you know they really, really want to take down Elizabeth Warren also. She and Franken were the very best at showing Republicans for what they are.

And the nearly 100% corporate media is ready to help

5. You know they are digging deep and wide to find her Achilles heel.

they've been trying to make 'Pocahontas' stick but so far it hasn't worked. Certainly liberal and socialist will be flying all over.
So no, she is far from safe. They will find something to twist and lie about and the corporate media will be happy to make it the top headline.

And maybe by the time the election comes the internet will be moving to corporate control.

The usual suspects here will support her ouster.

Don't mind what the rethugs are doing. This isn't about them. It's about keeping our party pure!

If they can slander and destroy Senator Franken - with the help of 30 cowardly Democratic Senators - they will be empowered to repeat the process on Schiff or anyone else.
