Opinion: Give Elizabeth Warren credit where it’s due, JRubinBlogger writes
Sen. Elizabeth Warren speaks at a Service Employees International Union forum on labor issues on Saturday in Las Vegas. By Jennifer Rubin Jennifer Rubin Opinion writer covering politics and policy, foreign and domestic Email Bio Follow Opinion writer May 1 at 11:00 AM The coverage of Sen. Elizabeth Warren has gone something like this: She blew it with the DNA test, showing that she couldn’t successfully spar with President Trump . She isn’t very likable .
As I’ve argued, by any objective measure Warren is a stronger standard-bearer for the left than Sanders and has fewer weaknesses. She is younger and has more ideas than Sanders does, doesn’t call herself a socialist and has been connecting with nonwhite voters. In CNN’s latest poll, the top three are Biden , Sanders and Warren . In the Quinnipiac poll, the order is Biden , Warren and Sanders . Finally, the Morning Consult poll has it as Biden , Sanders and Warren .
Now, keep in mind that Warren, like the rest of the contenders, is presently getting lapped by Biden. She very well might lose . However, her experience suggests that candidates should work hard , ignore media coverage, present their vision to voters, wow primary-goers with specificity and be a happy warrior. At least for Warren, that formula is paying off.
