ABC's Stephanopoulos Makes Elizabeth Warren Interview All About Hillary

[UCmeNdc]

ABC booked Senator Elizabeth Warren Today but instead of getting inside her mind and explaining why she's so popular, Stephanopolous focused to make the interview all about Hillary Clinton.


Stephanopolous focused to make most of the interview all about Hillary Clinton.

STEPHANOPOULOS: You've been pretty clear, and we showed it in Jeff Zeleny's piece, that you say you're not running for president in 2016. It seems like you've just affirmed it again. You also signed a letter -- several senators signed a letter earlier this year encouraging Hillary Clinton to run.
So is she your candidate in 2016?

WARREN: You know, all of the women -- Democratic women, I should say, of the Senate urged Hillary Clinton to run. And I hope she does.

STEPHANOPOULOS: You hope she does. And if she does, she is your candidate, you're going to endorse her?

WARREN: If Hillary -- Hillary is terrific.

1. Clearly, if Hillary runs, Elizabeth won't.

This is the ONLY wiggle room in her statements.

2. Expect the worst with Snuffy and you won't be disappointed

Remembering his Hannity-fed Wright/Ayers questioning of Obama in 2008 which turned an entire debate into shit...

3. I don't like Snuffaluffagus

He's always so inside Washington politics & trying to get a scoop.

4. John Amato cherry-picked a couple of sentences.

The lead-up to the interview covered Elizabeth Warren's popularity, her heroine status among progressives, and Stephanopoulos's questions touched on several areas, including Warren's latest book, A Fighting Chance, the financial industry, and her past political affiliation and current view of the GOP. It was a brief interview but broader than Amato suggests.
