Elizabeth Warren out of race

[Rev. Rye]

Was never too keen on her. I agree she seemed like Hillary Version 2. Used to be a diehard conservative and now is trying to convince us she's this ultra-liberal Dem. Which could be true - people can change their minds on issues, and that's fine. But it just rubs me the wrong way. I was most impressed about the fact that she wanted to abolish the Electoral College, though I'm not sure how much she actually talked about it publicly, mostly because I don't pay any attention to the debates, which are just opportunities to create soundbites for the talking heads to criticize and ramble on about for weeks and weeks until something new happens.

So yeah, I won't miss her. Hopefully she does the right thing and endorses Sanders.

Given that her policies tended to square pretty quickly with Bernie’s, she probably will. And that was probably one of her biggest flaws: the only things that made her different from Bernie were her Female Cred and her past as a conservative. The former wasn’t enough to differentiate her as a politician and the latter shone through on occasion and helped sway the rest to Bernie.
