Agree JustAnotherGen May 2017 #3
I think because JustAnotherGen May 2017 #2
And why bring this up now? yardwork May 2017 #5
She wants to run for President? JustAnotherGen May 2017 #10
Gillibrand is out HoneyBadger May 2017 #21
Why should they? JustAnotherGen May 2017 #26
"A solid record of winning?" JayhawkSD May 2017 #100
Gillibrand is from NY HoneyBadger May 2017 #102
You'll of course support your premise with objective and relevant evidence...? LanternWaste May 2017 #116
She ran, she won HoneyBadger May 2017 #120
Obama and Clinton both won in Massachusettes also and Won bigger there than WArren did JI7 May 2017 #135
By your definition, trump has a solid record of winning too frankieallen May 2017 #138
Tulsi? No way! oasis May 2017 #132
I won't vote for her...if she does this. Demsrule86 May 2017 #69
Maybe she is auditioning for Bernie's Party? WhiteTara May 2017 #54
I don't think that's what she said. nt JCanete May 2017 #125
My best guess is that this is her clumsy, ill-considered way to "win over" Trump voters, thinking of WinkyDink May 2017 #4
Well, I don't like it. yardwork May 2017 #6
Neither do I. Silver Gaia May 2017 #7
I don't like it either. Starry Messenger May 2017 #41
Well, isn't that the "goal" of some of the leadership right now? ehrnst May 2017 #12
Pelosi and Schumer are trying to appeal to delisen May 2017 #18
This was entirely predictable. athena May 2017 #22
I really do not see or hear any Democrats saying they want to move further "right." nikibatts May 2017 #32
Kickig The Ones Who Elected Them In The Teeth Me. May 2017 #71
I suppose romana May 2017 #68
I think it's a very bad strategy. Elections are won on hope and positivity, not negativity. yardwork May 2017 #77
She'll never win over Trump voters. smirkymonkey May 2017 #106
Many of them hate women, for one thing. Alienating the Democratic base won't make up for that. yardwork May 2017 #108
Unfortunately, that's true. smirkymonkey May 2017 #110
I agree. New people, a new message. yardwork May 2017 #113
She is lightly toasted in my book..n/t monmouth4 May 2017 #8
Appeal to Bernie supporters for her next election? She's my Senator and I am disappointed in this seaglass May 2017 #9
It's our fault for refusing to vote for HRC. athena May 2017 #25
She is criticizing Obama because he is out of office. She delisen May 2017 #11
Nope. progressoid May 2017 #96
White privilege BumRushDaShow May 2017 #13

+ 1. My thought exactly lunasun May 2017 #56
Not very presidential, imo yardwork May 2017 #58
Dividing dividing dividing sharedvalues May 2017 #15
Yes, it has been blown way out of proportion! angstlessk May 2017 #17
I don't even know what this is about, and I don't intend to find out. demmiblue May 2017 #37
Appealing to the neglected racist voters. nt LexVegas May 2017 #16

She believes the hype that there are more than a few independent votes up for grabs HoneyBadger May 2017 #24
.... Kahuna7 May 2017 #27
It is amazing that you posted this response. I came to the very same conclusions. nikibatts May 2017 #29
+1 tallahasseedem May 2017 #122
She is out of touch with the base of the party La Lioness Priyanka May 2017 #83
I disagree with some of what she says.. mountain grammy May 2017 #23
Thanks for that. You're right, she said so much else in that interview. Demit May 2017 #34
Yes, that is indeed the point jberryhill May 2017 #36
I read her entire statement, in context, and it is criticism of Obama. yardwork May 2017 #38
On that point, I agree with you. mountain grammy May 2017 #53
That's my question. yardwork May 2017 #57
Personally, I don't know why she chose to do that.. mountain grammy May 2017 #73
Very disappointed in her. Adrahil May 2017 #28
That's exactly what I see. yardwork May 2017 #55
She did not and does not ignore Trump. She goes on at length about him: Demit May 2017 #72
Her criticism of her own party gets the headlines, though. yardwork May 2017 #76
This headline? " Run against Trump? Elizabeth Warren will certainly stand and fight" progressoid May 2017 #91
That's the media's doing. Newspapers choose what to headline. C'mon, you know that. Demit May 2017 #98
Exactly. A winning strategy takes the media's behavior into account. yardwork May 2017 #103
I think acting defensively is an exact wrong strategy. Demit May 2017 #112
You're completely missing the point. It's not about hurting Obama. yardwork May 2017 #114
? You started this thread around Warren's criticism of Obama. Demit May 2017 #119
I think she is trying to sidetrack her failure to bring voters to hillary in 2016.... beachbum bob May 2017 #30
Whatever she thinks she's doing, it's negative and will backfire. Demit May 2017 #31
I agree workinclasszero May 2017 #33
Someone took three sentences out of an interview and decided they could get clicks jberryhill May 2017 #35
That is an exaggeration and misrepresentation of my OP. yardwork May 2017 #39
"I would like to know why she is criticizing Obama at this time" jberryhill May 2017 #44
You're telling me what I think and why I posted this OP. yardwork May 2017 #47
I have no idea what you think jberryhill May 2017 #49
Your personal attack on me: yardwork May 2017 #52
That is a factual statement, not a personal attack jberryhill May 2017 #60
It's not a "juicy quote." It's three paragraphs and she starts by naming Obama: ucrdem May 2017 #61
It's three sentences. People don't speak in paragraphs. jberryhill May 2017 #63
Actually 6 sentences. And she packed three unwarranted insults into them: ucrdem May 2017 #64
Why are you defending unnecessary attacks on Dems. She didn't have to go there. brush May 2017 #78
Lol jberryhill May 2017 #82
Laugh it up. Why is she not smarter than that. And why don't you explain why a Dem is attacking Dems brush May 2017 #88
Why don't I explain what other people say? jberryhill May 2017 #92
Here. Go to this link. It does a great job in explaining the folly of attacking popular Dems brush May 2017 #97
People ALWAYS disingenuosly say this about words taken out of context by the media, 6000eliot May 2017 #128
It's not about whether or not Obama returns her phone calls. yardwork May 2017 #50
Obama returns your phone calls? jberryhill May 2017 #65
Obama also returns calls from Trump. What does that have to do with anything ? La Lioness Priyanka May 2017 #80
Yes, I'm sure his relationship with Trump is exactly the same jberryhill May 2017 #84
You didn't answer my question. How does it matter in this convo whose calls obama returns? La Lioness Priyanka May 2017 #90
Oh, that's simple jberryhill May 2017 #93
Is anyone calling for the recall of warren? La Lioness Priyanka May 2017 #104
No, did I suggest there was? jberryhill May 2017 #109
Lol. Ok. La Lioness Priyanka May 2017 #127
Because he's doing something she doesn't agree with? Volstagg May 2017 #40
That's not the criticism in referencing, though. yardwork May 2017 #43
He's still a big face of the Dem party. Volstagg May 2017 #46
Hmmm..... I don't like it. yardwork May 2017 #59
She did not say that Obama is out of touch with average voters. Demit May 2017 #95
It's not hard people!! 86derps May 2017 #42
I'm not a moderate. yardwork May 2017 #45
She names Obama and takes 3 unwarranted swipes in 50 words: ucrdem May 2017 #51
She has just lost the next primary, in case she was interested. world wide wally May 2017 #48
She probably lost some votes with those unneccessary swipes at Dems. Not smart at all brush May 2017 #85
Under the bus with her! alarimer May 2017 #62
Warren is the one criticizing President Obama. I'm asking why. yardwork May 2017 #74
It's ridiculous that no one is supposed to criticize Obama ever. alarimer May 2017 #140
And you're totally missing my point. Obama doesn't care what Warren says about him. yardwork May 2017 #146
positioning for 2020? TalenaGor May 2017 #66
You have to get yourself in headlines when your book comes out Lee-Lee May 2017 #67
Criticizing Barack Obama is not how to win a presidential election. MineralMan May 2017 #70
It certainly is disappointing, particularly in light of her financial background and how she.... George II May 2017 #75
As opposed to when she implied he was untrustworthy regarding TPP? La Lioness Priyanka May 2017 #79
yup, and Obama was right about TPP JI7 May 2017 #134
of course he was right and i was sorry to see HRC cave in to the populist nonsense La Lioness Priyanka May 2017 #141
What quote has concerned you? n/t Orsino May 2017 #81
She is promoting a book oberliner May 2017 #86
Agree! MojoWrkn May 2017 #87
Why are you singling out Obama? progressoid May 2017 #89
Warren singled out Obama. yardwork May 2017 #105
No, she used him as an example of "many in both parties" progressoid May 2017 #111
No Democrat should be attacking ANY prominent Democrat right now. yardwork May 2017 #115
To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by progressoid May 2017 #117
Obama is no longer the president. This is stupid. yardwork May 2017 #123
So, what are you saying? progressoid May 2017 #126
I'm saying that it is not at all strategic for Democrats to criticize him now. yardwork May 2017 #129
So at some point it will be strategic to criticize him? progressoid May 2017 #131
Around here, never zipplewrath May 2017 #144
I don't understand either heaven05 May 2017 #94
Yes. Totally not smart. Don't give them low-hanging fruit to use against you in 2020. brush May 2017 #101
This is what I'm seeing, and it's not just Warren. Bad strategy on the part of some Democrats. yardwork May 2017 #107
Message auto-removed Name removed May 2017 #99

That is what I always have liked about her mvd May 2017 #130
Unconditional loyalty is for the GOP loyalsister May 2017 #133
Obama is no longer an elected official. It's stupid to do this. yardwork May 2017 #137
Seriously? loyalsister May 2017 #145

Sadly that's true loyalsister May 2017 #143
