Warren comes out swinging after South Carolina drubbing

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Elizabeth Warren responded to her fourth straight loss Saturday night by taking direct aim at her rivals — including Bernie Sanders.

“This crisis demands more than a senator who has good ideas, but whose 30-year track record shows he consistently calls for things he fails to get done, and consistently opposes things he nevertheless fails to stop,” Warren said in her toughest assessment of the Vermont senator during a speech in Houston Saturday night.

It wasn’t just Sanders — whom Warren and her team had largely avoided criticizing during the campaign — she went after. She unloaded on her opponents and argued they were not up to tackling the country's big problems.

Warren’s shift comes at a low point for her candidacy. She has not placed first or second in any of the four contests before next week’s Super Tuesday.

1. Well, she's right about Sanders.

Sanders has never managed to build a coalition in Congress to back any of his major ideas, so why would anyone assume he'd be able to do so as president?

[Bayard]

2. I really like Warren

I hate to see her drop out, but along with Amy and Pete, it looks inevitable.

She would be a WONDERFUL Secretary of Education!

3. Sadly, too late.

She needed to be calling out Bernie on his bullshit a couple months ago. Now it's too late.

6. It is too late for her. And for the rest of them.

It’s Sanders Vs Biden now.

[Happy Hoosier]

7. Yup. It's why I switched. Are you gonna?

I notice you still have Amy as your pick.

[squirecam]

8. I already voted for Amy in Nevada.

So my vote no longer matters.

My pick here will remain Amy until she drops out.

[Happy Hoosier]

9. Okay. Thanks! NT

16. Unless Sanders or Biden deciudes to join reality

and be realistic about life expectancy and the need for real contrast in the GE and decides to ask their delegates to vote for her. My fantasy scenario.

11. I agree. Liz should have came out swinging from the start, but she would have been labeled. n/t

[Blue_true]

15. She was labeled anyway. nt

[Vivienne235729]

12. Exactly. I don't know why she didn't attack Bernie a couple months ago

She would have been seen as a much tougher candidate than just reacting to losses. I don't know what happened to her campaign but in the last month, it sure got bad advice.

[LizBeth]

4. Warren is right. She was an opportunity for the nation to get what we are asking for.

For a lot of reasons, she didn't get there for the detriment of the nation. Warren is easily the strongest candidate.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

5. Hoping Tuesday gives her a boost.

She has a lot of talent and knowledge. The more people learn, the more they like her.

[Nikki28]

10. I hope they fight like

hell because I do not see how a few primaries should be the end.I voted for bloomberg and wanted to know when the GE comes around, do I vote again or if I want to change my preference. I never voted for every voting except now.I still hope any of the four left be on the VP list of they do drop out.We need a woman or Pete on the ticket if either woman or Bloomberg,Pete do not get the nom.

[DanTex]

13. Last time she attacked Bernie, she dropped in polls, and Bernie surged.

Not sure why she thinks repeating the same action is going to lead to different results.

[ehrnst]

14. Bernie attacking her certainly didn't win any of her supporters to her side.

Neither did trying to deny it....

Sanders camp admits anti-Warren script was deployed in multiple early states

Sanders initially attributed the talking points to rogue staffers, and supporters launched an online campaign to convince people the document was fake.

Calling someone a liar doesn't win friends and influence people either.
