UPDATE:. Looks like she is now in front of Sanders!

[comradebillyboy]

1. Go Liz.

3. Hey sheshe

It would be super cool if Elizabeth's face was shown on the home count page. Two incredible women to balance the numbers!

[backtoblue]

7. Holy moly my wish was granted!!!

Present from the Easter Bunny!!!

[sheshe2]

15. Ding Ding Ding

[Miigwech]

62. My choice!!!

[murielm99]

4. K&R

[backtoblue]

10. The Primary header is talent times a million!!!

Warren is now in the top four. All of these are my favorites and it's a good day.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

5. She's had some good press this week.

[backtoblue]

6. The more she's given a national platform,

The most supports she's going to win. Her messaging is clear, she's intelligent, and she walks the walk.

I have nothing but respect for her!

[itsrobert]

8. Great

[sharedvalues]

9. +1 Liz. She will get things done !

[Tom Rinaldo]

11. Our top 5 sure are tightly bunched. All within 4%

I am glad to see Warren getting serious attention here.

[barbtries]

12. this outcome in a way proves

that making decisions based on some faulty idea of how it will play out is WRONG. Warren was the first candidate to come straight out and say yes we need to impeach. The democrats in the House should right now stop fretting over politics and do the right thing. we cannot KNOW how it will play out, but we do KNOW that the greatest danger to our democracy is living in the WH and committing crimes daily.

Warren took a stand and it was correct and she gained support for doing it. Honestly sometimes I think that is all I want from a candidate, one who says what they're about. no obfuscation, no playing the room, just stating this is what i plan to pursue as president.

[ecstatic]

66. +1. nt

[mopinko]

13. not any more.

i just put her over.
i have been harris so far, but at this point, i am all about impeaching the bastard.

[backtoblue]

14. I love you!

I love Harris and she is my second choice.

Women unite!

[robbedvoter]

19. Absolutely! Warren is my second too!

and love her more every day.

[snpsmom]

47. Same here. n/t

[prodigitalson]

16. She is Bernie without the Socialist albatross...nt

[robbedvoter]

18. and also, with the know how to put her policies in action. Woman too.

the good side of 70 as well.

[prodigitalson]

28. yep. nt

[brer cat]

22. She is Elizabeth Warren.

You are diminishing her.

[prodigitalson]

26. I'm saying she is a more viable candidate who advocates similar positions..nt

[backtoblue]

27. +1

I do think she can pull some Sander supporters though.

Im tired of the two being compared as the same. They are not.

[Hortensis]

33. I'm sure she will. With the new media attention to Sanders,

more will understand what supporting Sanders would involve them in. Free choice as always, but hopefully much better informed.

[prodigitalson]

34. I think they are the two most progressive candidates

who are toward the head of the pack. Comparison is inevitable.

[Hortensis]

29. Ohhhh, she's extremely different in temperament and

methods, but agree with the sentiment. Elizabeth is a competent and proven very strong progressive for those focused on making progress happen.

[Steven Maurer]

39. No, she's Bernie without the BACKSTABBING albatross

Big difference.

You don't get to shit all over the Democratic party and hire as your top campaign operatives people who voted for Jill Stein and just pretend that everything's peachy.

[prodigitalson]

44. I have no problem with that as long as they have repented nt

[Steven Maurer]

67. Nomiki recently went onto FOX to bash the DNC, so that's a big fat NO nt

[prodigitalson]

70. That is very disappointing

and not at all helpful.

[robbedvoter]

17. That makes me very happy!

On 2 counts!

[NurseJackie]

20. Looks like Warren is *AHEAD* of BS to me.

Warren is now tied with Sanders

Looks like Warren is ahead of BS to me.

[backtoblue]

23. She wasn't when I posted this.

[NurseJackie]

25. Both at 8% (rounded off, I suppose) but...

... looks like she's ahead by enough to knock BS out of the top-five in the blue-banner at the top of the pages.

I think it's a safe bet that things will bounce around, back and forth, for a few days.

Still, it's nice to see Warren's face instead of BS.

[BlueFlorida]

69. Yaah .. BS is no longer on the front page. nt

[shenmue]

21. Very cool

[lark]

24. OMG that is such excellent news!

I like her a lot.

[Mike Nelson]

30. Congratulations to...

… Warren and her supporters! She's had an impressive week.

(I think she's ahead and the 8%s are rounded figures.)

[SunSeeker]

31. Good to see people rewarding her courage and principle. nt

[backtoblue]

38. Yes. And her persistence!

[sheshe2]

48. Never the less, She Persisted.

She is my Senator, met her once.

[ananda]

32. She will have my vote.

.. if she is the nominee.

[backtoblue]

35. .

And Beto will have mine if he gets it!

[mcar]

36. She deserves the attention!

[JonLP24]

37. I like Sanders & Warren both

I never before seen driving a wedge between the two until this election when they don't even do that with each other.

[backtoblue]

40. Not trying to diminish Sanders

I actually supported him last time around before voting for Hillary.

I'm just excited that there are now two amazing women in the top four and that Warren is getting love.

[JonLP24]

42. I didn't mean you

I was just reading the comments and not just this thread. I remember before 2016 there were a lot of people here ideologically progressive that had love for both Sanders & Warren and it seems like now Warren is acceptable while Sanders is treated as a problem. Anyways I accidentally stepped in the wrong forum.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

56. Precisely!! They're BOTH awesome and would make a great team!!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[Paladin]

41. Good.

So nice to see that Warren's out-front support of impeachment is allowing her to gain ground. Particularly against Sanders.

[nycbos]

43. Excellent

And yes I fully get the irony of using Mr. Burns.

[samnsara]

45. GOOD FOR LIZ!

[YOHABLO]

46. I can't wait to hear her debate the other candidates. Should be very interesting.

[backtoblue]

52. I would love

To be a fly on the wall while her and Pete discussed how to save the country. Both of their life experiences and intelligence would make for an amazing one on one conversation.

[Bradshaw3]

49. Brilliant, experienced, decent, accomplished, fights the good fight ...

... without regard to polls, likeable, smart, enthusiastic, knowledgeable and gets things done for the average person. She would be a great president.

[Cha]

50. BS is gone from the top of the page.

[liberalmuse]

51. She's my personal favorite right now.

She's one of the few offering substance. She's willing to call out and fight corruption. I don't want a watered-down candidate. We need someone who's going to kick ass and take names.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

54. I can see why!!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[backtoblue]

55. There's a T-shirt I wanna get

It says:

WARREN
Has
A
Plan
For
That

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

53. Congrats Elizabeth!! She IS awesome!!

Bernie & Elizabeth 2020!!!
Welcome to the revolution!!!

[Bleacher Creature]

57. She's more progressive than Sanders, her proposals are more thought out, and she's a loyal Democrat.

I'm not sure how it's even a close call.

[gulliver]

58. Sanders gives the former Obama-voting Trumpies a chance to climb back up to reality.

A whole bunch of them would have voted Sanders over Trump. They'll never vote for Warren, but a lot of them would like to say they voted for Sanders over Trump in 2020.

I want a supermajority in the Senate and House in addition to the Presidency. As a strong Hillary supporter in 2016, I'm leaning Sanders at this point.

[pdsimdars]

59. Either one of them is just fine with me.

[Gothmog]

60. I really Like Senator Warren

[McKim]

61. She is Straight Arrow

I support her because she is truthful, most knowledgeable and with an unwavering moral compas.
She is the candidate who knows what she wants and isn’t afraid to ask for it. ‘She sees the importance of impeachment for our democracy!

[BooScout]

63. Whoop! There it is!

[cwydro]

64. Go Elizabeth!

I love her stand on impeachment.

[ecstatic]

65. The other candidates left me with no choice but to switch

I'm so incredibly disappointed with the cowardly and/or cynical stances the other candidates have taken. Right is right and wrong is wrong.

If democrats fail to act, they won't be able to say that it's just the republicans who have refused to stand up to trump and defend our democracy.

[artislife]

68. This is true

From your post

If democrats fail to act, they won't be able to say that it's just the republicans who have refused to stand up to trump and defend our democracy.

[BeckyDem]

71. It's going to be between these two.
