the same people who gave us Obama are itching to participate in another historic, novelty election.
She is the only candidate the D-party has that can kee the unprecedented ground gained by obama. with Obama's news media propaganda machine intact, watch who the kingmaker is, who makes things happen...the media.

Warren is like the "Kardashians". She is not known for anything important. She has accomplished nothing of substance.

Warren lied on her remume to get an affirmitive action teaching slot at Harvard by claiming she was part indian because some family member way back thought it was true. She did not get hired due to her resume. Harvard wanted to claim "diversity" in its faculty. Warren has no more ties to indians than the Washington Redskins.

The Tea Party is basically a Neo-Confederate movement. What's the left's equivalent, a Neo-Unionist movement?

Senator Elizabeth Warren is the only person with "balls" enough to stand up to the powerful banking lobby.

Against "too big to fail." For more stringent regulations on investment banks. Against corporate personhood...
On the issues - Elizabeth Warren
It's a sad thing that we have gone so far to the right in this country that common sense protections and policies that favor citizens over corporations are now considered radical and leftist.

TEA is an acronym for Taxed Enough Already.

Maybe the TIA Party. Take It All.
Latte party?

By German standards she is a Social Democrat. So she is Center/Left of Center. In Germany she would be left if she would want to pursue a democratic path towards Socialism/Communism. With her Class Warfare Rhetoric she would fit right into the German SPD establishment.
