MoveOn.org to Launch ‘Draft Warren’ Campaign

The progressive advocacy group MoveOn.org is preparing to launch a campaign to draft Sen. Elizabeth Warren into the 2016 presidential race.

MoveOn is conducting a one-day poll of its eight million members that, if they approve, would mark the beginning of a $1 million initial grassroots investment to convince the freshman Massachusetts Democrat to throw her hat into the presidential ring.

“There is too much at stake to have anything other than our best candidates in the debate. We are prepared to show Senator Warren she has the support she needs to enter—and win—the presidential race,” said Ilya Sheyman, executive director of MoveOn.org Political Action, in a release.

MoveOn members will have 24 hours to decide whether the organization should launch a “Run Warren Run” effort. Results are set to be announced Wednesday morning.

Yup, folks the libs are THAT desperate.

If the Repubs cannot defeat this incompetent lying low IQ Massachusets lib, they really do not deserve to survive as a party.

However, they’re not called the Stupid Party for nothing.

I agree. Draft her, send her to basic and then to Yemen.
