Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) was spotted being dropped off at Clinton's home and remained there for about an hour, according to CNN and NBC News. A person familiar with that meeting confirmed that Warren did meet with Clinton.
The same networks reported that Clinton also met at her home with Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper, whose name has been less prominent on Clinton's list of potential running mates.

(2,897 posts)I really wanted Warren to stay in the Senate at first, but now I will be a little bit heartbroken if she doesn't get the VP slot.

I know that the Clinton campaign will pick the best person for the job and I've been #withher from the beginning, but I've fallen in love with the idea of Warren as the VP.

I guess we would get used to it. He is the governor of a battleground state, so that is great.
Can't wait to find out who it will be!
