Elizabeth Warren

No, she’s not a “populist”:

We are in the midst of a record wealth gap between America’s rich and middle class, according to the Pew Research Centers. That has fueled the populist opposition to Washington among Main Street Americans on both sides of the political line — and Warren is trying to cash in on it.

That’s fine; that’s what we do in America. But it isn’t populism, as will be seen when people do not rise up.
Populism is an ideology extolling the virtues of the people against the depravities of elites — such as Harvard Law professors like Warren, according to Baylor University political science professor Curt Nichols.

The notion that the Democrats are the party of the “little people” is insane. The two biggest donors of the 2014 election were Tom Steyer and Michael Bloomberg, who promoted insane green policies and gun restrictions that would be devastating for the majority of Americans.

Will Warren sell outside her bubble? No better than Wendy Davis, I suspect. I’m hoping that she’ll be this cycle’s Barack Obama, when it comes to knocking off Hillary and being the nominee.

  1. The important thing among the liberals who saturate everything here in Massachusetts is that she’s a basically a “democratic socialist.” AKA, the Harvard Faculty should run the country. Very democratic, that.

    And you have to admit she’s a lot better looking than Bernie Sanders of VT, who I hear is contemplating a “run” for president as an open socialist within the Democratic party.

  2. A recent poll put Hillary at 57% and Warren at 9% … Warren keeps saying she has no plans on running. With those numbers I do not blame her.

    1. Enh, I don’t think those polls mean anything right now. Where was Obama at right now in 2006? He probably wouldn’t have even made one of these lists.
