I love Elizabeth Warren. I believe strongly that she will NOT run for president in 2016 (for what I think are very good reasons); and I am resigned to my observation that there just aren't other strong candidates popping up for us. Hillary is a strong general election candidate, even though she's less liberal than a lot of us would like. I will support an alternative through the primary, if I can find one I like and believe in. But I don't understand why everyone who supports someone else has to be so virulently opposed to Hillary. If she's the nominee and the republicans put up a clown, then she will win, and many things we've fought for, for decades, will not be immediately dismantled. That may be a low and sad bar but if that's where the bar is - we need to face reality and get on with it, and make sure we at least clear that bar before we raise it.
