You can hear Warren turning to Hillary and simply saying, "Hold my beer." In fairness, you can't lie about your heritage and expect to have much of a chance, anyway. The minute she started the whole "You didn't build that" routine was the minute she peaked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She knows that she's going down and has decided to cement her base for the future rather than continue to actually try to win. I hope others flame out soon along with her. Beto is looking for an excuse to get out now as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start with something small, instead of racking up failed campaigns. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She deceives people on the eyeball test because she could pass for early 60's at present. Her age will most likely catch up with her by 2024. It is now or never for her in my mind. In her mind the one that rebuffs middle America the most goes on to be the nominee in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is cementing her base for future Senate terms, or book deals, or whatever she will be doing to make her case to the very left people who support her.

She was -reelected in 2018 so her term runs until 2024. Massachusetts has a fairly vibrant Democratic candidate base of which they will be aching to get the new models into office to see what they have on the Presidential level. She will have to show a body of work to get the Senate nomination from her home state which I don't see happening. She would be better off to be from a state that has a shallow pool of warm bodies to run for office like Sanders. Bernie already has Vermont wrapped up so some state like Wyoming or North Dakota for example where you are king (or queen) until you decide to move on.

She’s the Senior Senator from Massachusetts, a state which treats it’s elected Democratic Congresspeople like lords over fiefdoms since 1931. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historically, that has been true in recent times (1980 and onward) but I see it different this time. I don't know that even a younger Kennedy could get by without a reelection effort of some sort. Time will tell. My Mass friends tell me that the party operatives like hearing their state mentioned for the Presidency so I see that coming into play. We shall see.

On the contrary, I think we should extend that practice, and regulate toy candidates like Booker more than real ones. Does every candidate have a different pet issue they're focused on? The DNC platform they come up with at the convention should be...interesting... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From your link: "Biden doesn’t need the formal endorsement of Barack Obama because he’s already received the clearest de-facto endorsement imaginable: Obama wanted Biden in the Oval Office if he ever died or was incapacitated. Obama effectively made his 2020 presidential endorsement in the summer of 2008." I feel pretty confident that Biden's fitness for office was not any kind of a consideration for Obama, other than how it could be used for assassination insurance.
