then side with Warren? Then Clinton can reap the benefits of appearing like a champion against "predatory lending" (without hurting her friends at Goldman) and a fighter for the little guy.
Clinton would emerge as Warren's BBF, and gee, wouldn't that be a great way to "absorb" the Bernie demographic into her campaign?
I have to give them some points for devious creativity--if this is the case.
However, if DWS and the Clinton camp are visibly, publicly and obviously sabotaging Warren because of her failure to 'go along' then they've just declared war on the base of the Dem party and Sanders supporters during a close primary battle.
I can't believe DWS/the Clinton camp would be so brazenly destructive, stupid and vicious as to sabotage Warren like that. Are they that horrifying?
That's so abusive--that I really hold out hope that they're just playing devious kabuki theater with HRC playing the part of hero to damsel-in-distress Warren (for political purposes that benefit Clinton of course).
Otherwise the corporatist-establishment wing just declared war on the base of their own party.
I guess we shall see how this plays out.
