Making it Official

Elizabeth Warren has made it official.  She is suspending her presidential campaign.  The move was inevitable after she got almost no delegates out of the 1200 picked on Tuesday.  Warren had no chance left for the nomination.  She was just going to continue to embarrass herself if she had stayed in the race.

I'm sorry to see her go.  I would have like to have seen Warren stay in.  There would be a certain joy to watch her come in third in state after state after state.  Warren deserves the total rejection of the Democrat party.

Remember, despite her phony Indian identity, Warren had pulled ahead in all the polls last fall.  Then she managed single-handedly to destroy her own credibility.  She came forward with a very detailed plan for Medicare for All.  When it got a lot of criticism, Warren just retreated.  She announced that the plan wouldn't go into effect for four years.  Then she pulled back further and said it was just a model for the future.  American saw that this was a woman who hadn't thought through her own plan.  She just took a political stab and then ran away when her mistake was uncovered.

Still, all things considered, it will be nice not to have to see or hear from Warren after today.
