"Boom goes the dynamite!"

Don't think for one minute that Warren can't hold her own. They will underestimate her at their own peril.

Talk about passion and fire! Been waiting for this from somebody!

[phantom power]

1. It sort of amazes me that for 30 years the Dems have failed to make this argument.

[Enthusiast]

26. Ain't that the truth.

No one has benefited more from "America" than the corporations. Yet they have betrayed the interests of the American citizen. It is way past time to make this argument. It should be made every time a "Democrat" is in front of a camera. If they do not make this argument they do not represent our interests.

[stillwaiting]

41. One day it will stop amazing you if you come to believe that the point you made is not by accident.

The elite have done a very good job of co-opting the People's Party over the past 30 years.

It's an easy argument to make isn't it?

I wonder why a large majority of our elected officials never seem to be able to argue as effectively for progressive policies as their unelected base?!?!

Hmmmm..........

I don't believe our elected officials are stupid or ignorant on our points of view. They tend to campaign brilliantly on them.

[MarianJack]

2. What Can I Say But...

...WOW!

This is a voice we NEED in the Senate.

PEACE!

[Hassin Bin Sober]

5. This is a voice we NEED in the Oval Office.

But the Senate is a start.

[MarianJack]

15. I addressed the Senate because...

...she is running for the Senate.

As for the oval office, somebody is going to have to be the first woman president. She would be a good one. At 56 I do believe that I'll live to see a woman president.

PEACE!

[Hassin Bin Sober]

16. I know and I agree.

It's just that so much gets lost in the Senate.

:)

[thereismore]

34. She just might be the one. nt

[Ishoutandscream2]

3. Damn, she's really, really good

[Randypiper]

12. I agree, I sent her money

But being good, being right isn't enough as a politician. I hope she's effective too.

[sabrina 1]

19. You haven't seen her under attack by Republicans. No Dem

I've seen has held their own AND trashed nasty Republicans, with grace and facts, the way she has.

Well, other Alan Grayson, who is beyond compare on the floor of Congress when up against Republicans.

[Randypiper]

21. Although they deserve it, you won't be an effective senator if you trash Republicans.

And Alan Grayson lost his reelection.

[sabrina 1]

22. Alan Grayson lost because he was targeted with billions of dollars exactly

because he was so effective on the floor of Congress decimating Republican lies. And because the leadership of the party did not back him. Which is why we have to change all that. No Republican liar will get away with lying to the public if we have hundreds opf Alan Graysons to stop them. What we have now is a bunch of wimps in control. Miss Manners doesn't work in politics. Look at this country and tell me we don't more of Alan Grayson, and less of those who 'compromise' away our rights and everything else.

He will win again, politicians often lose an election here and there, but that never stops the good ones, or even the bad ones sadly.

And you won't win elections by letting the liars lie, and the bullies make you squirm either.

Elizabeth Warren has been fiercely attacked in Congress by vicious Republicans trying to stop her from being nominated to the position she created. She handled them magnificently, they could not shake her. Their attacks were so nasty even members of their own party were embarrassed by them. But they sure did not want her watching what their buddies on Wall St. are up to.

[Randypiper]

24. Hope your right about Grayson. I like to see him back.

I think many Democrats think compromise means capitulation.

[Enthusiast]

30. No, compromise with Republicans only

means betraying the interests of the American people.

[Enthusiast]

28. Grayson spoke the truth about the Republicans.

And only the truth. It is just too bad Republicans wallow in their trash. They are wrong and disingenuous on every single issue.

[Stuart G]

44. Incredible, K and R nt

[klook]

4. She will shred any Republican trying to debate her

using nothing more than plain old common sense and compassion...

Two qualities that are hard to find in today's political climate!

Any politician opposing her had better start checking the "Dog Catcher Wanted" ads.

[mazzarro]

6. Wow - O - Wow

I am loving this! This woman is great all around and I am looking forward to her going far and high in politics. Democratic leadership better not try to tone down her voice in anyway way.

[northoftheborder]

7. This woman deserves my support, even though I do not live in Mass.

She would represent me anyway, as an American senator. Hooray for her, for the courage and commitment to follow this call to run. Hope she doesn't allow the Blue Dog elements to water her down.

[bowens43]

8. Fantastic!!

this is what people need to hear and understand.

[indepat]

9. My simple prayer: may I live to see Elizabeth Warren as president of the United States

:patriot:

[Renew Deal]

10. This needs to be seen by more of DU

[OffWithTheirHeads]

11. kr

[Worship Money]

13. As bad the political climate is...

....honesty and fervor actually DO help you get votes. I generally find so-called "middle of the road" voters annoying, but you actually can sway some of them by simply being (or SEEMING to be) legitimately behind your positions.


You see, Democrats? Stop putting on hunting vests and pretending you praise JaysusasLord every morning. Everybody knows you don't, and it sounds/looks like crap when you act like you do.

[hvn_nbr_2]

14. I hate to be the one to say this...

but that woman better stay off small planes. "They" will not tolerate her.

[Are_grits_groceries]

17. I thought the same thing.

"Small planes.............."

[Enthusiast]

32. They have a myriad of ways of getting rid

of the opposition. If they want her bad enough she will be gone.

[Uncle Joe]

18. Kicked and recommended.

Thanks for the thread, Are_grits_groceries.:thumbsup:

[TEXASYANKEE]

20. Yeah!

I would love to see more of *this* on the mainstream media and less of kooks like Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, etc etc.

[ljm2002]

23. She is so great!!!

A great big K&R!

[proReality]

25. Elizabeth Warren for President! n/t

[Enthusiast]

27. Kicked and recommended! nt

[CanonRay]

29. If Dems make this argument

we'll take back the House, and keep the Senate and Presidency. Wall street ain't gonna like her.

[12AngryBorneoWildmen]

31. Just WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!

AND WOW! This should be a spoken out loud pledge/creed/motto/battle cry by every Democratic candidate from the very first day they dip their toes in the waters of politics. Every day. I'd like to hear Mary Landrieu repeat this. Yeah right. You can reach her at that motel room she shares with Ben Nelson and David Vitter. More Pampers please.

[thereismore]

33. This is the kind of speak that everybody must understand. So happy to have her! nt

[Daphne08]

35. I love this woman!

She is smart, articulate, etc., etc., etc.

[ejbr]

36. LOVE her!!!! n/t

[disillusioned73]

37. K&R for Mrs. Warren..

:dem: I really hope the circle jerks don't water down her message and fire..

[DireStrike]

38. I remember another passionate politician that said all the right things.

Granted, he didn't say THESE right things. That means the discourse is being moved left, and that's a good thing.

Just be careful who you trust.

[WillyT]

39. HUGE K & R !!! - Thank You !!!

:kick:

[tweeternik]

40. Bravo Elizabeth Warren!! God bless you!! n/t
