Elizabeth Warren Spotted At White House
Financial reform advocate Elizabeth Warren was spotted leaving the White House Thursday.

MSNBC's Savannah Guthrie tweeted news of Warren's apparent visit a little after 5 p.m.

Warren, who is the chair of the Congressional Overisight Panel, is a possible nominee for a new consumer financial protection bureau created by the new Wall Street reform law.

Senator Chris Dodd has publicly questioned Warren's confirmability and management skills.

2. She's Paid by Congress, not White House

Perhaps Obama has finally blinked--and recognized reality.

5. Hey.....I know!
Let's speculate using a lot of negativity,
cause any news has got to be bad news always!

9. If it involves the WH and Big Money it usually ends up being that.
But we can cross our fingers and hope at least this time good prevails.

10. He sure did leave CT didn't he? Both he and Lieberman...

13. "Sorry, but you weren't selected for the position"
"But we felt an email would have been too impersonal"

Been there.

I just hope I'm wrong.
