    The GOP is practically ignoring Warren.  I take that as a sign that she either poses no threat to win the nomination or they are hoping she can take the lead and somehow win.
    Completely agree. They want her to be the nominee. They probably see her as a second-rate Hillary who will be easier to tie to socialism than Hillary was, has less resources (both financial and personal connections) than Hillary, and isn’t married to a popular former president like Hillary. 

    Wow do these 2 comments nail it. The GOP would LOVE Warren as the nominee. 

    Warren will be crucified by trump and he will be able to drag her down to his level by eviscerating her for her dishonesty.

    She really needs to stop lying before she drags the party down.

    Unless you're Rosario Dawson.

    Even when he loses this nomination, he's a winner at life.

    Rosario Dawson.

    Warren is not dodgy, she is dishonest.
    Pete and Corey are who I like most from this group....but media doesn't like them.
    Well well well...look at us on the same team here. At least with regard to Pete. Surely it may seem difficult to overlook my potential bias here, but I do not live in St. Joseph county, and this have never been able to vote for him. But the guy seems to check damn near every box given his small amount of air time. He is so well spoken and seems so genuine. I firmly believe if he had equal air time to Biden/Warren, that he would be much higher in the polls. Alas, as mentioned, the media is absolutely dictating who the top 2 or 3 candidates are. 

    I would love to see them narrow down the field to 4 candidates very soon and have Pete be in that group. I do believe that could change things. Unfortunately, I they when it is narrowed down, they will go to the medias 3. That said, I see strong potential for any of the 3 to take Pete as their running mate. The dude is sharp!

  • Only way Dems win the election is with Biden.

    No other candidate is going to wield any power over the voters.

    There is also a lack of something new and fresh within the group.

    Warren or Buttigieg will be a losing battle so don't be so quick to ask for anyone.

    I didn't watch but saw a few clips. VP Joe sounded good this morning too. Soul-eater keeps taking aim at him because he's a threat to him. Not on my watch. I'll vote for the primary winner of course...experience is key to me. 
    Happy hump day all.

    Buttigieg was in the military and he's from the midwest.
    Warren is infinitely smarter than Trump. I think she would make him look foolish in a debate.

    That is not what the rest of the US think and are easy targets for the Trump machine to expose.

    Beto lost out too when he claimed that he wanted to take your guns away.

    I liked Wang but he was also too radical a thinker.  Oh well.

    Vote for Joe!

    Even in his own state, or especially in his own state, I don't know that Buttigieg would win. Indiana is as red as trump is orange. It's getting better, but very slowly.

    Looking foolish has proven to be ineffective at stopping the angry orange monster. But we can sure hope!

    “Looking foolish” in a debate or “losing” the debate means nothing. Did George W. Bush “win” any of his debates against Gore or Kerry? I dunno. I wasn’t scoring them. But probably not. He won both elections though. Or at least the one against Kerry lol.

    Why would you lump Pete in with Warren?

    Bush did win some of the debates because  Gore made mistakes. He was ridiculed for his lockbox comment and also for standing over bush trying to  intimidate him. 

    That look bush shot back at gore won him just enough votes. It's something Hilary failed to do when trump tried something similar with her.
