Given that Mitch McConnell just wrote the only campaign, both primary and general election, ad that Warren will ever need:
Want someone who will not give up on you? Elizabeth Warren
Want someone who will fight the entrenched powers in Washington? Elizabeth Warren
Want to not only drain the swamp but unearth the bodies buried? Elizabeth Warren
Trump is terrified of her. McConnell obviously is as well. She is Bernie’s natural heir and he would do right by turning his organization lock stock and barrel over to her (even though she endorsed Hillary). She would have a tremendous head start not only toward being the Dem front-runner but in building the true grassroots organization Bernie knew we needed.
Who do you run her with? Had he won, Jason Kander would have been her ideal running mate.
I believe we need a large and vigorous Democratic primary, so I do not want others to stay out of the race. But its hard to see how she wouldn’t be our choice right now.
Who will our Dem candidates be in 2020?
Elizabeth Warren
Corey Booker
Tim Kaine
Kamala Harris
Kristin Gillibrand
Klobachur or Franken
Jay Inslee (Trump fighting Gov of Washington)
Xavier Becerra
Julian Castro
Ron Wyden?
Running mates? Depends on how bad things are.
If we can shoot the moon because we are winning no matter what, I’d go all female (Klobachur) or for Becerra.
If we think we need a little balance, Inslee or Wyden may be a good choice.
If it is going to be rough, Franken makes Warren a lot more appealing because compared to him, she will seem nice (even though Al is a very very nice man).
Thoughts?
