I believe she will because she exudes something lacking on both sides at the moment ...

Maybe she just isn't a cheap politician that would exploit such a manufactured scandal.

I think Kucinich was held back by the PTB "keeping" Edwards in the campaign...

Spot on! Warren motivates even the disenchanted politically astute to work harder

I would get on a bus to help her campaign, or walk if needed, gladly. Motivated, highly.

Absolutely, Krugman too. Totally clean house from the previous regime. The 90s are long over.

I think if Edwards had pulled out a lot earlier, Kucinich would have picked up a lot of his voters..

Doesn't count cuz they're bashing Obama and Clinton...not Warren. 100% positive for Warren here!

And in a different way, so is Liz. She gets just as much attention/support 'not running'.

When Warren ran for Senate in 2012, did she forego organization and fundraising?
