Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders may compete for space on the progressive left in Iowa
In Sanders absence, Warren has now visited Iowa three times in two months and amassed one of the states largest field operations to date. She's already begun to subtly distinguish herself on the trail.
I think that she has a good understanding about what the people in middle America are facing and some of the problems just in day-to-day life, said Jan Heikes, a 64-year-old social worker from Decorah who stood on a small window seat to try to catch a glimpse of Warren over the crowd.
Heikes said she likes Sanders message but is ready for a new messenger in 2020.
Im glad to have someone else like Elizabeth Warren, who has many, many of those same values, who is running, she said.

Time for the Sanders crowd to get on board the Warren train. Solidly to the left and only divisive if you are a Republican. She is well respected across the board in democratic circles.

I am glad to hear she is gaining traction in Iowa.
Despite some DUers wanting to smear Iowa caucus goers, they are in general left-liberals and progressives.
