This means Warren: Obama backs challenger to Hillary

By Edward Klein

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 Democrat 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.

“Pinched-faced scold in a schoolmarm’s dress”

Perfect description. She resembles Dana Carvey’s church lady (except the church lady is cuter.)

I fear she has a chance for the inane “historic” aspect.

They have won by running a celebrity - that is, not someone with any verifiable experience at anything, just somebody who is sufficiently left wing and upon whom the press can build a content-free narrative. Hillary isn’t very popular and I don’t think she really has much chance anyway, and Warren could never become Obama’s mini-me because she simply doesn’t have celebrity potential.

I think they’re going to run Michelle, and the press is already positioning her. Three times this week I have read “Michelle takes on GOP” or headlines to that effect. What’s the president’s wife doing “taking on” legitimate American political party that happens to be her husband’s opposition? Preparing herself to be the Dem candidate - and the press has already made her a celebrity.

The faction, including Obama, that derailed Ms Inevitable’s last trek to her coronation are working toward a repeat.

Many in the MSM are again claiming Hillary is Ms Inevitable, but her recent gaffes and health and questions about her involvement in some hot issues may be enough to keep her from running.

If she doesn’t run, she can go on speaking tours and deposit her money to the Clinton Foundation.

I think that the Democrats will run a female in 2016, but it won’t be Hillary or Paleface Lizzy Warren or Michelle Obama.

I anxiously await the day when either odumbo or hitlary throw the other under the bus over Benghazi. We all know they both have a stake in that horrible outcome and despite what hitlary said, IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE as it should!

A possibility.

I’m sticking with Klein on this. The people surrounding Obama are not going to want to see Their Organization taken over by Bill and Hillary. Obama’s Donar List is not going to fall into Clinton hands.

I have been saying on FR for a couple+ years that Elizabeth Warren is the CHOSEN ONE, because she is the most radical of the lot. Hillary Clinton, Dem nominee, just a pipe dream. The same folk’s that are behind the Obama scenes election are pulling the strings for Warren. Take it to the bank, Elizabeth Warren will be the next POTUS,

It has to be somebody already in politics. It’s too late to bring in a newcomer. It will have to be someone people would almost automatically feel sorry for. The American media doesn’t give a crap about Disabled Veterans, yet they run stories about how bad the VA treats Disabled Veterans. Look for a female Disabled Veteran who is already in politics.

I have been following the Clinton;s for over 30 years, It is Bill Clinton who is the revengeful one. The Mrs. is just power hungry.
