Elizabeth Warren gets rock-star reception at liberal donors confab

Elizabeth Warren insists she has no interest in running for president in 2016, but the rich liberals to whom she spoke Thursday afternoon seemed unwilling to take ‘no’ for an answer.

The Massachusetts senator got a rock stars’ welcome during a closed-door speech to major donors, one of whom interrupted her by yelling “Run, Liz, Run!”

Not a chance.

Hillary-Fauxahontas-Huma-Bill. Somebody is gonna get killed.

I, for one, fully support an Elizabeth Warren for the Democratic nomination. Chief Warren vs. Hillary? Fantastic drama that would be.

Elizabeth Warren goes to the Doctor, worried about her husband’s temper.
The Doctor asks: “What’s the problem?”
Elizabeth Warren says: “Doctor, I don’t know what to do. Every day my husband seems to lose his temper for no reason. It scares me.”
The Doctor says: “I have a cure for that. When it seems that your husband is getting angry, just take a glass of water and start swishing it in your mouth. Just swish and swish but don’t swallow it until he either leaves the room or calms down.”
Two weeks later Elizabeth Warren comes back to the doctor looking fresh and reborn. She says: “Doctor that was a brilliant idea! Every time my husband started losing it, I swished with water. I swished and swished, and he calmed right down! How does a glass of water do that?”
The Doctor says: “The water itself does nothing. It’s keeping your mouth shut that does the trick”

EW is dumber and falser than Obama, she could indeed save the Dem Party.

Hey Granny Clampett, word for the wise, read up on Arkcancide.

In addition to Warren, Vice President Joe Biden, who is considering challenging Clinton in the 2016 presidential primary, is set to appear Friday night at a Democracy Alliance gala at the Newseum with donors.

This side show freak will still get 45% of the vote.

Oh my not in the least

By way of observation rather than prediction, this season is beginning to look like 1968. Obama is falling from grace in the style of Lyndon Johnson. Hillary appears as ineffectual as Hubert Humphrey, partly handcuffed by his obeisance to his president. Eugene McCarthy is wearing skirts and looks like Elizabeth Warren.

Hubert Humphrey's campaign only caught fire when he jettisoned Johnson and the Vietnam War but still came up way short, especially when the third-party candidacy of George Wallace is factored in. In that 1968 year, the year of the assassinations of Robert F Kennedy and Martin Luther King with ensuing riots, the Kent State shootings, the Tet Offensive in Vietnam, school segregation protests, the campaign of George Wallace, and the riots surrounding the Democrat convention, was an annus horribilis for America, a watershed in many respects. It marked a real turning point away from the high water mark of The Great Society and a real nadir in big government overreach and incompetence. The result was not just a political shift in America away from the Franklin Roosevelt/ Lyndon Johnson new deal coalition but a realignment toward the Republican Party and a change in the color of the American electoral map.

The media acted as assault troops for their henchmen in the Democrat party and their think tanks in academia and succeeded ultimately unhorsing Richard Nixon. But the color of the electoral map changed in other ways as well. Race became a dominant feature of American political life surpassing even the turmoil over the Vietnam War. Race realigned America politically and shapes our fate even today in more places than just Ferguson, Missouri.

This is the second of two pieces which appear on these threads by Politico about potential candidates from 2016. The first undertakes to take down Ted Cruz and this article undertakes to build up Elizabeth Warren. The counterpoint obviously does not appear accidentally in this left-wing publication. Politico, of course, is falling prey to the quadrennial left-wing virus of whoring after a new Messiah. They did that in 1968, first with McCarthy and then with Bobby Kennedy.

In recent days we have read pundits telling us why Hillary Clinton is a weak candidate, and so she is. Elizabeth Warren is painted as a populist when in fact she is academic Marxist in Indian headdress but she will no doubt appeal to female voters and other whites who buy into conspiracy theories concerning ready-made enemies like big business. She is a through and through redistributionist and big government statist who will push us closer to tyranny but who will be presented with a benign public image.

We must not forget that 1968 might have marked an improvement in Republican electoral politics but it by no means put a stop to The Great Society. Richard Nixon was no Ronald Reagan and his administration was in so many respects a capitulation to The Great Society. The left hated Richard Nixon because of his biography as much as for his politics. It appears that Politico loves Elizabeth Warren because she is Hillary without the baggage. It appears that Politico must hate Ted Cruz for his politics rather than his biography-or is it for his talents and stubborn conservatism?

Kent State was in 1970, not 1968.

Hail the new messiah!

Liberalism is a strange religion.

[Erik Latranyi]

I hope I am not the only one who see's that Warrenwatha will be easier to beat then her Thighness.

If we can run someone, like Walker, against Warren, that would be a rout of the DNC. The people want leadership that is open, responsible and clear. The people want experience, not fluff.

MY PEOPLE WILL HAVE THEIR REVENGE...

… and it all seems like yesterday.

Maybe I am getting old, after all.

[Georgia Girl 2]

I have a $5 and pitcher of Margaritas bet with my best friend that Hillary does not even run. I think the party is going to dump her for Fauxcahontas or Bernie Sanders.

[Buckeye McFrog]

IMO, your next POTUS.

The majority of the public is primed and ready for red meat Economic Populism. Not unlike Germany in 1932...

I would love to get a group of people to go to one of her rallies to do the Florida State Seminole chop.

“I think the party is going to dump her for Fauxcahontas or Bernie Sanders.”

I agree with you. The rat party is run by fanatical ideologues who write fairy tales and believe that their fictions are facts. Thus it will be the fake Indian and the bed-wetting socialist on the 2016 fantasy rat presidential ticket.

In the addled liberal brain, it’s time to hand the ship of state to an Indian. We may even see fascist-style parades, complete with fry bread, tomahawks and torches, circle-dancing and two-stepping down New York’s Fifth Avenue.
