We need her. It's that simple and that profound at the same time.

Other than the obvious (that Warren be elected), my only hope is that her opponent.be a hard right crackpot (please forgive the redundancy) like Ryan or Cruz or Paul so it will be abundantly clear for all to see that the post-1980 pillaging of our country by the right is over and that the screwing over of working families in the name of trickle down Reaganomics is over. They've had their 30+ years to fuck us over and did a fine job of doing just that. Now it's our turn to return the favor, and the place to start is with the repeal of our tax laws in their entirety, to be replaced with a simplified tax code whose central point will be if you make a lot, you pay a lot.
