2 words....Elizabeth Warren

[jodymarie aimee]

would have wiped the floor with any Trump VP dope.

1. Kaine is a DAMN GOOD CHOICE, and he did fine in the debate. He trapped Pence in LIE upon LIE.

[RBInMaine]

2. Let's not re-hash this. It's a dead horse. Kaine did fine, and we have a GREAT ticket.

3. yawn

[BumRushDaShow]

4. Enough of the primary trolling.

[Demsrule86]

11. Exactly it offers an opportunity to criticise Hillary or her campaign.

They take all such opportunities. If there is a day filled with good news, the concerned search for the one story that is negative. Such folks should consider the horror that a Trump president would unleash...the primary is over. Leave it behind.

[BumRushDaShow]

12. And both Warren & Sanders have been an excellent surrogates

where both are in positions to actually help do something about what is going on... as long as we try to do our part to help retake the Senate.

[Demsrule86]

13. Yes they have. This has little to do with Sen. Sanders Sen. Warren. They have been fantastic.

And Sen. Warren would have been a fantastic VP...Bernie too. But Kaine is the better choice for the election. He comes from an important swing state. He is a good guy. This is just primary-flu...their guy lost. The primary is over folks.

[Orrex]

5. And the media would still call it a draw...

and they'd immediately poll "independent, undecided" voters who'd claim that Pence did better.

Same old, same old.

[BlueStater]

6. Well, she didn't.

And given that she'll be over 70 by the next election cycle, I sincerely doubt she ever will.

Too bad, so sad.

7. Primary is over.

[book_worm]

8. Another stupid post.

[BobbyDrake]

9. 2 more words: MOVE ON

Enough post-primary bitterness already.

[Joe941]

16. this.

[Demsrule86]

10. Yeah I thought some who were complaining about Kaine thought that way.

Wrong, VP debates are meaningless. Kaine is from Virginia which is huge for us and he is a good guy-popular in his state. And I don't believe two women would have worked ...and I am a woman. We have those liberals who are not primary obsessed...and Warren would not have added to that tally in my opinion...so appealing to swing voters and yes some Republicans this year is also helping us. Kaine is perfect for this job. Kaine did fine...he did his job. Pence lied through his teeth and will face some negative press and ads for this. Overall, the debate was fine and Kaine is a good choice.

14. nothing bitter or traitorous about my post

Warren would win a debate with anyone in this country, esp a Trump lackey. All I was saying. And yes, I know how old she is. You guys are so thin-skinned. Toughen up. We are on the same team. We don't eat our own. Emulate our candidate Hillary Clinton.

[JTFrog]

18. Don't keep fighting the primary battle.

Please do emulate Hillary. I don't see her out there saying this crap.

Please delete this divisive nonsense.

[ecstatic]

20. I've never seen a debate with Warren. Have you?

I'll google it if time ever permits, but debates and speeches are two different things.

15. P.S.

23. The irony in your post...

You are sure that you know precisely that Warren "would have wiped the floor with any Tump VP dope."

Senator Warren is a great senator and an amazing speaker with a lot of passion for her issues of economic justice. She is doing and will continue to do her part to fight for the economically disadvantaged. My question is, "Why did you feel it necessary to make your statement in the first place since Warren is not in any position to debate the VP?"

A lot of people here are criticizing and casting aspersions, but I am genuinely curious as to what your motivation was to make the statement given the reality of the current race.

Care to answer?

17. We will never know

[SaschaHM]

19. I love Elizabeth Warren, but...

Can we stop pretending that she's some infallible goddess who would have the desired outcome in "X" situation had she been there? Pence was operating as if the facts didn't matter and that would be a tough situation for anyone, including Senator Warren.

[JCMach1]

21. Exactly, as much as I like her (for example) her DNC performance was lackluster

... even a bit shaky.

I have no doubt she is a good debater.

However, Kaine did exactly what needed to be done. He won on substance and setup Hillary for Sunday night.

With the Hurricane, this debate is old news in the next 12 hrs.

[Expecting Rain]

22. Tragically missed opportunity IMO

Elizabeth Warren would have electrified the campaign (and wiped the floor with Pense).

I've tried to warm to Kaine. Hasn't worked.
