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 whos 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. Thats what I think is at stake in this election.
Thats 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.
Red Badger - “People say I look like Brad Pitt.............”

She’s actually more delusional than we thought.
LEGEND_IN_HER_OWN_MIND_PING!
Dear EW,
Just because your husbands and children said so, that don’t make it “People Think” you are the capitalism’s savior.
These are the same folks who regularly elect Kennedy, Kerry, and Markey.
Huh?
Fauxcohontas eating too much bad cranberries while worrying about saving wampum for fork tongued white man.
Chief Thunderthud wouldn’t buy this horse hockey.
The classic “claim the ground of your enemy” tactic. Shall we take her comments in, or out of context?
Fake squaw who speak with forked tongue, now claims she is savior of wampum makers
I truly do believe, this woman is insane. There’s no other explanation for such blatant stupidity.

Actually, I look a lot like Dave Ramsey........without the goatee......and the money........
She has to destroy the village in order to save it.
Another poll on the Massachusetts Senate race, released this afternoon, puts Senator Scott brown and Democratic challenger Elizabeth Warren in a dead heat, with Warren holding a 40-38 lead.
But Warren continues to far outpace Brown in the race to raise cash. Warren raised $8.6 million in the last quarter, for a total of more than $15 million in the first half of this year, compared to $8.4 million for Brown. The Harvard law professor has raised more than $24 million since launching her campaign last year, easily the most of any Senate or House candidate in the nation.
delusional in so many ways....
“People say I look like Brad Pitt.........................
LOL. THAT’S the comeback.
I’m way down here in Texas. I don’t know who Joke3 is (I’m guessing one of the Kennedys? Joe, jr?) Is she from Oklahoma? (I try to ignore her. I guess I probably shouldn’t)
All I know about this silly (w)itch is that, back when the Dodd Frank stuff was being hammered out (or is that hammered *on*?), the left was howling about what a financial genius she is. This was before (I think. Maybe I was just clueless back then) she came out (of the closet, as a commie) with her whole collectivist spiel that 0 is parroting now. I do know the whole “you didn’t build that” was hers, verbatim. Good grief. Massachusetts won’t really elect her, do you think?
Of course they do, sweetie. Now take your medicine before you have another episode and we have to put you in the padded cell.
