A suggestion to those who want Elizabeth Warren to run.

Get behind O'Malley right now. There's only so much money available and Hillary Clinton has a ton of it already sewn up.

The people who want anybody but Hillary need to get behind one person ASAP if there is going to be a shot:

No. O'Malley's heart may be in the right place, but he has far less nat'l presence than EW. Scuba Feb 2015 #1
He's running. Elizabeth Warren ain't. MohRokTah Feb 2015 #3

I jumped on the Obama 2008 bandwagon in 2004 when he gave his speech at the Democratic National Convention.

I decided I was behind Hillary Clinton in 2016 the day after Barack Obama won in 2008.

O'Malley has made his move.

If they want somebody other than Hillary Clinton, they need to get behind a serious candidate. The only potentially serious candidate other than Hillary Clinton right now is O'Malley.

I'd like to see a primary race. It can only help Hillary Clinton to win, but if there are no serious contenders, well, there isn't really a primary race.
