Probably.  2 major issues sunk her:

1. Warren sounds like she is stuck in time loop in 2008.  Making gloomy rigged economy rhetoric the centerpiece of your campaign sounds out of touch today and is not going to beat Trump.  Sanders gets this to at least some degree and tends to give a net optimistic message about the future he wants to build.  Warren is all "everything is hopelessly set against you and only I have the knowledge/plan to save you."  This message works well in 2008 or 1932.  It doesn't work as well in normal times and it definitely doesn't work when unemployment is at a 50 year low.  It also sounds surprisingly elitist to many Dems.  

2. Going all in on Medicare For All and then committing to release that nonsensical plan to pay for it.
