22. If Warren starts talking like a Republican, what makes you think anyone who now supports her would

continue to do so? Do you think that 'loyalty' to a candidate trumps what is good for the country?

Let her start touting invasions of foreign ala Bush/Cheney and watch what happens to the support she now has. I for one, would be as outraged as I was on the night I watched Hillary stumble through her reasons for for giving such enormous power to one of the worst administrations, the lies were so obvious to most thinking people, in living memory. I had respected and admired her, until then.

Same thing with Warren and maybe she needs to know that. What we do know is that people CHANGE, but the issues do not.

And anyone who blindly continues to support someone who has betrayed the trust of those who support them, should never expect that support to continue.
