Regardless of Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi's titles—and to the comical dismay of corporate, establishment Democrats—Bernie Sanders has become the defacto leader of the Democratic Party.
Sunday in Warren, Michigan put an exclamation point on the sentence, as Sanders, alongside Schumer, brought out 8,000 people on a bitterly cold winter day to fight against Obamacare repeal.
Even the establishment media is waking up—granted a year too late.
"That's the future of the Democratic Party," Joe Scarborough, echoing Mika Brzezinski's sentiment, said on Morning Joe Monday. "He sounds just as relevant today as he did a year ago."
So, as the mainstream media opportunistically tries to Feel The Bern after ignoring Sanders when it mattered (both CNN and MSNBC recently held primetime town halls with him), you know who's become less relevant?
Senator Elizabeth Warren. . .
SNIP
But if Sanders decides against running in four years, Warren—in a political climate with a jarring scarcity of true progressive leaders—could have a chance to climb back up the progressive ranks and possibly serve as the movement's best chance to finally take the White House. . .

Yes, indeed, Draining the DC Swamp is long overdue. And it's not just the politicians, but the faceless bureaucrats who are hunkered down.
No truer statement has ever been made. And it cuts both ways: the people who are colored as victims are to be put on the government teet, and the white-colored are to be demonized.
This party philosophy in the age of Trump will lead to the Dem's doom as a long term political force -- until they transform themselves and promote America-enriching policies.
Anyone that dares threaten their privileged status feels the sting of their hate-filled wrath.
Yet, I am supremely confident Trump is up to the task.
Let them commit Seppuku.
Trump showed progressives that they were self-deceived, that they weren’t in sole possession of the right and the good......and that’s a deep psychic wound.

“Sessions should seriously investigate what he’s been up to.”
Yep. Pull his ass over and shine the light of scrutiny on it, inside and outside.
>> Why Elizabeth Warren is no longer the darling of the left
Because she is no longer an Indian?
What’s a “moped”?
I’m assuming it’s a metaphor and you don’t mean the bicycle with a motor.
I don’t see it. She is even less appealing than Hitlery, albeit without quite as much baggage. She is probably up to her neck in Clinton Foundation corruption, but that is still less than Hitlery’s treasonous baggage.
Nothing the democrats do would surprise me, though.
It will be interesting if a fight breaks out between the Bernie side, and the Ellison/Obama/BLM side, for ultimate control of the party.
No, but I read about it.
A person of the opposite sex who is not attractive, but you would have sex with.
She's a moped: She'd be fun to ride, but I wouldn't want any of my friends seeing me on her.
I don’t think Ancient White Man Bernie Sanders understands that he is no longer welcome to lead the Rat Party. He may think he’s the leader, but unhinged racist blacks like Keith X and Jemu Greene (running for the DNC chairmanship) are going to smack him down,tell him and his “white privilege” to drop dead.
As a result of 8 years of Obama, there’s no question: less than 12 percent of the U.S. population (blacks) think they can bully and control the other 88 percent (non-blacks) with constant race-baiting.
They would...if they could. They are mercifully restrained by GOD! He restrains evil, much more than we can see or know. I have a hunch we might be shown the extent of this hidden kindness on Judgment Day.
It will be the cause of even more joy for believers in Christ (and more terror for those who rejected Him).
Warren will be too old to run
Well stated, Liz.
Unhappy because many just realized that they have tanked the US job market so badly they will have trouble finding a job.
LOL. Thanks!
You said it. Like nails on a chalk board, the persona of harpy and bobble head Warren goes a very long way, quickly.
