20. Elizabeth Warren is breaking her hip-lock to Sanders

Thu Feb 20, 2020, 05:54 PM

Feb 2020

About time. In my mind, she has always been a better candidate, progressive but far more realistic. If she was worried about ticking off Sanders' supporters, it no longer matters; they turned on her as soon as she started making inroads, and then when she dared call Sanders out on his comments about female candidates for 2020.

Calling for health records is a no-brainer. Sanders can squeal all he wants. He broke his promise about disclosing the full medical report. People noticed.

Btw, calling out Bloomberg for 2 stents inserted in the early aughts, doesn't compare to Sanders' recent heart attack. Just doesn't.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

They have. She hasn't. If she doesn't think her ideas are better than Bernie's she should quit. dem4decades Feb 2020 #10

Warren did more than Biden with a soft jab and chuckle about guns. krissey Feb 2020 #18
