So much to the apparent liking of some of DU's opinion leaders, Warren looks out

9. Whenever someone mentions anyone who is Not Hillary, we get told patronizingly that

oh, it is too early - although we are also regaled with Emily's List and other endorsements. Not too early for Hillary, evidently.
Warren, although a couple of years younger than Hillary, is also deemed too old.
Concentrate on 2014 - but oh yeah, Hillary already has people and money in place. A primary challenger should start soon! By now! But don't think about it until after 2014.

It is disheartening - we are to vote for the jersey with a D, even if the D stands for DINO, in the increasingly ridiculous hope that we will stop greasily sliding to the right.

Yes, name recognition is there for Hillary - but that does not mean the recognition is admiration. The GOP hatesss her, although hard sometimes to see why. She is divisive at this point, I feel. And electing anyone based on private parts is just making a mockery of the process. IMO as a woman who worked during the uber-sexist 60's and 70's and 80's.

Also want to mention that I believe most endorsements of politicians by other politicians is meaningless, because likely they know damn right well who they had better endorse. I don't care if Warren endorses Hillary, that does not mean I would vote for Hillary in a primary.
