Clinton names Warren ally to transition team

[democrattotheend]

This is encouraging:

Hillary Clinton has named a progressive with close ties to Elizabeth Warren to her transition team in a move that seems aimed at mollifying liberals unhappy with earlier choices.

POLITICO has learned that Rohit Chopra, who battled for-profit colleges and loan servicers as the student loan ombudsman at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, has joined the team.

Chopra was an early hire at the consumer agency by Warren when she led it. When he was mentioned last year as a possible candidate to become New York’s top financial regulator, he won a ringing endorsement from the Massachusetts Democrat.

1. Controlling the narrative and wooing inclinations for hope, isn't BERNIE and is a Lie.

Elizabeth Warren is a great champion of the citizens of this country, she also held out till the bitter end, why ?

3. I am not following that either........

4. Sounds like someone is still mad that Elizabeth Warren decided not to endorse.

As if that would have magically fixed all the outreach problems from the campaign.

6. Sorry, for babbling . Hearing Bernie was successful in his platform at the convention, would

have been a vote of confidence for Sen. Warren being an " Ally " in the future, it's the past that worries many.

9. Still not getting your point

8. This makes perfect sense

10. So anything Hillary does in a progressive direction is to be cursed as a 'Lie'?

Just checking. Because it doesn't read like that to me, at all.

However, to someone who so bitterly hates Hillary that she is not allowed to be 'progressive' in any way without being accused of pandering, it might seem like a con job. I guess.

I was a Bernie supporter until Bernie supporters started with this crap, and Bernie didn't say a goddamned word about it.

Failure of leadership on Bernie's part, in my opinion.

7. Excellent choice! Someone qualified.

Says volumes about what we already know about HRC, she surrounds herself with qualified people like her.
