I've waited a few days to comment on the exit of Senator Warren on the presidential campaign. So my five observations:
1. Maybe talented at debates....her campaign never caught on 'fire', and it limped along for the most part from spring of 2019 to this past week.
2. Once you went and looked at the Indian heritage chatter...that basically went on for three decades, you come to realize that she used to gimmick to get a 'step-up' at every stage. You could call it a fraud or just useful fake, but it worked for the most part.
3. Her hope of convincing not only Democrats of her ability, but independents? It never connected to the common guy/gal....the working-class person. Among blacks or Latinos? It was almost a zero.
4. As much as I hate to use the term.....the candidate often appeared like some college professor.
5. As each week went by in 2019....it seemed like Warren was the ideas-person, and you got a new idea each week. Maybe by design, or by personality....it doesn't matter because you eventually questioned each idea over cost or anticipated gain. That made her campaign drift around without any clear direction.
Running again in 2024? I kinda doubt it.
