warren's choice to wait until the primaries were done and then pick the winner was really rank opportunism. you expect that from the president. elizabeth warren is not the president. what it suggests is a lack of ideological conviction.
this is somebody that was a republican into her 40s, and switched parties because she thought democrats were better protectors of the "free market". she's then spent basically her entire career trying to turn the clocks back a hundred years, to a time before market theory was discredited across the spectrum. she's a fish out of water - the economic equivalent of a creationist looking for a university that hasn't drunk the kool-aid of evolutionary biology.
she's anything but progressive. she's lost in lala-land. clinton has her defects, but she's not going to appoint somebody lost in a bunch of long debunked, naive nineteenth century nonsense.

the reality is that she's widely seen as a crackpot.

warren's ideas about banks are something akin to resurrecting beta max and hd-dvd: they failed the first time, so let's try them again.
i know she has a big email list. but, there's a reason she's broadly seen as a fringe idiot in washington.
