Too bad.
On the other hand, I’m feeling the Tulsimentum.

Good. Now stop playing nice with Grandpa Crankypants, and kill off his zombie campaign before it infects the country any further.

The next few days should be interesting to see where and how she lands.

Sorry to see you go Liz! By far, you would have made the best president.

I think her supporters will split between Biden & BS. Actually I think she’d make a great VP with Biden.

She was my first choice in 16 - sorry she didn’t run. She was my first choice this time around as well.

I am very sad to hear this, but not surprised. She was my favorite candidate, but this race seems destined to come down to gladiator combat between elderly white males.

I hope you’re not basing your opinion on her campaign strategy because she didn’t appear to have any.

Now she needs to make the next president better and more impactful than he would otherwise be. Her position in the Senate could be the best place from which to do that.

Probably for the best. Put one of the Democrats in the Oval Office and swing the Senate to the Democrats and Warren becomes one of the most powerful people in the world. In a Senate not able to block her and one that would advance her ideas she’d be one hell of a lot more helpful than as a POTUS.

It is frequently disappointing that we in Maryland don’t get to vote for who we’d prefer but instead the least-worst option from whoever is leftover from earlier primaries.

There is a huge difference between running for president and being president.

This should bring an end to that hideous horse-race serial that the Washington Post has been running.

Sigh.

I really, really wanted her to be the nominee–I’m (still) persuaded that she was the best of the candidates: smart (in terms of both wonkiness and in thinking on her feet during debates) and–something Sanders just flat doesn’t seem interested in being or becoming–someone with Progressive bona fides who could, and did, Get Stuff Done.

But she can (and, I hope, will) serve as Biden’s, and the party’s, gadfly.
