(4,558 posts)Warren has been a Democrat for more than a year, and didn't join just so she could ride the party coat tails in a primary at the 11th hour.
She's proven to work with the machine of politics, rather than against it. I understand how the rebellious attitude of Sanders can be appealing, but when it come to practicality and actually getting things done.. not so much. I prefer someone who can get things done.. Sanders doesn't display that capability, Warren does.
I don't know your particular position on this, but many here have stated a large part of their reason for not supporting Clinton is because, back in the 60's she was a "goldwater girl". I always chuckle to myself when some of those same ones tout Warren, who was a Republican supporter through to the mid 90's (just to be clear, I personally, don't have an issue with that... people change). I fully expect that to all of a sudden become an "issue" for Sanders supporters should she end up endorsing Hillary. I've no doubt that will be the reason that she goes under the Sanders bus.
