Looks like Dems are scrambling to get on the Progressive Wagon, or something.
What worries me a bit - this position makes it more logical or easy for Hillary to pick Liz as VP, which (IMO) would be just to neutralize her and a ploy to pick up progressive support.
Of course, VPs are not picked until after the primary is won, right? I still feel, a bit, like primaries are not wanted this time. Too expensive, and the crown might get pushed off.

“She is not a lonely voice when it comes to trying to make sure Americans in this country get a fair shot,” McCaskill said. “I think Elizabeth Warren speaks for a lot of us when she talks about those issues, not just the more liberal organizations out there.”


No, there is Sanders and a few others. Pretty much a lonely voice, though. Too bad "more liberal organizations" doesn't just mean the Democratic Party any more.....
