Elizabeth Warren Eyed as Potential 2016 Presidential Candidate
In case Hillary Clinton isn't left enough
Could Sen. Elizabeth Warren run for president in 2016?
The New Republic makes the case for the liberal Massachusetts Democrat as a potential rival to presumed front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton in their latest cover story.
Casting her as "the probable face of the insurgency," TNR makes the case for Warren as a populist candidate up against Clinton who is perceived as more friendly to Wall Street.

Team Red would jump for joy I suspect.
“the probable face of the insurgency,”?????
And the TEA Party is perceived as extreme?
Because she’s been such a successful Senator with loads of proposed reform bills and compromising with the opposition to balance the budget and ensure that government programs are solvent for the future.
Oh wait…
my left nut has more Indian blood than she does
Millions of women will vote for a woman Presidential candidate. Not because of her political views, but simply because she is a woman. Of course not all women will vote for a woman just because she is a woman, but more millions will. However, I still prefer this woman over the Clintons.
