... into a more formal endorsement of Bernie for being more on her side than both of them are in resisting the bankster's control over our government to work more for the people in crafting better legislation later to overturn crap like that which serves mostly the bankster's interests...

There was definitely some earlier comments when Biden was considering running that were falsely projecting Liz as a supporter and possibly a running mate for Biden. Perhaps they talked, but I don't think Warren can reconcile hers and Bidens' stances on this bill to work together on a presidential campaign. She would lose her base more than she would help us all gain support in the areas we need support for the people.

I was just making a pun using Biden's name in regards to how he was taking his sweet time telling everyone he wasn't running.

i saw comments by H's fans elsewhere about Warren's absence - and they concluded she wasn't there because "they're waiting for just the right time" for Warren to endorse HRH HRC.

You're supposed to publically support her and privately vote against her.

It was a game to go along with all the other endorsements of late to show just how awesome Hillary is, according to her peers that are in the same business.

They must have assumed Warren would participate (possibly thinking about that secret silly letter of oath for Hillary a few months ago that Warren was said to be included in) and have another snaffu, glittering endorsement.

But it didn't work that way. It just goes to show Warren has principles and won't be played with. This did a lot of harm to Hillary, I think. The separation of ideas and policies between the two is growing wider, as it should.

It went by pretty quickly, but I thought they'd said a group of senators had endorsed Hillary -- with the glaring omission of Sen. Warren. Maybe this was what I'd heard, as your link notes:

Despite signing a letter that urged Clinton to run for president in 2013, Warren has so far declined to officially endorse her campaign. The senator, who liberal organizers failed to draft into a presidential campaign for much of 2014 and 2015, told CNN earlier this year that the letter she signed was not an endorsement for the Clinton campaign.


Of course, Hillary's fans on DU insisted that the 2013 letter constituted an endorsement. They say so many unfounded things.

I really feel for Warren's predicament, as Hillary is the opposite of what she stands for and yet Hillary has managed to make herself very, very powerful in Democratic Party politics. There is so much wrong in all if that, it could lead a person to despair.

Those are the only people I can think of. Unless Clinton supporters see Warren as serious competition to HRC.

Warren would be my dream for first woman president.

The thought brings tears to my eyes, because the implications would be huge and very significant for American politics.

It would be so bold, so decisive. And what a battle, what a battle it would be.

And she should be the first woman President.

Quite profound.
