8. I think "Run, Warren, Run" has brought many Progressive Democrats closer together. Now

they'll have to decide what to do. I'm sure Warren will be glad that her supporters will shift
over to her fellow-Progressive, Bernie Sanders, who is running as a Democrat. It makes
sense. Warren and Sanders have pretty much the same political views and goals, and both
are fighters -- unlike the Third-Way Democratic politicians.

I think, at the appropriate time, Warren will ask her fans to support Sanders. With her in
the Senate (as Democratic Senate leader, I hope), and him as President, it would be a great
team. They'd make a great team anyway, whether she becomes the Dem. Senate leader
or not.

I am a Warren supporter, and I respect her decision not to run. She must have her reasons.
