What if Elizabeth Warren doesn't run, and throws her support to Hillary?

[ProSense]

Would you support Martin O'Malley if he runs?

[JaneyVee]

1. There's no way Sen. Warren is running in 2016.

Besides, she realizes how useful she is in the senate. Btw, if Hillary does run Liz Warren will most certainly throw her support behind her.

[Ninga]

16. I agree. nt

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. It's too early to know who I'll support.

Three years is an eternity in politics. I will support whichever Democrat seems to have the best chance of defeating whichever clown the GOP is likely to choose.

[Dawgs]

3. Maybe, but I'd rather support Howard Dean. n/t

[Mojorabbit]

11. I am hoping Russ Feingold has an interest in running. nt

[madokie]

12. I'm an original Deaniac

So I'd probably have to go with him if he runs too

[uponit7771]

4. Yeaper, based off a good number of statements on DU that's exactly what would happen...

...and if OMalley dosen't run they'll support Rand Pa... I mean someone else

[cali]

14. what a pile. you seem to have a problem with people supporting democrats not named

Hillary Clinton.

that's exceedingly lame.

[Proud Public Servant]

5. O'Malley, Brown, or whoever

is talking about regulating the banks, closing corporate loopholes, raising corporate taxes, cutting military spending, and reigning in the national security state. Of course, if Hillary is talking about all those things I won't need another candidate...but I'm not holding my breath.

[Electric Monk]

6. What if my dad was my aunt? This is waaaaaaaay too early. nt

[customerserviceguy]

19. Then, you'd be your own cousin.

And you could still marry yourself in about half of the states.

[KamaAina]

7. What if KamaAina doesn't run, and throws his support to Lee Mercer, Jr. (ALL THREE!!!)?

Just as likely. Warren and Clinton have nothing whatsoever in common except the lack of a Y chromosome.

[JoePhilly]

8. Poking the Hornet's nest I see.

Poke poke poke.

[cali]

13. how is that poking the hornet's nest? do you actually believe that

everyone who's opposed to Hillary is going to angrily flip out over that query? bzzzzt. fail.

I've been saying for quite some time that Warren probably won't run and that that would be a wise decision, unless she's determined to run as a means for getting a message out. Warren doesn't have the political experience or the political genius of a Barack Obama or Bill Clinton. She's run one campaign and although she improved over its duration, it was not a stellar campaign. She also doesn't have the backing she'd need to mount a successful campaign. People who compare her to Obama do so erroneously. He'd run for office multiple times before running for the Presidency.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Warren supports Hillary and I certainly wouldn't hold that against her. On the other hand, it wouldn't have any influence on me. I still wouldn't support Hillary- no matter who endorses her.

Hillary is an impressive figure. I respect what she's accomplished in her career, but I don't respect more than a few of her positions. that's quite separate from the distaste I feel for the prospect of having the Clinton circus- quite a bit of which is not the fault of the Clintons- back in the White House.

You are sadly predictable.

[JoePhilly]

15. Everyone ... no. Some, absolutely.

And since I did not mention you, I'm not sure what you're all worked up about.

There is a rather vocal contingent here who (a) dislike Hillary a great deal, and (b) really, really, really, wants Warren to run because she (at least currently) is sufficiently liberal.

Some of them would absolutely flip out if the scenario in the OP were to occur.

No doubt about it. And that's very predictable.

[daleanime]

9. Well, gee.....

I guess I would support which ever candidate who position on the issues I care about most closely matches my own.




Just a crazy little habit of mine.

[cali]

10. That's what most likely will happen.

[JoePhilly]

17. Agree.

[HappyMe]

18. I really don't think Warren will run in 2016.

Clinton has yet to say that she will run. If she does I hope there is a primary.

I wonder how many will crap their pants if she doesn't run.

[herturn2016]

20. What will happen if Warren supports Hillary?

Worldview implosion!

Could happen. When the primaries are in full swing and pols start making endorsements, no reason one hard-working woman in the party wouldn't support another.

Still, it's a little bad form to bring up prospective worldview implosions still a couple of years off.

[Zorra]

21. If God ran for President as a Green, would you vote for Her, or Hillary?

Admittedly, the media would ruin Her reputation, and She would be too liberal to have any chance of winning.

[ChangeUp106]

22. Endorsements mean nothing to me nt

[wilsonbooks]

23. What if Hillary doesn't run and throws her support to Warren?

Would you support her?

[dogknob]

24. Until we completely marginalize the GOP, it's either the Dem of a basket of asps

That's how Feinstein holds us hostage here...

...and that's how Hilary Clinton will get my vote.

Sick.
