Well, I've just switched from Warren to Biden...

...and I do it with a heavy heart, in some ways. Warren was a great Senator, and would have made a great President. I would have loved to see her up against the Holy Moran Emperor. But it's not to be. But I'm pretty sure her voice will be heard in the Biden administration. Thank you, Elizabeth, for everything you gave to our party and country...

But my heart is for Biden now. I'm kind of torn. I have nothing against Joe Biden, however, and I believe that he can unite Democrats.

and I would have been happy to vote for her in the GE. I'm sure she will continue her activism for reforms.

From the first time I became aware of her.

She sure showed Republicans when they refused to allow her to run the agency she created. Put her in the Administration . Secretary of Labor?

And it pisses me off that all I have to choose from when I finally get to vote is two old white guys. I've had it with that group always getting the votes and ruining life for everyone else.

The only hope I have at this point is that we take back the Senate and make demand for equal rights, starting with the ERA.

Hopefully, she'll have a key role in the next administration, though I'd hate to lose her voice in the senate.

It would be nice to hear her tell McConnell to sit down and shut up.

welcome, and I know you must be very sad. I believe she will have roll in the Biden administration...maybe VP who knows?

When it became apparent that reaching 270 wasn't a given. Beating Trump is priority 1-1000 for me. So, it's Biden. But Warren is best policy candidate, bar none.
