(135,425 posts)Also, she was a sitting cabinet official when she made that comment. Most people would regard it as somewhat unethical for a sitting Secretary of State to jump into "campaign mode" while being interviewed about their work in that office. An unelected cabinet official, appearing on a morning television show (and no doubt taking advantage of government air and surface transportation to make it to the studio--assuming that is where the interview occurred, though I can't tell without a video link), would have to be an idiot to start campaigning for their boss's job on the government's dime, even more so when the boss's own VP hasn't stepped back from consideration--and HRC is no idiot.
I'd bet the contents of my wallet, such as they are, that Warren won't run. And I'm not a gambler.
