Are you ready for Presidential Candidate Elizabeth Warren?
Legal Insurrection ^ | 9/8/2013 | William A. Jacobson

You better at least get ready.

There’s a buzz being fed. Warren gave a speech to the AFL-CIO today, and the “draft Warren” talk is starting.

Elizabeth Warren is totally wowing @AFLCIO convention, Wonder if she'll enter the race if Hillary, for some reason, doesn't run. #AFLCIO13

@greenhousenyt Outstanding speech. I would not be surprised at all if Draft Warren groups sprung up in Iowa, New Hampshire.

@greenhousenyt @AFLCIO DEAR GOD YES, PLEASE, YES, OMG, THAT'S WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN #DRAFTSENWARREN (sorry for the caps!)

There is no bigger and better demagogue in American politics. No one is as keyed into the politics of victimhood as she is.

The former law professor also will demagogue and run against the Supreme Court:

Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren and AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka denounced the United States Supreme Court on Sunday as a right-wing panel that serves the interests of corporate America, previewing a theme that is likely to rise in prominence with the approach of the 2016 election.

On the opening day of the AFL-CIO’s convention, Warren – the highest-profile national Democrat to address the gathering here – warned attendees of a “corporate capture of the federal courts.” …

Warren’s reception in Los Angeles also underscored her core appeal to the progressive base of the Democratic Party. Her entrance into the convention hall was greeted was effusive applause; Trumka hailed her as “an honest-to-God champion, the real deal” and a senator who stands up to “billion-dollar corporations and Wall Street on behalf of working people.”

And indeed, the former Harvard Law professor’s speech was a populist paean to the role of labor in fighting “powerful interests [that] have tried to capture Washington and rig the system in their favor.”

I’m beginning to think Warren will run even if Hillary also runs.

We’ll be there. Reminding people of what she has worked so hard to have people forget.

@greenhousenyt @instapundit @AFLCIO Of course @SenWarren will .enter race if Hillary doesn't –> your study guide http://t.co/3j2q1JeDXk

She is a female Obama — a cheerleading community activist. And a cheat as an academic.

I wouldn’t be surprised. The lefties I know are all ga ga over her. Personally, I think she’s bat-spit crazy.

In saner times, I’d say she’d never have a chance to get elected with her radical politics. But, given that very far left John Kerry came within a whisper of winning in 2004, and very, very far left Obama has been elected twice, she could well be a contender in 2016.

Heck, I think even Mike Dukakis could get elected President these days.

I still cannot believe that her outright lie about being Native American AND using it to gain minority preference in her job has been ignored. What she did is criminal, but the media also ignored Obama using Indonesian citizenship to get into college as a foreign student making him ineligible to be POTUS.

If a fake American can get elected, why not a fake Indian?

And if you think Zero has a high opinion of himself, wait until you meet the faux indian. Her ego is three times Obama's. She's an absolutely insufferable Boston Globe moonbat.
