In reply to the discussion: Liz Warren plays political games too [View all]merrily
(45,251 posts)No one who keeps repeating that talking point knows. Warren has been asked if she voted for Reagan while she was a Republican and did not say. She's never said. She could have stayed home or voted for someone else.
I've been a Democrat almost since I said my first word. It was in the air my family breathed. However, that statement doesn't tell you that I have voted for in every single election or that I have voted Democratic in every single election. Though it's none of anyone's damned business, I downright love voting and have never voted for anyone but a Democrat, even some name at the bottom of the ticket I don't know. But, unless I specify that, you don't know. And Warren has never specified.
Defending Warren against a poorly written claim by Tommy Christopher, a writer for the Daily Banter,, that she lied is not an indicium of stupidity. To the contrary.
Warren seems to be the only Democrat on this board that (a) no Hillary supporter wants to see run in the primary and (b)no Hillary supporter even wants to see defended against an attack by an webzine writer who writes worse than a semi-interesting DU poster. Half the article is a slight he imagined that, of all people, Rachel Maddow made to Obama, simply because Maddow introduced Warren the same way she had introduced every legislator on her show since she started in broadcasting.
What do you suppose accounts for (a) and (b) that is? Hasn't it ever, even once, occurred to a poster like you, who considers himself or herself to be smarter than other DUers, to wonder about that, even a little?
