Skip the first minute of the video it's the intro to the show.

Of course Elizabeth Warren does a great job discussing the issues and sticking up for OWS.

Part 2 of the interview:

1. Damn, if I was single, 30 years younger, 6" taller and $5 million richer

She is one terrific lady.

[Lorien]

17. She's 62. That surprised me. I always thought that she was in her late 40's

or early 50's at most.

[bertman]

2. I love the way she took the Occupy Wall Street question head on. REC. nt

[SoapBox]

3. Bravo Elizabeth.

...I wish you were out here in California.

[glowing]

4. What was up with those reporters? Man how much were they paid to attack and ask

loaded questions designed to try to play gothchya. Are those the reporters Sarah Palin was talking about being attack dogs? So much for liberal media.. LOL.

8. I honestly did not find the reporters to

Be out of line. The one minor one, for me anyhow, was when they buried the words all and tactics in the questions on OWS, and it, in fact, gave her a great chance to address the issue. When they asked about outside influence, it allowed her to respond beautifully. I actually found them honest questions that - because of her responses - and her remarkable ability to speak coherently, intelligently and with consideration, showed me that here was a candidate who was not thinking in terms of the sound byte. She just knocked me out.

[glowing]

9. They were loaded questions... Fortunately, she's the smartest one in the room.

[tomg]

11. I can see how they would be loaded

For someone who is trying to win over that small slice of voters that everyone seems to vie for; however, those questions also allowed her to firmly agree with the aspirations and goals of OWS. I wish more Dems and Progressives would show the same kind of support and backbone. Well, even if we disagree on whether the questions were fair, we sure as hell agree that she was the smartest person in the room ( I would say she is the smartest person I have seen run for office, including Presidents Obama and Clinton, and I go back a long way.)

[valerief]

19. The whole freakin' media is loaded in Wall St's favor. nt

[dddem]

20. I agree

I was expecting her to respond to the bias in the ad, not so much the reporters' questions, but she didn't stray from her message. Good for her. I also think the reporters set her up (intentionally or not) to show her smarts - she was spot on, never hesitated, and showed her resolve (I should confess, I do have a crush on Ed Hardy, so I'm going to assume this was done on purpose).

13. They be good friends of Gail Huff

Former channel 5 reporter and wife of Scott Brown.

[glowing]

14. Ahh.. now it makes sense why the snark was inflected in their questions.

[Lorien]

16. I agree; the woman host was implying that Rove's accusations about OWS were true

and she behaved as if anyone who aligned themselves with OWS was some sort of radical.

[zentrum]

5. She's terrific n/t

[tomg]

6. Thanks for the link to the second part.

It is even better. She is off--the-wall intelligent and articulate. In a way, it was funny because on the pop question part, she gets the personal, irrelevant question wrong and all the substance ones right and then goes on to explain and consider them. Actually, in style, she reminds me of Bill Clinton ( although her substance is better and her presentation is , I find, clearer).

[Iwillnevergiveup]

7. Brilliant responses

to snarky interviewers. Never lost her poise. She's gonna win!

15. Just did, thanks.

We need a lot more Elizabeth Warrens!

[FarLeftFist]

18. Uhhh, can we just give her the presidential nomination.

[Denver Progressive]

21. Elizabeth Warren is the real deal.

I wish I had a few bucks to send her way, but for now I send my full support and I wish her luck!

[Quixote1818]

22. So if she gets into the Senate, what is the soonest she can run for President? nt

[midnight]

23. I'ts nice that Elizabeth allows the OWS movement it's own ownership...

She does a nice job explaining that she is for the middle class... All her actions support this too... She stays clear about all the reason she is running and it's for the middle class... She want's to take it to the senate floor and give them a chance...
