Elizabeth Warren is brilliant. @#$%ing brilliant. [View all]

OK, I'm biased. But look at what she did today: She announced a bill to bring back Glass-Steagall, co-sponsored by John McCain. John McCain.

Sure, the thing will be shot down by the Insane Clown Posse that consists of almost all of one side of the aisle, and much of the other side too, but now when she runs for president Warren can say:

1. I can absolutely work with non-insane Republicans - look at my record.
2. I tried to bring back a good regulation that was assassinated by a president who just wanted to make a few bucks for his family after he left office. Yes Hillary, that's means your bank account.

Add this to her attempts to lower interest rates on student debt, to raise the minimum wage, and to put bankers in jail - all of which are favored by at least two-thirds of Americans - well, this is gonna be great!

Excelsior!
