Elizabeth Warren is throwing her name into the Biden bowl in hopes that he will pick her out for a spot on his cabinet. Why does she keep turning away from us?



I remember when she was running for her seat the last time. Her challenger Geoff Diehl was campaigning like a mad man and where was Warren? She was out of state campaigning for other Democrats? She told us her number one concern was the People of Mass but she really does have her eyes on DC. Despite Diehl telling us what Warren was really up to the voters handed her an easy victory.





I think it is wrong that Warren is so eager to leave us behind for her DC ambitions.

And what part of this comes as a surprise?

I always got the impression she was looking to leave MA politics as soon as someone would offer her a position.

Yep. Even after "promising" her full intent was to serve out her term as Senate. Those of us with a clue saw her coming from a mile away.

Suppose she does join the Biden admin, which might be very likely.

Rather than maintaining status as finger-pointing 'know nothings', I suggest the MA GOP base actually field a competitive candidate for likely open seat, rather than simultaneously lamenting it's high-polling 'RINO' Governor and Warren.

Like ... there are solutions to your Warren "problem", but that means being honest with yourselves and fielding someone like ... or literally ... Charlie Baker. Whatever your opinions may be, Geoff Diehl is not a 'Rockefeller' centrist Republican like Baker and a majority MA electorate will not support a politician aligned with Trump. Running Diehl was DOA.

Trump is yesterday's news dude. The Dems will eventually have to come up with a new narrative, something besides being anti-Trump (even in Massachusetts).

I'm not a fan of her but what's the big deal? Many people move from local to state to federal etc. That's the way it usually goes. You aren't going to see Trump run for the mayor of Fargo ND etc.

I don't watch debates or speeches. I just care about two words. Voting Record.

Warren isn't always to the left (especially on foreign policy) then you might think. If it isn't what they actually voted for well its just hot air.

I'm independent. If I like a candidate it does not mean I'm a member of their party but rather the issues they brought up and voting makes sense.
