If you have followed me for any length of time, you know that I\u2019m a big fan of Elizabeth Warren, the champion of every day Americans, who is not afraid of Banksters.  Yesterday evening I learned that Elizabeth Warren will indeed run for the Senate against Scott Brown (R-InsaniTEA).  She will formerly announce her candidacy later today.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"14Warren\"After weeks of testing the political waters, Elizabeth Warren, a Harvard Law School professor and Wall Street critic<\/strong>, will officially announce her run for the US Senate tomorrow morning against Republican incumbent Scott Brown.<\/p>\n

A senior campaign adviser has confirmed to the Globe that Warren will launch her candidacy by greeting voters across the state, beginning with a morning visit to a Boston MBTA station. She will then head to New Bedford, Framingham, Worcester, and Springfield, making similar appearances shaking hands and greeting voters.<\/p>\n

Warren will not make any formal statements or speeches, but her aides will put a video on her campaign website featuring the candidate talking about the major themes she will strike as a candidate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pressures on middle class families are worse than ever, but it is the big corporations that get their way in Washington,\u201d Warren says in the video, according to a partial script given to the Globe. \u201cI want to change that. I will work my heart out to earn the trust of the people of Massachusetts.\u201d <\/p>\n

Warren\u2019s entrance into the race has drawn keen interest from state and national Democratic leaders who feel that she could generate the necessary excitement – and funds – to give Brown a serious challenge.<\/p>\n

He stunned the party establishment in January 2010 when he won the special election to replace a party icon, the late Senator Edward M. Kennedy. He is seeking his first full, six-year term next year\u2026 [emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

You\u2019d better believe that I\u2019ll be watching that interview!<\/font><\/p>\n

Were it not for extreme incompetence on the part of the Democratic Party by taking the seat for granted, Scott \u201cbagger\u201d Brown would never befouled Teddy Kennedy\u2019s Senate seat.  It\u2019s time to send him to the ranks of the unemployed, fumigate the seat, and welcome a real progressive to the Senate.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
