Where will Elizabeth Warren's Support Go?

[Nasty Jack]

The groups behind the six months effort to draft Elizabeth Warren for President have folded their tent. The “Run Warren Run” campaign backed by Democracy for America (DFA) and MoveOn.org have decided to suspend efforts. The question arises, since Warren is definitely a Progressive, will these two organizations shift their support to Bernie Sanders? DFA endorsed him for the Senate in Vermont in 2006. MoveOn.org is being urged to back him after exiting Warren. However, DFA Executive Director Charles Chamberlain said, “We still think there’s plenty of time for Sen. Warren to change her mind,” and indicated they would stick with Warren for now. MoveOn has been looking at petitions to back Sen. Sanders for some time. Here's a map reflecting primary schedules for 2016, with seven months to go in 2015. It would seem that if Warren secretly harbors any plans to run, she would want to make that decision by the end of the month but stranger things have happened in politics. DFA and MoveOn may be reluctant to back a dark horse like Bernie Sanders but before they decide not they should look at some of the crowds he is attracting at speaking engagements around the country.

1. The only logical choice for those drawn to Warren by

policy and authenticity would be Senator Sanders.

2. I agree, I don't see Clinton getting a lot of Warren's support

Some may fragment off to O'Malley until such time he leaves the race, then I would assume he'll endorse Clinton.

3. I assume

O'Malley's role is intended as a spoiler to Sanders candidacy. I'm not real familiar with him, but I suspect he is ideologically closer to Hillary than to Bernie....that's just a guess though. Bernie's my candidate at any rate.
