I'm not sure how many of you guys remember this:

In Secret Letter, Senate Democratic Women Rally Behind Hillary Clinton

All of the female Democratic senators signed a secret letter to Hillary Rodham Clinton early this year encouraging her to run for president in 2016 – a letter that includes the signature of Sen. Elizabeth Warren and other senators who are mentioned as potential candidates, two high-ranking Democratic Senate aides told ABC News.

Well....it's no longer a rumor. Elizabeth Warren had admitted to signing the letter:

"All all of the women — Democratic women I should say — of the Senate urged Hillary Clinton to run, and I hope she does. Hillary is terrific," Warren said during an interview broadcast Sunday on ABC's "This Week," noting that she was one of several senators to sign a letter urging Clinton to run in 2016.

1. So much mocking and derision when that was first revealed ... and now, the truth is out!

I'll bet some folks are terribly angry at this turn of events.

Not only did EW sign the letter...but HRC is TERRIFIC!

Oh, the huge manatee!

8. This is a safe haven group for supporters of Elizabeth Warren. Please be civil to others.

9. I'm a strong supporter of Elizabeth Warren-I delivered over a hundred voters to the polls for her.

Just because a person is a "group host" doesn't give them the right to name call or mock people as being "obsessive." That kind of thing could be construed as rude and hurtful and disruptive--but far better to simply point it out than hit the alert button.

Civility is a two-way street. Take that lesson aboard, yourself.

Or don't, I really don't care either way.

10. If you want to discuss Elizabeth Warren, do so. If you want to argue with and attack other members

do it elsewhere. Not in here.

[MADem]

11. I'm not "attacking" anyone.

In fact, I regard YOUR false characterizations as an "attack."

So there you have it.

[Autumn]

12. As I said, discuss Elizabeth Warren if you wish.

You want to argue with someone about their posts, do it elsewhere.
