Warren is the Champion the Democratic Party Needs Right Now
It might be time for voters to give Sen. Elizabeth Warren another look.
“I’m not ready to go away.” — Sen. Elizabeth Warren
Another Democratic debate took place in Las Vegas this week. Being the real barn-burner it was, it is still top of mind as the Democratic field looks into next week and what this coming Tuesday’s debate might bring.
Mike Bloomberg, having strangely and rather suddenly moved solidly into Joe Biden’s center lane upon the many stumbles of the latter, did not exactly have a good night.
Or did he?
True, Bloomberg’s performance left a great deal to be desired. More than a few Democrats are still bitterly disappointed, as Bloomberg was starting to look like the Democratic establishment’s only way of keeping the nomination from falling to Sen. Bernie Sanders.
But Bloomberg also drew the fire of everyone onstage, which makes him look more like a front-runner than he was looking previously. The other candidates, naturally, weren’t taking to kindly to this view.
“We shouldn’t have to choose between one candidate who wants to burn this party down and another candidate who wants to buy this party out. We can do better.” — Pete Buttigieg
