Paul Wellstone used to say he could use ten more progressives in the Senate -- "or one Elizabeth Warren."

Elizabeth Warren has a track record of holding Wall Street accountable and fighting for regular people like us. Now, she's thinking about a run to win back Ted Kennedy's Senate seat from Republican Scott Brown in 2012. Let's tell her she'd have our support!

Join the "Draft Elizabeth Warren for Senate" movement

3. Yes!
Peggy:hi:
I would love to have her as my senator!
Still can't believe we got a republican centerfold in place of our beloved Ted.

People with Integrity from the Democratic Wing of the Democratic Party are my kind of Democrat.

6. I think she would be a worthy succussor to the men who have held that seat in the past.
I'll send the President 20 bucks to get him re-elected.
But if Liz wants that seat, I'll send her fifty.
Peace all

11. How could she obtain the power of 10 Senators?
Get elected to 10 Senate Seats? Which 10?

14. Leadership, influence, trust, brains, and powerful arguments that might get a Turd Wayist
to vote like a progressive on occasion. Sometimes a Senator is more than just their vote.

Ted Kennedy might have just had his one vote but he counted more than a Ben Nelson.
