FAR more lucrative on Wall Street. Why make enemies ahead of time and mess up your prospects?

... Nobody, and I mean nobody, tells Senator Warren what she can and cannot say in the US Senate. I knew she would hit the ground running. I hope I can catch that on C-Span on the overnight replays. Thanks for posting kairos...

She won't be screwing around. Warren is going to make the next six years the most unpleasant Wall Street has known since the Roosevelt administration, and I mean the administration of Theodore Roosevelt!

Mark my words: Elizabeth Warren will one day be President of this country.
