women in the 2020 race, she was far too civil. She should have gone after him and his bully-boys then. Which is too bad because she's a far better candidate, IMHO. After Kamala Harris dropped out, Warren became my second choice after Joe Biden. Now, I don't think she can recover.

Although turn arounds are never out of the question.

Any of the candidates had a concern about a socialist leading the ticket.

One person raised her hand. ONE.

That person was Amy.

So no, Warren hasn’t done more than others.

So yes. But, yea Klobuchar for being courageous enough to raise her hand. I do like her and have going back and forth between her and Warren. I only hit Biden today, because he is the one to take on Sanders, it appears. I can be wishy washy to go with any of our Democrats.
