She's basically Bernie without the baggage (is a woman, not as old, not Jewish, not openly a socialist, somewhat more palatable to the establishment). Personally I'd be supporting her enthusiastically and I imagine she'd be neck and neck with Hillary at the least.

LOL, "about the same" is the least voted option. Tongue

But that's where I am. Indeed, Bernie has run an almost flawless campaign so far, and though Warren might have gained more establishment support and neutralized the "I'm a woman!!!!!!!!!" argument, I'm not sure that would have amounted to much in the end. And Bernie has a passion and genuineness that few politicians can convey.

Probably about the same. She'd be appealing to the same demographic, though I suppose she wouldn't get the "Berniebros"

What? Have you heard the recent statements from Albright and Steinem? Not to mention all the times she's brought it up directly in debates and such.

Also, you used to hate Hillary waaaaaay more than I do (which I don't, I just don't think she's the candidate the Democrats need right now). What the hell happened to you?

He was put off by the deranged, sexist Berniebros constantly attacking her, I believe.

Oh, come on now. Yes, the internet is full of sexist pieces of sh*ts and I'm sure there are plenty in the Bernie campaign - just like you'll find plenty of them in every Republican candidate's campaign, and yes, even in Hillary's! Anyone remember this? Or how one of the Hillary bros on this very forum had a banner that read "Bill Clinton for first lady"? Or how Gloria Friggin' Steinem just basically called the young women who supported Bernie sluts? Oh, but since they all support Hillary, it's totally OK...

This caricature of Bernie's supporters is getting utterly ridiculous. If you have a substantive argument for why you think Hillary would be better, just make that argument. Stop throwing baseless ad hominems at an entire campaign based on a few clowns.

Warren would have this thing so sewn up it would not be funny. And she would be wicked hard for the Republicans to beat in November. Being Bernie without being a "socialist" is a tough thing to beat in a 2016 general.

Oh, we have substantive arguments too. Bernie Sanders has no idea what he's talking about on foreign policy, to an almost embarrassing degree, and his domestic policy is poorly thought-out garbage that doesn't withstand even the slightest scrutiny. But it sounds so fun to entitled college children who have never paid a bill in their life, so hooray!

Also I'm not really sure what is sexist about a "Bottom for Hillary" T-Shirt? Huh

Probably not as well. I don't think she would have gone around promising free stuff, which is part of the reason why Sanders is doing so well.

Then why do you Hillaryhacks spend 90% of your energy spewing baseless ad hominems against Bernie supporters, instead of actually bringing up these points? I'd be happy to discuss each candidate on their respective merits. In fact I've had a pretty interesting and substantive argument with Frodo in another thread. It would be easier if you guys weren't so obsessive.

Because it reduces a female public figure to a sex object, as patriarchy always does. Have you ever seen female supporters of a male candidate make t-shirts about how they want to f**k the guy they support?

Well when there are no jobs that pay more than $10, you CAN'T pay bills.

As to the t-shirt, I agree, it isn't sexist. Half the "sexist" stuff "Berniebros" say isn't sexist either though.

The BernieBros would have gone all out for O'Malley I guess.

I doubt it. Rand would've done a lot better though.
