from TBogg at Raw Story:
What if Elizabeth Warren went back in time and smothered Baby Hitler in his crib?
____ If you have been perambulating about the internet these past few days, the above is exactly the kind of linkbait bullshit narratives that are being peddled by people who have wearied talking about President of New Jerseymerica Chris Christie or whether Rand Paul was the real life inspiration for the J.L. Borges short story, Pierre Menard, Author of the Quixote. It seems that frustrated writers lacking hobbies have turned their lonely eyes to the Democratic side of the 2016 presidential election which is just around the corner, if by corner, you mean: three years from now. But with Hilary Killary Clinton pretty much chillaxing with the nomination ripe for the taking (providing she doesnt rehire Mark Penn, aka The Man Who Could Fuck Up A Baked Potato) there isnt a whole lot of tension the likes of which you can find on a daily basis on the Republican Wingnut Flavor of the Week side . . .
I love Elizabeth Warren. I would totally have her baby if she would have me. You love Elizabeth Warren. We all love Elizabeth Warren. Someday Elizabeth Warren t-shirts may very well become as ubiquitous as Che Ts. But, outside of the hazy crazy patchouli-scented fever palaces that are the comment sections of the manic progressive websites, nobody really thinks that Warren could, would, or should run an insurgent primary campaign against Clinton. And, to be quite frank, those who think Warren should run to in order to start a conversation are the kind of people who have attempted this kind of thing in the past and , as my grandmother used to put it, dont have dick to show for it.
I cant say whether Scheiber really thinks this Warren for POTUS groundswell is a thing (of course we have yet to hear from Lady Lynne Forester Sniffnose Wobblebottom LaDeeDah de Rothschild lately, and Jeebus knows that where the trade winds have taken her these past few months) or if hes just trying to jack up page views for TNR owner Chris Hughes. But the whole piece reeks of inside-baseball I-used-to-play-Risk chin-stroking navel-gazing hey-look-what I just-pulled-out-of-ass,-you-guys bullshit. And I mean that with great respect . . .
But, you know, Warren totally could run because, as Cokie Roberts might put it: its out there now, which is almost as good as a fact when youre working the Villager cocktail weenie circuit where everything is a horse-race for their amusement and they create the reality in which we are supposed to live
