Elizabeth Warren won’t say if Hillary Clinton is ‘too cozy’ with Wall Street
http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/elizabeth-warren-hillary-clinton-wall-streetFirst, she dodged questions last month from a local TV reporter on whether Clinton was the best choice for 2016. Hillary is terrific, is all Warren said in response. When the reporter asked the question, Warren paused before being pulled away by a supporter.
In an interview with Yahoo! News Katie Couric Wednesday, Warren took a similar tack when asked if she thought Clinton is too cozy with Wall Street.
You know, I worry a lot about the relationship between all of them: Regulators, government and Wall Street, Warren replied.
But what about Hillary Clinton in particular? Couric interjected.
Well, I worry across the board, Warren responded.

(135,425 posts)There haven't been any debates yet, and the field has not been sorted out, yet people are saying that Warren is "undermining" Clinton because she refuses to PUSH Clinton into a candidacy for which Clinton has not yet declared. The timeline for that is Clinton's, not Warren's, and Warren GETS THAT. So Warren, sensibly, stays quiet. She'll probably stay quiet during the debates, as well, because she'll be interested in inserting her perspective into the varying arguments. People will make something of that, no doubt. Never mind that she signed "that letter" that people don't want to remember.
Then, when they try to pin her down and try to make her badmouth HRC, and she refuses to do it, instead deflecting with a general answer, they make something of THAT, too.
That's some whack-a-doodle logic, there. But hey, it was probably written by Luke Russert, the clueless pimply pipsqueak who hates all those "old" women in Congress.
Love this bit:
Gee, did the rocket scientist dribbling this out ever stop to think she might be "running" for ... Fed Chair? Or maybe a cabinet post, like say, Treasury?
Oh, the huge manatee!
