I wish she never would have gone down this Sanders road..
Cory Booker didn't like Warren's "wine cave" attack on Buttigieg
Therein lies the risk that Booker identifies for the Democrats, that not only is very little gained from this line of attack, it also might embitter voters toward other candidates who fail the test. And as Independent Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders demonstrated Thursday night, that risk extends to Warren.
Seconds after Warren and Pete finished up, Sanders swooped in to boast that he is the only candidate up here that doesnt have any billionaire contributions, which includes Warren. Her current presidential campaign, not her old pre-pledge Senate campaign, has accepted donations at or near the $2800 individual contribution limit from at least six billionaires.

Do as I say - not as I did. She was 63 yrs old and doing this but a 37 yr old should "know better"?
