Hyper-Left Elizabeth Warren: Democrats' Fresh Face?

(sigh) Yet another wealthy leftwing nutcake lecturing the masses.

[Dilbert San Diego]

Hillary’s support is a mile wide and an inch deep. While Hillary has broad support and will be a formidable candidate if she runs, clearly lots of Democrats are looking for an alternative to Hillary. Stay tuned.

I’ve heard that the Clintons just aren’t liberal enough for today’s Democrat party.

[YankeeReb]

She's from the Moonbat wing of the Moonbat party.
Fauxcahontus makes Hillary seem like a limited government Conservative.

Pray that she doesn't get anywhere near the WH.

If Warren gets elected, it is time to seriously consider a National Divorce.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I am not surprised at all. The millenials love Liz and Bernie Sanders.

I personally do not think Hillary will even run. IMO the revival of this Jeffrey Epstein scandal is probably being driven by the Democrat party who would love to dump Hill and run Liz.

[RayChuang88]

I think people are looking at Warren because the Left all knows the potential downsides of Hillary Clinton. Hillary should have been nominated and become President back in 2008; instead, she now faces not only the Benghazi scandal (and the specter of digging up a lot of the old Whitewater scandal), but the very fact she’ll be 69 just one month before Election Day 2016.

[Maceman]

I think Warren's biggest electoral vulnerability is her own damning words, in which she publicly claims to have created the looney, juvenile, business destroying, socially disruptive, disease-laded, out of control, intellectually bankrupt, philosophically incoherent, America-hating, unsanitary, disgusting, left-wing extremist temper-tantrum movement Occupy Wall Street:

“I created much of the intellectual foundation for what they do,” she says. “I support what they do.”

Conservatives need to endlessly tie her to Occupy Wall Street, recapping the horrific images of its appalling behavior:

If she is the Democrat nominee she will be the President. Jeb Bush won’t beat her or any other Democrat. He won’t even try.

[FiddlePig]

Her and Democrats opposition to auditing the Fed show they are all owned by mostly Democrat Wall Street fat cats and the BIG money 1%. As Soviet defector Tomas Shumann observed in 1986, “Socialists HATE Capitalism, but LOVE capital, they want it all!”

[arthurus]

The Democrats have their big chance now to get a real Communist. Whoever they put up will beat Jeb Bush and barring a heart attack or a UFO taking him away Jeb Bush will be the Republican Candidate. The next president will rule entirely by Edict and Decree with no reference to Congress if Congress still has Republican majorities. We are Venezuela.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I see Jeb Bush as a one debate pony. Look for Cruz, Perry, Paul and Walker and maybe Huck to blow him off the podium in the first debate. Jeb is just too vulnerable. Plus I don’t see a path to the nomination without the conservative base and its just not there. I won’t vote for the guy and I have never said that in my life. He’s my line in the sand and also for millions of other republicans.

[Jim Noble]

What's the appeal of Warren?

1) She's not Hillary - who is easily the worst candidate since McGovern, and perhaps before (I mean in terms of mechanics, not policy).
2) She's on to something with the Money Center banks.

[Lakeshark]

If she is the Democrat nominee she will be the President.

Well, I doubt she will be their nominee, but if she is:

1. She really looks old and ugly, not telegenic in the slightest.
2. Her voice sounds like finger nails on a chalk board.
3. When her voice is raised in fervor she sounds like the wicked witch of the West.
4. Her lack of achievement as SOS is appalling: ISIS, Benghazi, it all fell apart in the middle east, our enemies are emboldened, our allies hate us.
5. Her baggage from her entire life would fill several Air Force Ones.
6. Her husband's under age horn dog ways are going to be a huge problem.

I seriously doubt this woman can win. They will ditch her for the first fresh face they can find.

Name one of these things that are not an issue with Obama/Clinton. And they have succeeded.

[Hawthorn]

>> What’s the appeal of Warren? <<

Well, she’s obviously a “minority” because she claims to be 1/32th Cherokee.

Therefore, if the Dhimmis nominate her, they’ll have a threefer:

1. She’s a woman.

2. She’s from a racial minority.

3. She skillfully articulates a hard-left brand of populist economic policy.

In other words, What’s not to like?

[Lakeshark]

Actually, both the bamster and B Clinton had some baggage. Clinton actively fought it as he was skilled politically, the bamster has never had to fight it because the MSM totally covered for him. As to the rest of the list, it didn't apply to either of those two, but it does to Hillary.

She's a far worse candidate thane either of those two, and she doesn't have the ability to lie particularly well because of the rest of the list. She's just not believable, nor is she likable but to the worst of feminists.

[arthurus]

The Demorats only have to worry about Bush not being the republican nominee and I think his selection is a slam dunk. They know that they win the election with himn as the Republican. He will only get liberal Republican votes and a few independents. Any Democrat will get all the rest. Conservatives simply won't vote there being nothing at all to vote for, except a few who will vote third party. Just before the election there will be a desperate promotion from all the Conservative pundits and radio hosts for Bush because the alternative is unthinkable but conservatives understand that Bush is every bit as unthinkable as Warren or any other Democrat. As for who is less worse for the nation, that is no longer ever relevant. That was decided when the Republicans put up Romney last time. There is insufficient constituency in the country for any candidate who is not a Socialist or a Fascist. A genuine Conservative candidate who could communicate well would win the election in a walk but a conservative cannot get the nomination. It would take a resurrection of Ronaldus Magnus to beat the Imperial Party's Republican Division.

E. Warren is about as far left as you can get. We have nothing to dislike about this President and his trashing of the Constitution if we take on Ms. Warren. Hillary is awful. WARREN is a disaster. They all suck because we MUST protect what we have, or we lose it.

Jeb is no shoe in. My list I just posted: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3259161/posts?page=44#44
