Elizabeth Warren is *Ready For Hillary* - Are YOU?

Last edited Fri Nov 1, 2013, 12:17 AM USA/ET - Edit history (1)

Dear Friends and Liberals:

Yesterday, Elizabeth Warren gave her full backing to Hillary's ascension America's helm, stating that... well, she didn't actually state anything, but someone knows someone who said they saw a secret letter that Barbara Boxer wrote suggesting to Hillary that she run and said that Sen. Warren's signature was on it, too. So Sen. Warren's endorsement are indisputably belong to Hillary, as we politically-savvy types know.

And this full-throated endorsement makes total sense: Warren and Hillary have very the same interests at the top of their lists: income inequality, banks, free trade, and war. And while their opinions on each of these might be totally different, they are certainly interested in the same topics. No doubt about it.

In preparation for her historic endorsement of Hillary-is-45, Warren firmly ruled out a presidential run of her own a few weeks ago, saying she's "not interested". Of course, President Obama also said the same thing right before he threw his hat in the ring, but - and I mean no disrespect here - while Obama plays amazing 11ty-dimensional chess even while asleep, Warren ain't the brightest bulb in the chandelier. She's just not smart enough to change her mind. Even the press is complaining that she "asks the most obvious question ever". The good people of Massachusetts certainly were gracious in showing charity towards that woman, and I admire that. Look at the wonderful way they are accepting of that silly baseball team with the dumb beards! Very charitable people, those Mass moonbats, but the rest of Americans want results, not charity.

In any case, it is settled. Warren's not running and her full support is behind Hillary.

She's ready!

Now, how about you? You ready to play with the in crowd? Or will you be Left Behind?

It's time to choose.

Best regards,

Moderate-Democrat Manny
Now! 50% less confrontational!


You're just going to have to get over it...Elizabeth Warren has made her decision, and she doesn't want to run. You'll just have to accept that and ....er.... MOVE ON, as it were....instead of engaging in repeated fits of pique. It's unseemly.

I just can't.

It's just not fair.

I guess I should be thankful for people like you who know how the world *really* works... but I'm so damned sad...

she is concerned when it comes to the Presidency. Several times, too.

So dry your eyes, buck up like a big kid, and ... move on. Smartly.

Divisiveness doesn't earn you any points--all the Democratic women in the Senate could tell you that.

I agree with Budowsky, but there seems to be more than one group publicly saying this:

I would absolutely run to the polling station to vote for Al Gore for President in 2016.
