Think about this - this year we have an opportunity to really make history.

Hell, I'm old and the last time there were 12 consecutive years of a Democratic Party President in this country, I wasn't even born. We need to make this even more significant by giving the next Democratic Party President at the least a Democratic Party Senate majority to work with. The thought of Elizabeth Warren as Senate majority leader is fascinating too.

I think she really wants the VP spot, like real bad. Explains her recent behavior anyway.
