Will Elizabeth Warren be the straw that breaks affirmative action’s back? Black ministers upset.

Posted by William A. Jacobson on June 04, 2012 47 Comments

Put aside the pros and cons of affirmative action. Assume that at some level you support affirmative action. Those who support affirmative action should be the most upset with Elizabeth Warren’s fake “woman of color” and “minority law teacher” status based on her own self-reporting...

Elizabeth Warren is full of firsts

Posted by William A. Jacobson on June 04, 2012 41 Comments

Elizabeth Warren already laid claim to being the first nursing mother to take the New Jersey Bar exam, an unverifiable and likely untrue claim: Now, despite all the facts the contrary, Warren is claiming that if elected she will be the first Native American Senator from...

Elizabeth Warren: Exposing me for who I am means you’re nasty

Posted by William A. Jacobson on June 03, 2012 40 Comments

Elizabeth Warren is the Democratic Party nominee for Senate, after party leaders twisted arms to make sure Marisa DeFranco did not make the primary ballot. Warren may have become the nominee, but she’s still not Native American. Whereas prior to May 2012 one might have said Warren simply...

Results of Massachusetts Democratic Convention (Update: Dem Delegates knock DeFranco off ballot, hand nomination to Warren)

Results are trickling in. I’m having trouble finding any webpages with official results as of this moment, but the Twittersphere has reported that Elizabeth Warren received 95.77% of the vote. If this is confirmed, Warren will have successfully secured the Democratic nomination and won’t be...

Not The Boston Globe’s headline: Scott Brown maintains lead, Warren negatives rise

Posted by William A. Jacobson on June 02, 2012 19 Comments

A new poll shows trouble for Elizabeth Warren, but not if you just read The Boston Globe’s headline: Scott Brown, Elizabeth Warren neck and neck in new poll. But read on and the article tells a different story than the headline portrays (emphasis mine): Despite...

Elizabeth Warren needs an intervention

Posted by William A. Jacobson on June 01, 2012 54 Comments

I get the feeling that Elizabeth Warren is heading for an Edmund Muskie moment completely of her own making, unless those close to her step in soon. I don’t expect Warren to take advice from her political opponents, but she just can’t seem to take good advice even...

The objections of Cherokees to Elizabeth Warren’s false claims of Cherokee ancestry have made the news for weeks, first when genealogist Twila Barnes demanded that Warren tell the truth, and just yesterday with the formation of a new group of Cherokees demanding that Warren stop...

It’s Elizabeth Warren’s and Harvard’s federal filings, stupid

Posted by William A. Jacobson on May 31, 2012 50 Comments

Elizabeth Warren has played hard to get on the issue of her supposed Cherokee ancestry. Warren only admits to information after someone has the documents to prove her story wrong, and then her story changes. She originally denied having any idea why Harvard touted her...

Gov. Deval Patrick runs interference for Elizabeth Warren on false Cherokee claim

Posted by William A. Jacobson on May 30, 2012 41 Comments

This is beyond bizarre. I had heard about Deval Patrick saying something about how the people of Massachusetts don’t care about Elizabeth Warren’s false claim of Cherokee heritage, but until I saw this video (via Michael Patrick Leahy), I didn’t realize just how bad the press...

Saturday, June 2, is the Massachusetts Democratic Convention. Elizabeth Warren and Marisa DeFranco each need to obtain 15% of the vote at the convention to be on the September 6 primary ballot. There is a move afoot to keep DeFranco off the ballot to clear...

The sound of Elizabeth Warren’s silence

Posted by William A. Jacobson on May 28, 2012 16 Comments

As Politico notes, The Boston Herald has outdone The Boston Globe in reporting on Elizabeth Warren, although The Globe finally is coming around to some hard reporting after its editorial board declared the issue over weeks ago: Long before Republican Sen. Scott Brown vs. Elizabeth...

We know what Elizabeth Warren is running for, but what is she running from?

Posted by William A. Jacobson on May 27, 2012 38 Comments

I wasn’t going to do an Elizabeth Warren post today. Really. But in my in-box was a link to this story at The Boston Herald, Elizabeth Warren shuts door on Herald’s inquiry (video at the link): Senate hopeful Elizabeth Warren, in a sequel to an awkward...

When Elizabeth Warren has lost Alan Colmes

Posted by William A. Jacobson on May 26, 2012 29 Comments

Alan Colmes appears to be going the Ed Schultz route and practically begging Elizabeth Warren just to come clean. Like Schultz, Colmes still is a supporter, but feels a pain from Warren twisting in the winds which have come sweeping off the plains of Warren’s...

Posted by William A. Jacobson on May 25, 2012 16 Comments

While Elizabeth Warren is doing well in the polls, her story about not promoting herself as Native American for professional purposes continues to fall apart. Michael Patrick Leahy, writing at Breitbart.com today, links to an article in the Spring 1993 issue of the student-run Harvard Women’s Law Journal, when...
