Elizabeth Warren is one of the most contrived politicians I’ve ever covered, exceeded only by Hillary Clinton. She leaves little to chance or spontaneous encounters.
That’s why Warren abhors interacting with reporters other than in planned settings with sympathetic questioners. Her running — literally — away from reporters in the Capitol hallways...
Elizabeth Warren repeatedly has said that she is not running for president.
Warren makes that statement, with the most earnest of faces, because she still has a November 2018 reelection to win, and her opponents are hitting her over the presidential plans. Republican candidate Geoff Diehl has made “Where’s Warren?” one of...
Rematch. REMATCH!
In Hillary’s mind, and the minds of #TheResistance, Hillary Clinton is the rightful president. Because (a) the Electoral College is a stupid thing and she won the popular vote, (b) the Russians rigged the election, (c) James Comey, having refused to prosecute Hillary despite overwhelming evidence, tanked Hillary’s campaign at...
Politico has reported that former President Barack Obama secretly met with nine possible 2020 Democrat presidential candidates like Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA).
It’s important to note that no one expects Obama to support or endorse anyone until an official nominee is named.
Democrats have a real problem on their hands. Almost all of the energy is in the Bernie wing of the party, but rank and file Democrats are bothered by the fact that Bernie isn’t even a party member.
The 2020 presidential election is a good way off and the pivotal 2018 midterms are this year, but it’s never too early for the regressive left to start griping about the 2020 Democrat frontrunner. Former Senator (D-DE) and former Vice President Joe Biden is the Democrat voters’ early pick to go...
The Democrats are desperate, aren’t they? Reports have surfaced the past few days that say liberals have started to pressure Democrats to use the removal of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) as a campaign point for the 2020 election.
I don’t know if I was the first to predict it, but I’m claiming the title of The First anyway.
In our January 1, 2018 Predictions post, I made the following 2018 predictions (emphasis added):
Joe Biden may not be an Al-Franken-level groper, and he’s certainly not a Harvey-Weinstein-level offender.
But his public displays of affection for women and girls during photo ops are widely viewed as creepy, in a touchy feely kind of way.

Several readers have emailed me an article in The Boston Globe, Elizabeth Warren’s Native American problem goes beyond politics. It’s worth a read, and *relatively* balanced for The Globe.
One of the readers wrote:
During Sunday’s Golden Globe awards, Oprah received the Cecil B. DeMille Award. Her acceptance speech has Democrats hopeful they too can have a celebrity gazillionaire candidate of their own this next presidential election cycle.
There are a few Democrats who think that since President Donald Trump won in November 2016 then maybe they can, too. After all, how did a man with no political experience beat the all mighty Hillary Clinton?!
So a handful of politicians that not a lot of people have heard of believe...
Democrats and many people in media mocked the GOP for having 17 candidates in the 2016 Republican primary. Now that the Clintons are out of the way however, Democrats are expected to have a massive field of candidates in 2020.
Amie Parnes writes at The Hill:
I don’t believe in coincidences, at least not when it comes to Elizabeth Warren.
I learned during her 2012 Senate run that everything was pre-programmed and scripted. She avoided impromptu encounters like the plague, including running from reporters to avoid hard questions.
California’s primaries are currently held in June; however, legislation is expected to be signed by Governor Jerry Brown (D) next week that would move them to March.
This move would place California’s primaries right after Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina. Further, the move would tilt the donor and electoral tables heavily...
During the 2012 Senate campaign between Scott Brown and Elizabeth Warren, I learned early on that The Boston Globe had Warren’s back, and used its full political sway to promote and defend her, particularly on Warren’s false claim to be Native American for employment purposes while climbing the law professor ladder to...
