She was the most competent legislator and bureaucrat in the bunch, and the most accomplished professional. Apparently not so much as a candidate, but I blame the electorate for needing some ill-defined quality that apparently Sen. Warren doesn't have enough of. Or it's the lack of a penis.

ON EDIT: MY WARREN AVATAR HAS BEEN DISAPPEARED!

I wanted a progressive voice without the toxicity and divisiveness that Bernie represents with his constant attacks on the Democratic party.

I wanted someone who I saw as intelligent, honest and fit to be President who is not narcissistic about not getting enough coverage or getting biased coverage.

I wanted someone who was supportive of President Obama and who does not have to splice together soundbites to lie to the American people.

They would be a nice complement to each other. It might also help some of the less extreme Bernie supporters feel better about their vote, and might change the mind of any bernie or busters.

Since of the choices there is no one else I will vote for in the primary, I have to switch.

If something bizarre happens and Joe isn't in it when I vote in April, well I will write someone in. I am committed to support the nominee (not just vote) in the GE, but I can use my vote differently in April. Sigh. (If Joe is there, which he probably will be, I will vote for him even in the primary ... and may even be happy about it by that time. Just can't be happy today.)

I am very happy that so many Liz supporters I know are switching to Biden, though.

Takes more than that to make me feel 'undecided' regardless of the word appearing below my posts.

I thought long and hard before committing to her as my candidate.

I'll get on board with my third, and only viable, choice tomorrow.
