It took The Daily Kos<\/em> to figure this out in the article Huh, so it IS a coordinated Wall Street Democrat campaign<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hmmm, so far today we’ve seen that Third Way op-ed in the Wall Street Journal and Sen. Chuck Schumer’s comparing us to the teabaggers.<\/p>\n

Then there is DLC dinosaur Al From with a new book and rhetorical embrace of Hillary Clinton, unreconstructed racist Richard Cohen’s blasting of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, and Fox News “Democrats” Doug Schoen and Pat Caddell in Politico are back for another stab at that whole “radical center” nonsense.<\/p>\n

One or two of these would be random noise. All of this, all at once? It’s a coordinated counterattack by Wall Street Democrats spooked by the party’s embrace of politicians like Elizabeth Warren, Sherrod Brown, Tammy Baldwin and Jeff Merkley. The future of the Democratic Party is a populist one, all that’s left is for time to whittle out the dead weight.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I was sorry to see Elizabeth Warren pledge to serve out her term as Senator from Massachusetts, and vow not to run for President in 2016.\u00a0 See the The Boston Globe<\/em> article Warren rejects buzz, insists she\u2019s not seeking presidency<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Even Warren\u2019s denial on Wednesday is unlikely to squelch the interest, especially if there is any hint that Clinton is wavering or stumbling. Democrats say there would be intense pressure on Warren to run if Clinton declines.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Perhaps the assault on Elizabeth Warren by the so-called Democrats will goad her into running for President.\u00a0 If Hillary Clinton doesn’t repent, you’d better believe that I will join any effort to encourage Warren to run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
