WASHINGTON – Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid has been actively reviewing Massachusetts rules for filling a US Senate vacancy, another indication of the seriousness with which Democrats are gaming out the possibility of Elizabeth Warren joining likely presidential nominee Hillary Clinton’s ticket.
The upshot of Reid’s review is that Senate Democrats may have found an avenue to block or at least narrow GOP Governor Charlie Baker’s ability to name a temporary replacement and prevent the Senate from flipping to a Democratic majority if Warren were to leave the chamber. That suggests the issue is not as significant an obstacle as Reid previously feared.
Pieces of the legal guidance given to Reid were shared with the Globe by a person close to Reid who is familiar with the guidance.
“Reid sees a number of promising paths to making sure that Democrats keep Warren’s seat and is very open to her being selected,” said this person, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal deliberations.
Warren is a frequently mentioned figure in the capital’s fevered vice presidential speculation. Clinton’s campaign, while not explictly confirming that Warren is under consideration, has said its list of finalists for the pick will include at least one woman.

This bitch has the most slappable face of any politician
Gas the kikes race war now.
A two-woman democratic ticket? Might as well roll out the red carpet for trump
>>76170331
Women are at least 50% of the population and actually have higher turnout than men. I wouldn't count out that ticket if I were you.
>>76170135
If Warren becomes VP, I'll vote Hilldog.
If she doesn't, it's going to Johnson.
#NeverTrump
#RidingtheJohnson
>>76170404
Many women are catty and don't support other women, and other women don't believe that women should be in charge.
>>76170419
I don't trust her to be open borders and anti gun enough for me, I'm sucking the Johnson.

(You).
>>76170473
r/theredpill arguments aren't good enough, Anon.
>>76170404
Many women must prefer the male-in-charge paradigm. The strong woman business is a little sickening
This would get a lot of the Bernie voters that would otherwise never vote for Clinton and vote third party, Trump or abstain instead. Warren is also a Democratic Socialist, also wants single payer universal healthcare, free tuition etc like Bernie and in fact is probably the closest to his ideology and message out of any elected US politician. It's the one move that Clinton could make to court Bernie supporters at this point desu.
>>76170135
This is legitimately horrifying.
Warren's got folk-hero status on the left, even amongst the Bernouts.
If Warren runs as VP it's officially over.
Nice knowing you guys
>>76170135
Can we finally just gas every kike? Please?
>>76170579
What about the fact they don't vote for women automatically or they would of got Hillary elected the first time
kek prove me wrong.
>>76170628
You mean lies about her race Elizabeth
wew lad
>>76170135
Hilarshit says she will have 50/50 administration, Press and VP will be both women. Another lie for the list.
>>76170628
Since when and for what? I had never, ever heard her name until she started sperging out this year.
>>76170774
That shit never stuck anyway. She may be a liar but not nearly to the degree that Hillary is.
Anyway, the left is consolidating against what it sees as an unprecedented menace in the figure of Trump
>>76170135
>Warren is Clinton's Trump card
Lol...
#WriteInWarren
>>76170888
Luckily. I was worried we would be stuck with Trump there for a couple weeks.
>>76170865
Warren is a staunch advocate for progressive values in the Senate, and in the banking committee specifically. The left loves her because she takes the regulators to task every chance she gets, and supports legislation that progressives love.
>>76170865
She's hot shit lately, I can't even remember why but I know a fuckton of leftist boomers are all the way up her ass.
Also, this ticket will probably lock in ~70% of the female vote.
Fuck
>>76170888
>>76170957
Yea adding another women who has nothing to say and no new material is going to save Hillary from what's coming....kek
>>76171028
Why is she hot m8
explain what she did recently show me your sources because I know trump just called her the fuck out on live tv and no one called him on it because it was all true.
>>76171052
Cap it if you want to, breh.
I'm praying to all the most ancient gods that anything will prevent this from happening.
>>76171052
>nothing to say and no new material
Just because you make a claim doesn't mean that it's true. If there is a leading voice in the modern progressive movement, it's Senator Warren. Bernie wouldn't have even gotten off the starting line if Warren hadn't passed up the opportunity to run for the Dem nomination herself. She probably could have beaten Clinton as well. Warren is a strong messenger for progressive values, and she will help rally the base for November if picked as runningmate.

They need no evidence; mere implications are weapons of war in this race (as we have all seen)
The very fact that she's a woman who is *significantly* more in-vogue with the left is a killing stroke.
Trust me, I don't like it any more than you do. But watch how this shakes out
>>76171028
Hillary is going to win, her VP doesn't matter tbqh. Bernie will unite and campaign with her end of story. Don't be concerned she's got it in the bag.
>>76171144
What message what values m8
what of those messages and values do American care about based on polling?
all the lefts battles are over hence they lost the claim to counter culture and the youth and thus their future. Go ahead and post what she wants to do and we will see how petty and sad your understanding of Americans today is. I will wait.

Yea m8 and it was the last gasp of your movement and why your hitting the bottom of the barrel with letting trannys in little girls locker rooms. Your shit is done and has zero traction with the electorate polling who even liberals are showing the largest interest is in the economy.
I don't think you understand the stakes you all forced through legislation that is making every one else sour and why your losing so much so the score is if you all lose the presidency you will have zero power in any branch
THIS IS REALITY
>>76171683
>All this delusion
holy shit dude you really believe this junk don't you? If anything, the modern progressive movement is just getting started. Look at the polling for people 35 and under. The future of this country is progressive with a capital P. If you really think that our movement is on our "last gasp," then you've got a rude awakening in store for you sooner rather than later.
>>76171365

What is the next movement m8
YOU ALL HAVE NOTHING LEFT
in the same year your talking a record ousting of liberals took place in the midterms and now left you all in a position where you HAVE TO WIN THE PRESIDENCY or will zero branches lol
that is a dying movement.
>>76171761
no m8 the liberal left is over with the youth because you became to pervasive and lost the claim to counter culture its not fun and never was for your parents to have the same opinion as not only you but your favorite rapper who then shares it with your teacher and news anchor lol
its not cool to be a victim anymore.
>>76171857
>YOU ALL HAVE NOTHING LEFT
Nonsense.
We have:
- Campaign finance reform
- Strengthening wall street regulations
- Taking action on climate change
- Protecting and advancing net neutrality
- Increasing the federal minimum wage
- Debt-free college education
All of which are significant issues on the progressive agenda, which still require a lot of work to be done, and are extremely popular with the national electorate.
>>76172035
None of those are important to the electorate in any state polled m8
kek are you trying?

Nigger yes they are. You haven't even seen a single fucking poll if you don't think campaign finance reform, wall street regulations, climate change, and the minimum wage are popular positions.

The only triggered one is you. So triggered, in fact, that you responded to the same post twice - probably desperate to try to explain away what I'm saying.
>>76170135
I hope Elizabeth Warren does become the VP nominee
That almost assures a Trump victory
Elizabeth Warren is way too liberal for the vast majority of Americans to accept her
>>76172035
>the progressive agenda
Less than 40% of the country identifies as "Liberal." Of those, fewer than half identify as "Progressive."
The largest demographic in this country are Independents who are put off by both the Left's Socialist bullshit and the Right's religious nutjobs.
They literally DO NOT CARE about any of your Socialist crap, they just want to be left alone, but also tend to dislike morality legislation. You retards are banking on the wrong horse.
It's amazing. The notion that actually appealing to what the public cares about is a good way to win elections has just left the Liberal dialogue entirely.
>>76172166
Sorry m8 none are even listed m8 did you watch the fucking primaries?
the economy is the number one issue for not sides this election.
Your party is over it lost the claim to counter culture m8 I am sorry that is why you HAVE To win the presidency or you have no other branches left
>>76172248
sorry m8 your blown out and now are desperate to attack me lol your done
>>76172353

>>76170135
The VP does shit. Clinton and Reid play for the same team (the banks), whereas Warren has always been a voice of dissent.
I believe Clinton really is a moderate Republican in that by accepting Billions in donations she in affect will continue the status quo which aligns her to the GOP- a party with strong roots in placating to corporate America.
Most Democrats know this and this is why she has constantly lost state after state. The Democratic voter sides against Privatization and Coroporate tax breaks, which Clinton and the GOP represent- all which Warren hates.
By selecting Warren it completes two victories by Clinton. It makes her more of a fighter for individual or corporate interests. And removes a dissenter in Warren from the powerful Weighs and Means council which could make Clinton look bad when she approves TPP and TPIP on America- both which Warren is against

Progressive issues are generally very popular with the electorate. When they go on the ballot, they pass. It's really that simple. You can deny it all you want, but the left has the right idea, and it's only going to become more obvious as old people die and millennials start voting in greater numbers as they age.

sorry m8 your sample size will not cut it no matter who takes the results Furthermore these are no way electorate polling based on this years primaries all showing jobs and the economy as the main issue across the board
your done.
>>76172694
It shows up in the BALLOT VOTING RESULTS, you numbskull. Progressive initiatives WIN. Progressive candidates sometimes win, sometimes lose. There's a lot more to electing a particular candidate than the issues, but when an issue itself is voting on directly, then the result tends to be that progressive issues pass. It can't get any more clear than that.
Right now there is a huge divide among the electorate between progressive millennials and more moderate and/or older people. As those older people die off, and more millennials start voting (a common consequence of aging,) we will see that these issues and candidates will only become more popular.
>>76170607
I agree that this helps grab some of the Bernie voters, but really this would only help gain votes in the already blue northeast

Again you can claim your small victories all your want it lead to you party being in a position where they lose all branches is they don't win the presidency lol

Okay, pal, you have contributed literally nothing to this discussion except to cover your ears and yell "la la la la I can't hear you". Believe it or not, repeating the same thing over and over again does not make it true, nor is it evidence that supports your claims. In this case, it's clear that I am not getting anywhere with you. You can continue to think what you want, and we will see who is correct within the next 12-24 years.

Nice narrative, but I'm looking for hard data to support the claim. Your narrative is not evidence of anything.
>>76173507
It's true that the Democratic party has not been doing so well across the country, but it's not because of the issues. In fact, the entire Democratic strategy over DWS's time as DNC chair has been to run away from the issues and away from our President, and that strategy has resulted in what we have today.
Right now, the Democrats have the advantage in November, both for the white house and for the Senate. Yes, if they lose, then they're in deep doo-doo. But they're not in a position where they're going to lose, so it's pretty much a moot point.
Most likely, next year, we will have another Democratic President and a Democratic Senate.
Not gonna happen she loathes clinton.
>>76173662
You should reread what you just wrote because it is simply you saying your not going to lose with no precedent or evidence to suggest this as a inevitability lol
this is the definition of self delusion and using it to deflect something you legitimately admit is a problem is all the more fun for me.
if TRENDS continue you all wont have a single branch by November
>>76173810
It's pretty common knowledge that the situation in the electoral college, and the matter of which party has the most Senate seats to defend in unfavorable territory, but point to a democratic advantage in November. The GOP is primed to lose the Senate, barring some sort of complete collapse, and the electoral math still looks better for the Dems than it does for the Republicans. If you think Trump is the candidate who can overcome that, then you're welcome to think so. But there is no evidence to support it, and the electoral map still shows an advantage for the Dems. If you don't even know that, then you haven't been paying attention.
Ultimately, one of us has been backing up his claims with polling data and with knowledge that is agreed on by pretty much anyone who pays attention to U.S. politics, and the other has not backed up his claims with anything except "Because I said so"
>>76172308
The only way we win is if Democrats remain lax and stay home in November. Every libfag in the country is going to GOTV if she's on the ticket. Fortunately, I think Hill has too much pride to pick either Warren or Bernie as VP. She wants someone from her own inner circle. Warren would keep her honest, and I don't think she wants that kind of heat.
>>76173662
do you honestly believe public opinion of leftists isn't changing? look all around, the lefts "hip" factor is dying with such quickness it makes my head spin, now people associate progressives with mob violence, batshit insane feminists, numales and complete psychopaths

There is absolutely zero evidence that this is the case. Clinton is a clear favorite in Pennsylvania, which hasn't gone red since 1988, and both candidates are within the margin of error in Ohio. This is purely wishful thinking with no data to back it up.
>its not like Hillary is literally single points ahead in June and has nothing left to attack trump with is reality lol
Hillary is still dealing with an insurgency from her left, while Trump is currently consolidating his support in the GOP. That means, yes, it will look like a very close contest for a little while yet. The point is that this is a temporary state. The same thing has happened in many other presidential elections, and you would know this if you had paid attention. Clearly, you didn't, and still are not.
>The senate is majority GOP you dumb fuck
I suggest going back and reading my post again. The GOP is about to lose the Senate. They have more seats in danger than the Dems, enough to cost them the Senate, and this has been known for a few years now. Nothing has changed in that regard.
>face it you are repeating your parties last hold out resources lol the fact is the trends are not on your side and no one cares about the part of kaitlyn jenner being a women and men in little girls locker rooms
This is a nice rant and all, but it still doesn't have anything to back it up. At this point you are just lying to yourself, and it's pretty sad to see.

She successfully manifests all of Hillary's flaws and unappealing qualities (sans high treason, of course) whilst also being even more of a Bolshevik. Trump is going to beat the 1/128th Injun out of her.

>>76174720
Honestly, it seems to me like this is just your first Presidential election. You don't appear to have any historical context informing your opinions and your assumptions about what is going to happen next.
Clinton has led in 7 of the last 9 polls in Pennsylvania, and Trump is not going to get any closer than he is right now. That's what you don't seem to get. Trump is at a high point in the general election right now. It's only going to go downhill for him from here as the left rallies behind Clinton's candidacy.
The bump you're seeing in Trump's polling numbers is fool's gold. Watch and learn, kiddo. :o)
>>76170419
>Voting for globalism
>Voting against nationalism
You know you can just move...
I like Warren and Trump. Warren has done some good work in the Senate, especially throwing shade on regulators and anything related to banking. However, she voted no on Rand's Federal Reserve Transparency Act which would've audited the Fed. Other negatives are that she's from a shitty ass flyover state, has an annoying hokey accent and of course the whole Native American thing. I voted for her in '12 and would vote for her again. Nonetheless, I'll be voting for Trump this year with no cognitive dissonance. He's better on issues I care more about.
>>76172510
Which is why Warren will HOPEFULLY reject a VP ticket slot.
She can do more to fight the banks right where she is.

>>76170865
I don't get it either. She's done nothing, literally nothing as senator. And she's going to be our next VP? Liberals are subhuman.
elizabeth warren is all talk, no action. she rode a staunch anti-wall street anti-corporatism anti-big money ticket right into senate and proceeded to accomplish nothing except voting against auditing the fed. and now she's basically outing herself as a goldman sachs puppet. too fucking easy for trump to tear apart. she's a loudmouthed fake indian and fake progressive.
