Just because her words bust your worldview bubble doesn't mean she's not a strong, positive progressive voice.
First, there's no worldview bubble popping here. She comes across as your standard, deluded liberal. That's fine, and if that makes her a "strong, progressive voice," it means that the "progressive" movement is worse off than I thought.
I don't have time to read every attack piece.
Translation: Being informed takes too much work!
And what exactly is the popularity of the Republican Party in Massachusetts?
Irrelevant to this. Obama is not running against the Republican Party. Scott Brown has been among the most popular politicians in the state.
Warren is a vocal progressive, and doesn't seem ashamed to admit it, so she shouldn't have to worry about that.
She has to worry that what she says is so detached from reality. That's not going to help her in a race.
"Generic Republican" isn't running for office.
Then perhaps you should stop worrying about the popularity of Republicans.
You don't. I've seen no evidence that you possess even the most basic knowledge of economics. I only have 1 1/2 economics classes under my belt and I may even have more knowledge of economics as a discipline than you do. You read a bunch of articles by Ben Stein, and maybe a couple books by Adam Smith, and now you think you're some sort of economic genius.
Ooh, wow, you got me there. Sick burn, etc. Do you really want to compare academic penis length? I don't think so.
