PHILADELPHIA -- Sen. Elizabeth Warren received the conquering hero reception from thousands of progressive Democrats at a conference in Philadelphia, while Washington Gov. Jay Inslee had to follow her on stage.

Warren delivered the fiery oratory and issue expertise that is rapidly eclipsing Sen. Bernie Sanders for support on the Democratic left.

"A progressive agenda is supported by anywhere between three-fifths and three-quarters of Americans: A progressive agenda is America's agenda," declared the Massachusetts senator.

Hundreds in the crowd left after Warren spoke. A pair of left activists from Seattle, one an influential Sierra Club activist, were among those departing.

Inslee tried to get across to the Netroots Nation crowd a basic point: I've walked your talk. Just look at what I've done.

He described Washington as "a template for progressive successes we need to expand across the United States," which "needs to do what we've done in Washington."

The state has "the best gender equity law in the country," Inslee said. The State just enacted "the largest teacher pay increase" in the country. "We have 50,000 people driving electric cars."

1. Both Warren and Inslee are in my top five.

While it's still early, I imagine this race will come down to Biden, Warren, and a third candidate who hasn't quite emerged yet. This is similar to what happened in 2008.
