May 2014

only ridiculous, but it's self-defeating, and does nothing to advance the goal of "Electing More Democrats".

Ready for the fracas VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #1
Scootch over a little... lamp_shade May 2014 #3
Of course, Elizabeth Warren supports the ACA. She supports the middle class and JDPriestly May 2014 #20
We all like her! Everyone here likes her..... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #22
We are working to change that. I hope she does run. I'd support Bernie Sanders JDPriestly May 2014 #27
she doesn't want to....why do you think she is a liar? VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #29
Read her book. JDPriestly May 2014 #31
I have the audio version AND I have seen the video where she said VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #34
Obama said that he wasn't running and look what happened Vattel May 2014 #97
He didn't REPEATEDLY and vehemently say so as she does in that video! VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #102
lol, I hope she is more homest than that Vattel May 2014 #103
then maybe you need to rethink this position you have...... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #105
um, what position is that? Vattel May 2014 #106
that EW doesn't know her own mind....cannot make it up and or is as honest as Barack Obama! VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #107
Would it be bad if she changed her mind and decided to run? Vattel May 2014 #110
Why would she? She has spoken at length... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #112
Why would she change her mind? Idk. Maybe because enough people urge her to run Vattel May 2014 #117
Why would that change the mind of a woman who knows what SHE wants is.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #128
lol I am glad you are so sensitive to her wants and needs Vattel May 2014 #133
Yes I am....that is called having the ability to empathize.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #152
Who said anything about a hero? HangOnKids May 2014 #168
No semantic twisting required..... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #184
You're special HangOnKids May 2014 #185
oy.... DonViejo May 2014 #2
She's a good, loyal Democrat. Kingofalldems May 2014 #4

She's so smart. bravenak May 2014 #5
Not to mention that she frazzled May 2014 #6
Has anyone ever seen Warren and Obama in the same place at the same time? MannyGoldstein May 2014 #7
Oh , sarcasm...got it randys1 May 2014 #9
Bernie Sanders has praised it Enrique May 2014 #10
...and then he voted for it.... Cali_Democrat May 2014 #12
yes, several years ago Enrique May 2014 #17
except for those on DU who seem to think she is Left of Bernie Sanders.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #24
Shhhhh iamthebandfanman May 2014 #67
Yep. bvar22 May 2014 #66
Bernie Sanders: ProSense May 2014 #14
Whatever.. it's working and it's what was passable at that time. And, a Good Solid Foundation Cha May 2014 #18
Yes. And, of course, Elizabeth Warren likes it. If the Elizabeth Warren haters JDPriestly May 2014 #25
there are no Elizabeth Warren haters on DU... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #30
"bit of trouble doing the math" joshcryer May 2014 #38
Bush couldn't do the math either. Doing math has nothing to do with JDPriestly May 2014 #50
I didn't think you intended that. joshcryer May 2014 #57
He also said we MUST defend it.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #23
Good, maybe she can talk some sense into Michelle Nunn on this one. bullwinkle428 May 2014 #11
Don't worry iandhr May 2014 #13
Thanks. n/t ProSense May 2014 #15

Oh, Elizabeth, now you've done it! You're a "Third Way" "Corporatist" "Sellout" to the Ins. Co's. Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #26
EXACTLY.....you nailed it! VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #33
Have you noticed how much energy is spent trying to pit EW against BHO on this site? It's not.... Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #36
Yes I have noticed.....very much so....still can't believe their are "Democrats" on this site VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #39
Well, one would have to actually "believe" they're "Democrats". Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #43
true....that is why I used the proverbial "air quotes" after I typed it.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #46
Agreed! nt Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #51
Both parties (Dems and Repukes) are the same = Libertarian talking point. That's the logic they use. freshwest May 2014 #139
They've been trying to change the mission of this board for quite some time. Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #143
Agree on both. Gotta run. Take care over there. freshwest May 2014 #145
But but but.... sheshe2 May 2014 #68
And if anybody still believes that, Chris Christie's got a "bridge" to sell 'em. Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #69
Yeah, I get the feeling there were a couple of Ron Paul/Cynthia McKinney write ins from that crowd Number23 May 2014 #144
I'll take "both" for $250, Alex. When the man can't do anything to satisfy them, Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #147
Yeah because EW is going to fight for us unlike POTUS! treestar May 2014 #76
You assume too much when you state ... 1StrongBlackMan May 2014 #82
Not my assumption. It's the stated mission of this site. I, on the other hand, know.... Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #125
Ratfucking 101. nt msanthrope May 2014 #159
Actually, she is no more liberal than third way Udall. joshcryer May 2014 #48
Well, we know that. But it can't have escaped you how much energy is expended here telling us.... Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #53
Tarheel Dem, you beat me to the bus! Dang, it's getting crowded under here: freshwest May 2014 #111
Sorry about that, but I love that damn graphic!!! Tarheel_Dem May 2014 #126
No sorry needed! I love it so much that I'm uh, 'appropriating' it for later use! freshwest May 2014 #135
This all a distraction to avoid talking about Benghazi n/t Submariner May 2014 #28
....... Louisiana1976 May 2014 #44
Yes because lord knows Benghazi is the pressing issue of the day randys1 May 2014 #55
Benghazi? Isn't that a back cream for National Socialists? FrodosPet May 2014 #63
DUzy! riqster May 2014 #201

people who come to forums G_j May 2014 #35
One note Capt. Obvious May 2014 #37
A Democratic politician supporting the ACA. Shocking think May 2014 #41
Om.... Obamacare raindaddy May 2014 #42
and I am sure a President Warren could single-handedly fix all of those virtually overnight! VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #47
Well of course she can. sheshe2 May 2014 #70
and if she doesn't use that magic wand effectively enough Whisp May 2014 #80
You got that right Whisp~ sheshe2 May 2014 #81
It'll be bad, bad! See my reply above: freshwest May 2014 #137
If all it takes is a magic wand to act like a Democrat maybe someone should've bought one for Obama. raindaddy May 2014 #141
She will punch Boner in the nose treestar May 2014 #77
I am not sure a President Clinton would find anything wrong with that list, much less try to fix djean111 May 2014 #130
I don't think so.....the closer to the election we get the more support there will be.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #131
Again..... djean111 May 2014 #149
and WTH makes you think that? VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #150
I have my opinion, and you have yours, both opinions are subjective. djean111 May 2014 #153
except my "opinion" is backed with data..... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #156
So, you honestly believe disapproval of, say, the TPP can be erased with high general approval djean111 May 2014 #157
So you honestly think that is the ONLY issue worthy of consideration? VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #158
NSA spying, secret corporate giveaway trade agreements, Wall Street cronyism, internet freedom, djean111 May 2014 #163
And enthusiasm for the Democrat to win will by HUGE even on DU.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #164
Apparently you need a refresher course on Democrats...especially on DU VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #165
and furthermore... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #166
and also.... VanillaRhapsody May 2014 #167
Maybe ... Maybe no ... 1StrongBlackMan May 2014 #88
