lol what pass has the media given Elizabeth Warren? Everyone was saying she was dead and buried, writing her off after the Native American DNA controversy. She's earned the press she's getting by doing the work of building a substantive campaign, getting in front of issues first, and proposing bold, transformative changes. She's working harder than any other candidate by multitudes and hasn't even yet gotten the burn she deserves yet. I'm sure when she wins the nomination the Third Way pricks will rear their ugly heads and try to water down her general campaign, Howard Schultz will probably rise from the dead and bloviate about the markets crashing, etc. But overall, she's a genuinely likable person and candidate. The Hillary comparison couldn't be further from reality imo. Hillary was wooden and corny as a motherfukker. She ran a gimmick-based campaign. "Pokemon Go to the polls! Watch me whip, watch me nae nae! Hot sauce! Dangerous Donald!". Liz is all substance mixed with heart. Obviously authenticity is a subjective metric, but I think she has it in spades. That speaks more to her rise than the media allegedly handling her with kid gloves.
