People who are willing to put their money at risk now think Elizabeth Warren is the favorite to win the Democrats' nomination, according to TMZ, which has cited the data on US-Bookies.com. Biden's polling lead apparently impresses them about as much as it impresses me. As one pundit noted, it's difficult-to-impossible to find voters who are enthusiastic about Biden. Most just settle for him because the rest of the field is so pathetic.
I welcome this news because Warren is a phony who cheated her way into prized Ivy league faculty slots on the basis of affirmative action preferences for "women of color," as the Paleface Pocahontas used to describe herself. Her recent vague "apology" for the unspecified "harm" she did will not suffice with African-American voters.
Here is a truth that our media friends are loath to acknowledge. Black voters hold de facto veto power over a Democrat nominee gaining the presidency. The Democrats' racialism has alienated a sufficient portion of the white voters to make very high black turnout and ultra-high support (90%+) absolutely essential for Democrat presidential victories. A nominee who is incapable of generating that level of enthusiasm not only loses the White House, but dooms the House and Senate candidacies of Democrats in localities where the black vote is the margin of victory.
I don't see an arrogant phony like Warren as able to overcome African-Americans' resentment of her appropriation of racial spoils they regard as their own.
By the way, for very different reasons, Pete Buttigieg hasn't got a chance, either. But his future hopes depend on changing African-American attitudes the way white attitudes have already changed. He has a better prospect on 2028 than Warren has today.

Naw...Warren and Mayor Pete.
Grey Beaver works for me.
Pocahontas was a devoted wife of Captain John Smith???
Gotta look that up.
I have a “quite traditional” Navaho friend in El Paso who calls her”, “Scrawny Coyote”, which is “strong language” for a traditional.
(I won’t bore you with recounting what little that I know about Navaho beliefs/folkways/culture but I know that calling someone a “coyote” is FAR from complimentary.)

Speaking of UN-complimentary names, my dad (who was at least a HALF-breed & whom I never heard use a 4-letter word”,) called a fellow that he worked with & who was “evidently lacking in the use of soap & water”: “BIG BARN SMELL”.
(When he said that, when I was a shirttail kid, I invariably was “amused”.)

Missing some “cards” out of the ‘rat deck. Hillaryous with feathers won’t cut it.
Collectivist in a canoe. Tyrant in a teepee. Prototypical NE libtard. Will the squad get in line behind the sqaw? Over Niagara Falls goes Lizzy.
RE: Whomever it is will most likely be:
A. White
B. Male
C. Veteran of either Iraq or Afghanistan
______________________________
If you add D. Gay, then we all know who it is.
She has the endorsement of Dem Rep Deb Haaland, a Laguna Pueblo Indian, who was elected along with the rest of the far-left radicals here in New Mexico last November.
It is early yet, however, if she is the democratic candidate, this is beatiful. Trump will beat her so badly.
The key will be for Trump to not let her get away with sounding like a Centrist.
“The link you provided shows Fauxcahontas as the favorite to win the nomination.”
it does indeed ... but the reason i posted it was to show that the TREND for warren hasn’t changed very much in the last few weeks, refuting the generalization in the article that odds had “surged” in her favor ...
OTOH, predicit.org had 3-1 and 4-1 odds that hillary would win, and i cleaned up betting the max on several similar markets because i though the odds were wildly skewed and that Trump was going to win ... so all betting odds have to be taken with many grains of salt ... people like to bet on THEIR candidate or THEIR team, regardless of external reality ...
We also have direct lines to the Pamunkey/Powhatan tribes. I’m not overly bothered by the “Pocahontas” label, but I think “Fauxcahontas” is much better. And yes, the real Pocahontas was a lovely person, by all accounts.
My bets (at this time) as either a Warren/Kamala Harris ticket, or a Warren/Mayor Pete B. ticket. I don’t think the rabid left will accept a white male (unless gay). They want their first woman Pres.,dang-nabbit! If Hillary (or Michelle) are unable or unwilling to waltz in at the last minute and save the day, then they’ll have to go with Liz.
AGREED 100%. = I’m predicting that after the second Wednesday in NOV 2020 that the DIMs will be essentially dead, as I don’t believe that ANY DIMocRAT candidate can defeat Trump, including Michelle or HRC.
What SCARES me is OPRAH coming in at the last minute.
Yours, TMN78247.
"Thanks! After the week I've had, I needed a good laugh. Ah, here's my limo! Hey look -- I can see Pokahonkey, in the rear view mirror, chasing after the car!"
Not happening.
