Elizabeth Warren: ‘I am not running for president'

[MADem]

90. She isn't running. You're just going to have to "get over it."

Barring ill health, HRC is the candidate. Only someone who is completely unschooled as to how politics works thinks otherwise.

Again----Warren isn't running. She's a smart woman and she knows how to say no. She hasn't raised any money, she hasn't made any Fifty State connections, and she barely won her election here in MA (as anyone who was actually here in MA remembers---it was touch and go for awhile).

She was struggling for votes even when Scott Brown was doing stupid shit like THIS:

She had to push back accusations that she used native heritage (though she isn't on any tribal rolls and there's no genealogical path to native ancestry) and benefitted from "affirmative action" (she didn't) in her hiring at Harvard. The issue was muddied because Harvard used HER to plump up their "faculty of color" bona fides.

It wasn't a cakewalk. It was a nasty, bruising slog and it was exhausting. I don't know why people from outside MA have this idea that she cruised to a coronation--she barely pulled it off. With a SHITLOAD of money, too. They kept coming at her, they would not stop. I don't blame her for not wanting to deal with that sick shit.

She is a wonderful US Senator--and that's where she needs to stay. At least until President Hillary Clinton appoints her as Fed Chair.
