Elizabeth Warren: People Think I'm Capitalism's Savior Michael Warren July 30, 2012 1:32 PM

Massachusetts Democrat Elizabeth Warren says Wall Street types tell her she could be the "savior of capitalism" if she wins her race for U.S. Senate. Here's what Warren recently told a reporter, National Journal reports:

“Every now and again, I meet with someone who’s been very successful on Wall Street, who says, ‘I want to support your campaign because I believe you will save capitalism. I believe in capitalism, and I understand there have to be rules. And they have to be consistently enforced.’ That’s what I think is at stake in this election.”

That’s a hefty assignment, the salvation of capitalism, but Democratic strategists, while cringing at the grandiosity of the statement, say she articulates her vision for the assignment as well as any candidate.

Warren, who is running against Republican incumbent Scott Brown, has said she "created much of the intellectual foundation" for the anti-capitalist Occupy Wall Street movement. And a video of Warren telling supporters that "nobody in this country...got rich on their own" went viral with liberals last year and may have inspired President Obama's comments earlier this month that business owners "didn't build" their businesses.

Has it ever happened that you think you can rationally debate or understand someone, only to realize they are mentally ill and operating on a different planet entirely?

[556x45]

chuckle...what are her polling numbers? Its hard to imagine they’re much above 3 or 4%. Then again it is MA we’re talking about. LOL, savior of capitalism huh? Guess she’s counting on the magnitude of the lie to make it sound credible. I looked twice to make sure this wasn’t a spoof...

[Joe Miner]

Anyone that disagrees, please be advised you are now filed and soon to be spindled into a DHS database as a likely terrorist and hate criminal against Native Americans.

[Red Badger]

THIS PERSON IS DERANGED.......i.e., she’s the perfect Dem candidate.......................

[lgjhn23]

And once again, we see here just another classic example of how liberalism rots out the human brain. They’re literally lunatics...and dangerous to themselves and others.

I believe in capitalism, and I understand there have to be rules. And they have to be consistently enforced.’ That’s what I think is at stake in this election.”

And then; to show their appreciation for my service, they take me to their mothership, insert an anal probe, and obtain samples of my DNA to preserve in stasis.

[Red Badger]

People say I look like Brad Pitt.........................

[Gay State Conservative]

Elizabeth Warren: People Think I'm Capitalism's Savior...

Somehow she's failed to mention that these people are patients in psychiatric hospitals nationwide.

[Red Badger]

Izzit just me, or do Dem candidates seem to be getting more narcissistic these days?...................

[drypowder]

what will become of all the democrat’s Satan serving self proclaimed gods when the US is retaken by US freedom loving patriots?

[massgopguy]

Are there any photos of Granny Warren where she doesn’t loo like the Zombie Army is coming for her?

[FlingWingFlyer]

Maybe she can start a Cherokee Princess Buffalo Wings franchise when the voters give her a thumbs down in November.

[concerned about politics]

Elizabeth Warren: People Think I'm Capitalism's Savior

I think the Indian woman has a major screw loose. Who in the world would ever think she was pro- American? Isn't she one of the Oboma parasites? Give me a break!

[Gay State Conservative]

THIS PERSON IS DERANGED.......i.e., she’s the perfect Dem candidate.......................

Being a lifelong resident of the Gay State I can assure you that,while she may or may not be the perfect Rat candidate,she's more assuredly the perfect Massachusetts candidate.

[SampleMan]

Are these people Indians?

[SandRat]

They are, becuse they are all Red Diaper Doper Babies like O-Bummer.

[KGeorge]

Okay, that was priceless. Delusions of grandeur seem to be a hallmark for commies. Followed by literally epic failures. Such humility. She is everyman. /s

[outpostinmass2]

The Wall Street types that support her are the lawyers who would benefit from more laws and regulation.

[massgopguy]

Are there any photos of Granny Warren where she doesn’t loo like the Zombie Army is coming for her?

[massgopguy]

Granny Warren is a Seat Holder for Joke3. She will serve two years of her term if she wins and then after he has one Congressional term under his belt, she will step down and Deval will appoint him to “the Kennedy seat”. Why do you think no one from the House stepped up and they state Dem party got someone from Oklahoma to run.

Dear EW,

Just because your husbands and children said so, that don’t make it “People Think” you are the capitalism’s savior.

[nascarnation]

WTH is this race even close???

These are the same folks who regularly elect Kennedy, Kerry, and Markey.

[RexBeach]

Fauxcohontas eating too much bad cranberries while worrying about saving wampum for fork tongued white man.

Chief Thunderthud wouldn’t buy this horse hockey.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]
