I Just Cast My Vote For Warren

She has the plan and has the campaign. She has demonstrated that she can go toe-to-toe with anyone, but especially, the wealthy and powerful. She has served America well as the head of the CFPB as she has served her state well as Senator from Massachusetts. She has my vote and my support.

I'm not worried about who can or cannot beat Trump. The primary is still early. Only 4 states have voted. And to suddenly try to quiet the voices of more than 90% of the Democratic Voters who have yet to vote, I think is shameful. My hope is that Warren will do much better than expected today allowing this primary to continue until everyone has voted.

I like Warren and although I supported Buttigieg until he left the race, I was always a click away from changing my choice to Liz.

She has some great plans for our country!

Are people trying to cancel primaries? Candidates are dropping out and supporting other candidates but doesn’t that happen with every primary?

As Plouffe (and others) have explained a LOT, the primaries get late very early. Because of the way delegate apportionment works, any significant delegate lead is VERY difficult to overcome. As much as it pains me to say say, Liz has no chance. For me, it's time to move on to someone who does.

I can be convinced. Show me a realistic scenario where the math works out.

Just saying "no" doesn't counter the reality.

America surprised me by voting for Obama. I think Warren’s story would get told more effectively in the general. She worked hard to get where she is. She used to be a Republican for crying out loud, she will be able to win over women in the flyover states and suburban women who are sick of trumps hate and anger. Some people will want to be part of making history.

She can do the job.
