After a good FOX News smear campaign her to define her early and ineffectual grassroots campaign that gets no big donor support on Wall Street, I'd say 40% favorable/59% unfavorable.

I think Warren is exactly the type of candidate prime for a well-done smear campaign.

I think people would be pretty evenly divided,so probably somewhere around 49-50

Uh, the woman who claimed to have Native American descent which was never proven? Yes, I hope she will be scrutinized. It's not as if she didn't run a smear campaign against Scott Brown. Democrats who are criticizing Hillary for her lies or her past and then support Warren are really ignorant.

To answer the question: Probably 48-50 unfavorable.

You mean the issue that literally no one outside of GOP partisan hacks cares about anymore? The issue that is pretty well defused by the fact that Warren was a competent professor skilled in her chosen field? The issue that Scott Brown supporters used to call Warren Fauxahontas and other racial stereotypes, when Warren wasn't even the one bringing the issue up?

That issue?

45-55 Unfavorable. Which means she'd probably lose, but I suspect by closer than most Atlas-ers imagine.

Listen, it is an issue. She DECIDED to make it an issue and used her "Native American heritage" which really never could be proven to her political and professional advantage. If the media had scrutinized her the way it did Hillary, she wouldn't be that popular among Dems who seek an alternative to Hillary. If Hillary's "dead broke" comment was (or still is) an issue, than this one should be an even bigger issue.

Did she? I can't tell if she used it as an actual issue or not in her campaign since the Scott Brown campaign made such a big deal of it in a horribly racist way. But my point is that in the actual situation where she MIGHT have gotten an advantage, being a college professor, she seems to have not relied on that and used her teaching skills instead.

Again, NOBODY CARES ABOUT IT ANYMORE except for rabid partisan hacks. She doesn't bring it up anymore, her supporters don't, the colleges don't (even though they could stand to benefit by discrediting someone who's pushing for student debt issues), anti-Warren Dems don't, nobody cares other than Scott Brown and his supporters.

It isn't an issue, at all. It was only made an issue by a desperate Republican campaign that tried to use what at worst was just an attempt to boost a resume to beat Warren.
