24. Please, Sanders has as much of a chance of being elected president as I do.

May 2014

As for Warren, she has repeatedly said that she's not interested in running. Besides, she's currently polling in single digits. At this point in time the GOP is not worried about Liz Warren. Of course that could change, two years is a lifetime in politics.

If Rove and the rest of the RW clown car are going after Hillary is because she consistently outpolls everyone, and by a substantial margin. This is not 2008. It's unprecedented to mount such an extensive attack against a non-incumbent candidate who hasn't even announced whether she will run in 2016.

So no, they are not more worried about a Sanders or a Warren run.
