Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts has no intention of being "Hillary'd" in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary.
That was the phrase, used as shorthand by a student asking about sexist attacks during a CNN town hall Monday night, that prompted Warren to recall her successful 2012 campaign to unseat Republican Sen. Scott Brown.
It was a campaign, Warren said, that almost never happened. Democrats were telling her she ought to run, that she'd make a great senator. But there was a catch: Most of them were confident Warren would lose, and didn't mind telling her.
"People said to me, you're going to lose because Massachusetts in 2011, according to conventional wisdom, was not ready to have a woman senator or governor. We never had and people said it's just not going to happen, not at least for another generation," she said.
"I heard that," Warren remembered on Monday, "as 'Get in this race, right now.' Which is what I did."
Warren said the early coverage of her campaign was "about what I'm wearing, it's about my hair, it's about my voice, it's about whether or not I smile enough -- I didn't."
Warren said she resolved to make "something count, every single day," and said whenever she saw a little girl on the campaign trail she would go up to her, kneel down, and say, "Hi, my name is Elizabeth, and I'm running for Senate because that's what girls do."
"And then we would pinky swear to remember," Warren continued. "And so every night when I went home, no matter what the day had been like, I would count up how many pinky swears we'd done during the day."

And yes, you will, babe.
I think she meant murdered and made to look like a suicide.
Because Hillary was an actual nominee
She need not worry, she is not going to be the candidate.
:: And then we would pinky swear to remember ::
She was Pinky to Hillary’s “The Brain”.
She’s delusional, too much firewater.
Yeah. She’ll be “Primarie’d’ long before that.
Sniffing too many beer caps?
If she WERE an Indian, her tribe would have sent her away permanently just for the incessant whining.
My prediction.....PAIN.”

She should not be allowed to become a verb. She did it to herself.
Nobody, ABSOLUTELY NOBODY, thinks that bumbling idiot will get that far, even in the socialist dem party!
I thought it was called Arkancide?
She doesn’t understand or will not admit that she is and has lost NOT because she is female, who cares, but because her career, life, and credibility is based on a lie. She used a lie to advance herself just as anchor baby Harris used sex to sleep her way to the top. These are the issues, not gender.
She is an idiot, and is deeply insecure, and not a friend of truth. All of which is apparent.
she left one out...shes too gd ugly.....
Warren is too much of a nut case for even most voting democrats and that’s really saying something.
I think she’s right. Hillary won the nomination. Fauxcahontas will not.
The squaw in that video is delusional about running for Sinate.
Scott Brown only won here because of three reasons: 1, 0bamacare was big, and drove BIG money, and 2, he was running against a complete idiot - at least Warren knows a bit more how to campaign, and last, it was a special low-turnout election.
In any high-turnout November election, the ‘Rat glass of water wins here in MA.
Yup. Lizzie isn’t winning it.
