to attract the "white male working class" voter?

This is the bedrock of the Republican base! This is all they have left, and it isn't enough anymore!

Bernie didn't win them over. Obama never won them.

Hillary has all the demographics she needs, and if the M$M now turns against Trump - as they appear to be - it's over.

Elizabeth Warren is our 'progressive' rock star! If she were unleashed as the voice of our Democratic economic policies regarding Wall Street and income inequality - with a national bully pulpit! - WOW!

With this choice, Hillary could cement her commitment and trust on these issues that have dogged her in this campaign. If Elizabeth signed on, what a message - both ways!

Not this Clinton supporter, at least. Her primary neutrality was cowardice. BobbyDrake Jun 2016 #4

It's interesting that men are more accepting than women about the idea of electing two women. Koinos Jun 2016 #9

It's not a matter of being less accepting of the idea. athena Jun 2016 #20

Not sure how accurate the Bloomberg poll is about that discrepancy between men's and women's views. Koinos Jun 2016 #22
