My hopes of no one here taking Ed Klein seriously are ruined.

This.

And Elizabeth Warren won't run if Hillary does, and probably won't even if Hillary doesn't run.

That doesn't mean that the Kennedy family doesn't have the ability to direct massive fundraising efforts for the Dems.

And one of the claims made in the article is that Obama has also urged Warren to challenge Clinton.

I find this extremely hard to believe...

These.

Also OP, you should probably Google the guy that made the claim that Obama was encouraging Warren to run. Not everything you see on the internet is true.

This is also just not true. I can guarantee that Joe III will run for Senate in Massachusetts one day and, if things go well, possibly President some day.

Ted Jr. will be representing Connecticut in Washington at some point and on some level as well.

It's very difficult to get a family with that level of organization and donor support and now sheer size to go away.

Umm, yes.



They're a hell of a lot closer than Obama and Warren. The reason Warren's in the Senate right now is because Obama didn't nominate her to the CFPB, her brainchild.

As much as I wish it were true that particular tidbit of information (Obama urging Warren to run instead of Hillary) comes from some insane troll Ed Klein screed which has no credibility at all.
