So now that Warren is on her way toward exiting the campaign, Bernie is shocked, absolutely shocked, that a hardy band of his core supporters has been heaping abuse on her non-friggin-stop. This has only been going on his entire campaign, as if he didnt know, and as supporters of any other candidate who got on Bernie Worlds threat radar can tell you. But now that he wants Warrens support hes disgusted. Ok. Me too.
Too little, too late: Sanders condemns his supporters' 'ugly, personal attacks' against Warren
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said Wednesday that he is disgusted by any personal attacks his supporters or anyone else has lobbed at his presidential primary opponent Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.).
MSNBCs Rachel Maddow asked Sanders about attacks some of his supporters have made, tweeting images of snakes and even calling for Warren to be challenged in a primary in her next Massachusetts Senate election.
Sanders told Maddow he was actually disgusted and aghast by online vitriol directed at Warren...

Pro-women PAC Emily's List endorses Elizabeth Warren
Emily's List on Monday endorsed Sen. Elizabeth Warren one of only two women left in the presidential race, along with Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, after Sen. Amy Klobuchar suspended her campaign.
Why it matters: Emily's List is an influential pro-choice PAC dedicated to supporting female Democratic candidates. It helped elect a record-breaking number of women to Congress during the 2018 midterms.
What they're saying:
"From the day I first sat across the table from her, discussing why she should run for Senate, I knew that Elizabeth Warren was exactly the kind of person we need in office. She has run her campaign the way she has governed: with a clear vision for how to build a better America, a plan to put power in the hands of the people, and a campaign that has stood up for and lived progressive values. As she often notes, she is running for president because thats what girls do and she has been an inspiration for women and girls across the country.
Emily's List president Stephanie Schriock
