Related: About this forum"Professor Warren"
Elizabeth Warren ran against then Senator Scott Brown in Massachusetts and kicked his ass into the gutter where he belonged.
During that race, Brown was enough of an idiot to consistently refer to her as "Professor Warren." I guess he thought that people in Mass. would sneer at a woman who was educated, brilliant, and who "didn't know her place." Big mistake. He's now history.
However, this happened in Mass. Would it work countrywide? If she were to win the nomination and Trump started attacking her as "Professor Warren," with all the implications that Brown thought went with it, would it work countrywide? I don't know. But I don't have much confidence in the average intelligence of American voters.
Right now, I'm still undecided. But I'm leaning heavily toward this wonderful, brilliant woman as our nominee.

the base might like it, and i agree, it is hard to go wrong counting on the murikan people to be stupid.
but i think anything related to smart only makes him looks worse.

(2,574 posts)He was very,very popular (considered a nice guy, even called Senator McDreamy) until both the "Professor" and "Pocohantas" shaming
became tiresome, ugly. petty...and resoundingly backfired. He simply had nothing else in his arsenal to combat Warren's wisdom, cheerful resolve, and impeccable reputation of fighting for the working/middle class. Brown ended up looking like a clueless nitwit.
So will Trump. Name calling and labeling does not work on Elizabeth Warren. In fact it's the most self destructive act any opponent against her can pull

(61,599 posts)There is no "safe" candidate. The criminals succeeded in painting squeaky clean, sensible shoe wearing Hillary Clinton as a some kind of evil genius cyber-criminal guilty of crimes against humanity. President Obama, in their representation, is a foreign-born stealth Muslim who destroyed the USA. His wife was portrayed as some kind of slut because... bare arms... while Melania, who actually posed for soft-porn photos, is portrayed as a paragon of virtue.
There is no reasoning with foolish people.
