Democrat Presidential Nominee

The first also-ran has announced...

Elizabeth Warren will raise a lot more campaign dollars than she deserves only to bow out after finishing middle to bottom of the pack in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Try the bottom.Like all converts from the opposite side of an ideology(Warren was a registered Republican until the mid 90's),she comes off as too serious and humorless;not much of a light touch there.I'm not sure she connects that great with the average voter although her background is something that many could identify with.She'd make a good VP candidate if the Democrats can manage to nominate someone from the center for the top position.

The only bright spot in possibly facing Trump was that her speciality when she taught law school was bankruptcy law.

She's just a terrible candidate in general.

Unlikable, coastal elite, resting bitch face, nerdy, former academia...

Checks all the wrong boxes.

All that and she is still a step up from Hillary.

True... Hillary had all of those plus baggage...

2016 was probably her best chance if we're being honest.

If Fauxcahontas adorned herself in full Indian regalia, I think she'd stand an excellent chance of capturing a large majority of native American votes.

If she did all that, she still would lose to CUSTER!

None of that matters. The presidency has become a personality contest, and Warren doesn't have a personality.

And in that outfit, she'd be a shoo-in for the all-female rework of the Village People as the Indian.

If she would win the Democratic nominee, you would be the first in line to donate and go door to door soliciting for her.
