The Democratic Party is on life support.

On the wrong side on guns, terror and immigrants, and completely out of touch with the concerns of real Americans: email, paid speeches and NATO.

After the first Trump inauguration in January, what's left of of the Dumbocrats will fade away - no need for an opposition when perfection is in power. We won't need a silly Constitution - everyone will know we have the best president!

Once elected, will she take up the mantle of Saint Bernie?

For all her insistence on sane financial regulations, she is definitively part of the same establishment as Hillary.

I've never believed Warren was the "principled" progressive that a lot of the left portrays her as. That being said, I don't think her hooking up with Goldman Sachs best buddy will even register in the minds of most of the left. They probably think Clinton/Warren is a great, viable, ticket.

She's smart enough to know those floated before the midterm elections, are never actually around to run in the Primaries.

Oh, the mindless ad hominem routine of the republicans crowd.
We saw the Hillary hatred thread. Now the Warren hatred thread.
Is there anything in it that debates policy? Hummm....

Booger says

Maybe her grand father told her she has indian blood?
That's really a big deal. Worth a life time of political attacks.
She could also have slept with prostitutes and paid them to keep silent. I guess THAT wouldn't be a big deal for the right wing nuts here.

There is absolutely no possible way she was discriminated against for being seen as an Indian, and yet she was more than happy to reap the career benefits of being so identified. She is the Rachel Dolezal of the political set.

Poor Lizzy.... she's fucked.... Lies on an registration form to join the Texas Bar... the irony, a lawyer lying.... no wonder she's a Democrat.

Yes, she's busted for being a liar for decades.

To those who may not know, being a Native American is better than being a minority in a wheelchair for getting ahead.

There are numerous special scholarships, affirmative action, etc. if you have enough Native American in you.

She reminds me of that other nutty chick who said she "identified as black."

It's going to be almost funny seeing which pathetic loser they nominate for 2020.

"But, but, I have true integrity now, after I was unwillingly outed. Really, I do, true repentant integrity! You say I have to give WHAT back to have true integrity? NO, I earned it through hypocrisy, chicanery, and bullshit, it is MINE!"

She clearly had an agenda on her box checking. When I was in school, I always checked the White and Asian boxes because I was both. This is a blank line. If you are 99% white and 1% native American, you would write white in. It's 100% absent. Her run is over. She'll have to settle for getting reelected into the senate the rest of her life by the stupid voters.

Really hard to believe she can get support from the left - as the left decries cultural appropriation when some white dude cooks high end Mexican food in his restaurants. She benefited herself by lying about her ancestry. If the left doesn't force her out, it is just the usual hypocrisy and nothing has really changed. Same thing when NOW endorsed Bill Clinton even though his problems with assault/rape allegations were well known.

Or, you can only do wrong if you are a DWEM.

I support Elizabeth Warren identifying as a Native American.

If you can demand people recognize you're a woman, even when you have the body parts of a male, then you certainly change your race. Far less difference between Indian and White (or whatever) than there is between Male and Female in terms of chemistry and plumbing and appearance.

There is a massive inconsistency here. The Left wants Gender Bending, but cannot tolerate Racial Choice since it would put Intersectionality and their entire Oppression Narrative at risk if people could change their "Race".

She will definitely cause her competitors to waste money/effort on attacks, etc. And in the end, she still might get the nomination out of compromise between the Corporate Globalist Whores (Establishment Democrats) and the AOC Batshit crazy commies.

The Dem primary is going to be fun. Race appropriating, sleeping with Willie Brown, Black face supporting, eliminating airplanes... whew.

Notice it also put their Intersectionality and their entire Oppression Narrative at risk when people can identify at a different gender. The group-based oppressor/oppressed never made any sense to start with.

It doesn't, because "Trans People are Oppressed". It creates an oppression group to advocate on behalf of.

If a White can transfer to a Black whenever convenient, it messes up the whole intersectional redistribution scheme.

The only people who get upset over M2F are a tiny, tiny grouping of Essentialist TERF Lesbians who can easily be ignored/dismissed.

If Liberals allowed Transracialism, they'd lose most minorities very quickly.

Her run is over.

No. It is just beginning...for the Democrat primaries. Doesn't mean she'll GET the primary. But it doesn't mean she won't, either.

She will definitely cause her competitors to waste money/effort on attacks, etc. And in the end, she still might get the nomination out of compromise between the Corporate Globalist Whores (Establishment Democrats) and the AOC Batshit crazy commies.

Then the GOP/Trump will unleash on her and her sure-to-be-equally damaged running mate with attacks ads from all that free material (aka 'fecal mud') the Dems were throwing at each other for almost a year prior. :)

This strategy was quite evident in Trump's SOTU speech. Expect portrayals of Americans chasing down and eating zoo animals in the attack ads against the Dems.

I can't see her winning. She tried kicking off her campaign by declaring she's native american and had to apologize. Once you apologize, your run is over.

NEED TO CHANGE POCAHANTUS TO TONTO.

Well I'd give her a b+ for penmanship. .
