Elizabeth Warren “is facing tough questions about fundraising and electability,” or so says The Associated Press. She is languishing in fifth place in a spate of polls of Democratic primary voters; Bernie Sanders and Beto O’Rourke are dominating the money race; and her detailed and thoughtful position papers on health care, monopolies and tax policy threaten to define her as the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy Winner of 2020—the candidate who wins a prize from policy wonks and civic-minded pundits, but who never wins the nomination. There’s no single answer for Warren’s slow start.

Beware of the "self-anointed" ones, such as her. She reminds me of some poor schlub´s harridan ex-wife.

I believe that if she would wave her arms about even more, her popularity would rebound.

This woman just tried to convince Mississippi that their votes will count more if they turn the elections over to the Urban Eastern seaboard, coastal California and Chicago.
Then again she is running for the party of fraud.

Senator Warren, have you ever heard the Wolf cry to the Blue Corn Moon?

It´s been a tough couple of days for Squatting Heifer (daughter of Sitting Bulls&^t); she needs to return to the wigwam, crack open a cold bottle of firewater, kick off the moccasins and smoke the peace pipe, now that recreational use is legal.

To make his point that being a Senator is itself an albatross, Greenfield has to tapdance a little too fast down Memory Lane.
To say, "In the quarter-century from Carter to George W. Bush, every president except H.W. Bush came from outside Washington," Greenfield decides to call Obama a "SINO," Senator in name only.
Greenfield writes, "it was a shrewd calculation for Obama to run before four or eight years in the Senate left him looking and sounding too much like a veteran of parliamentary procedure."
At the time, to the contrary, his term as senator was another stop on his "meteoric" career, more proof of his unbounded genius.
No need to excuse Obama, or JFK for that matter, so see that over the last century senators rarely step into the presidency

Senators are joiners, not leaders. Obama won only because he was running against another Senator that actually wanted to lose. With the college cheating in the news I think the left is afraid Trump would make minced meat out of the fake Native American.

Too much emphasis is placed on candidates´ ability to raise money. Raising a lot of money f didn´t help Jeb during the last election cycle.

Faux-a-hantas is a proven liar!!!!
She espouses the most insane lie-beral rhetoric that may appeal to her brain-dead base, but isn´t going to appeal to the sane people in flyover country.
Yet she keeps doubling-down on stupid!!!!!
Of course, if Demon-rats accomplish their goal of destroying the electoral college, then the brain-dead lie-berals in New York City and Los Angeles will elect all future presidents -- so she may have a shot...

When Henry Ford II fired Lee Iacocca, reporters were puzzled.
"Why did you fire Iacocca, after he was so successful for you?"
Ford replied, "I just didn´t like him."
That, Jeffrey, may be the answer you are seeking on Warren.
We just don´t like her.

The only ´hook´ she had was her supposed ´Native American´ heritage. The same ´hook´ she used to gain an unfair advantage in University admissions and University employment throughout her career.
Now that she made the mistake of letting the FACT that she is (as 1023/1024 > 99.44% ) Whiter than Ivory Snow become public knowledge, that ´shtick´ is FINISHED, and the Unseen Hand behind the Green Media Curtain has moved on to younger, noisier, more ´woke´ (extreme) Leftists.
Stick a Fork in her..... Liawatha´s DONE.
