This means Warren: Obama backs challenger to Hillary

President Obama has quietly promised Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren complete support if she runs for president — a stinging rebuke to his nemesis Hillary Clinton, sources tell me.

Publicly, Obama has remained noncommittal on the 2016 race, but privately he worries that Clinton would undo and undermine many of his policies. There’s also a personal animosity, especially with Bill Clinton, that dates from their tough race six years ago.

A former Harvard law professor and administration aide, Warren would energize the left wing of the Democratic Party just as Obama did against Clinton in 2008.

Thanks to her outspoken stand against big banks and the top 1 percent, Warren is the darling of progressives. She won her Senate seat thanks to millions of dollars in donations from outside Massachusetts, including from rich environmentalists and Hollywood celebrities.

Obama has authorized his chief political adviser, Valerie Jarrett, to conduct a full-court press to convince Warren to throw her hat into the rin

“Barack, Michelle and Valerie have been talking about Elizabeth Warren for quite some time,” says an Obama administration source. “Valerie has told Warren that Obama is prepared to throw a great deal of money and organizational support behind her.

“The Obamas believe that Warren sees things from the same ideological point of view as they do. She is a committed progressive who, like Obama, wants to transform America into a European-style democratic-socialist state.”

Bill Clinton has worried for some time about Obama backing another candidate, as I revealed in my book “Blood Feud.”

I don't know why this is a surprise Obama and the Clintons have hated each other ever since Obama came to Washington. All that remains to be seen is whether the Arkansas Mafia still has the power it used to.

Don't be surprised if Hillary goes in front of Congress and puts all of the blame for Benghazi on Obama, she'll say that she wanted to do something and Obama wouldn't allow it.

Gee, I almost feel sorry for Hillary. She was destined to be the prez before Obama usurped her in ‘08. Then she had to suck up as his SOS. And she takes the major blame for Benghazi. Now Obama is pulling strings to see Warren is selected over Hitlery.

Did I say I almost feel sorry? Nah... Schadenfreude!

I can see it rolling out...

By Nov 2016 the journ-0-lists have portrayed her as America’s first native American female POTUS, fighting for the middle class against Wall $treet and Big Banks.

Throw in a minority VP for the entitlement army votes and student loan forgiveness for the millennials and you’ve got a formidable candidate, IMHO.

Wise FReepers have convinced me that the Chicago Mob has mutually assured destruction with the Clintons over Arkancides. So it may not happen.

The MSM would be totally behind Warren and would (still) run all the debates.

Plus, Warren would get exclusive use of Obama’s Civitas database that among other things has personal data on tens of millions of people used for GOTV and meta analysis.

Yeah that’s formidable.

I would love to see that. But for as much dirt that she has on Øbama - I don’t doubt for one minute that he has more dirt on her.

Hillary stumbles, and he is going to be al over it.
