Are Democrats Pondering Dumping Fauxcahontas?
— Ace

It has to be on their minds, of course, so the question is rhetorical.

The real question is how seriously they're considering it.

If Ms. DeFranco [Warren's last remaining Democratic rival for the nomination] clears one more hurdle Â— winning 15 percent of the delegate vote at the state Democratic convention in Springfield next Saturday Â— she will secure a spot on the primary ballot, giving Ms. Warren, a nationally known consumer advocate, an unwanted distraction from her anticipated showdown with Senator Scott P. Brown, the Republican incumbent.

The very liberal San Francisco Chronicle ran an column ridiculing her claims:

I also believe that Warren was too smart to not know that she was 31 times more white than Native American. She's too smart to not know that the designation could help her career, while taking pressure off Harvard Law to hire a real minority. But she was not so liberal that she cared.

She isn't Cherokee at all, dude.

And couldn't we say that about 99 percent of liberals?

3 Thing is that the 1/32d Cherokee thing that she hangs her hat (headdress?) on that everyone jokes about is a flat out lie. So people argue about the one-drop rule, and she doesn't even have one drop.

6 Massachusetts Democrats elected Ted Kennedy seven times after he killed a woman with his Oldsmobile. They re-elected Gerry Studds 9 times after he admitted to molesting a House Page. Why should they suddenly get moral about lying?

Posted by: Gregory of Yardale at May 29, 2012 10:51 AM (gPDxp)

7 My theory is that Massachusetts liberals despise the rest of America and elect the worst scumbag politicians in the state ... Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, Barney Frank, Gary Studds, Bill Delahunt, Ed Markey... to Congress in order to punish the rest of us.

12 Why should they suddenly get moral about lying? They aren't. They get "moral" about winning. Warren is getting no traction against Brown. Remember when Torricelli was being investigated? They weren't all moral about him being a crook until it became clear that he would lose, so they broke the law and replaced him with someone else.

No, this is a pipe dream.

Elizabeth Warren will be the on the ticket and she'll probably win the election.

I know this is hard for all of you who don't live in MA to accept, but here her supporters don't give a shit about this story.

17 They won't dump her, and she will beat Brown.

She will continue her FYNQ campaign with the constant wail being "middle class families are getting hammered and I will fight for them!"

MA voters are idiots. Brown beat Coakley because she was an empty suit, and he had looks and an everyman story. Not so now. He is an evil Republican senator.

Let me put it this way, MA is bluer than MN, and Elizabeth Warren ain't no Al Franken.

Scott Brown is in for a tough election.

Posted by: Soothsayer at May 29, 2012 10:56 AM (9Q7Nu)

21 why should they suddenly get moral about lying

Because she isn't Ted Kennedy. Because they have already voted for a Republican now. Because the past isn't the future and people learn.

This is why you take the half loaf and then come back for more, instead of shouting RINO every time your candidate isn't Barry Goldwater.

Posted by: Nevergiveup at May 29, 2012 10:56 AM (05RcU)

23 Wait, what? If 15% of the party insiders want to dump Warren, they can opt to *add* DeFranco on the ballot ...?

So the ballot will say something like "For Senator - pick one":
    Brown       (R)
    DeFranco (D)
    Warren      (D)

????

That's not dumping Warren, that's just plain old-fashioned capitulating.

24 Suggest ignoring the Squaw. It's fun stuff, but she'll probably win. MA will go 60% - 65% + for Barry. That's a tough obstacle for Brown to overcome.

It's not about the lying, it's about the ridicule. They kept reelecting Teddy because he could be the rottenest human being on the planet, and still be taken seriously. This woman can't. She's Fauxchahontas now. They could overlook anything, EXCEPT being made the laughingstock of the rest of their liberal brethren.

37 For the record, Fauxcahontas didn't steal a position from a minority, as Law School (which accredits people to go screw up our lgal system and do actual harm to real people) should not be giving any positions based on minority status (or even taking it into account) at all.

I tend to agree Burt. The one thing the left absolutely hates is losing their self-generating sense of superiority over the rest of us knuckle-dragging heathens. So... if candidate X games the "minority status" system and actually hurts said minorities.... off to the reservation.... so to speak.

They don't care. No matter how many positions are filled by a "minority", they just demand more.

If their faculty was comprised of 100% racial minorities they'd whine about whichever (non-white) racial group was least represented and insist that they hire more people to fill the perceived imbalance.

Posted by: Hollowpoint at May 29, 2012 11:13 AM (SY2Kh)

The SFC says: "But she was not so liberal that she cared." That would seem to indicate that she was too conservative to care that she was lying and cheating to get ahead in her life. It should read, 'But she was so liberal that she didn't care.' We always have to correct the SFC.

67 Speaking of the SF Chronicle (sfgate.com), I have been noticing a significant trend to the right in the comments there. Sure, the lefties still have everyone else outnumbered, but that margin is shrinking. I am noticing a lot more free thinking people out there who are questioning the "progressive" agenda on that site.

68 "She isn't Cherokee at all, dude."

Same could be said about what to do with a cadaver for a candidate. In Minnesota, it was a bad idea replacing the dead guy with the almost dead guy, Mondale. In Missouri, they decided to send Mel Carnahan's corpse out there anyway, and lo and behold, he won!

77 So back to the Kimberlin thing, I don't know if Maryland is like Virginia but I expect they are similar - in Virginia, you can get a restraining order on someone if violence occurred and you say that you are frightened - even if you are the one who initiated the violence. This isn't a theoretical reading of the law, I have seen it happen, my ex-wife got a restraining order against my wife after she was the aggressor in an altercation. And then she stalked my wife, trying to get her into violation of the restraining order (the order says the restrained cannot be in "contact" with the protected person - it doesn't stipulate what contact means.) This is an easily manipulable portion of the law. And add to this - the judge has no requirement to follow the law. A judge can do what he/she wants for whatever reason. And in a hard case where he doesn't understand the details, if he wants to go with his gut on who pisses him off more between the two parties, he can do that. Again, this is non-theoretical, I have seen it happen.

Yeah, because minor procedural matters such as passing a budget and determining which bills are allowed a vote don't really matter much, right?

And have you forgotten that Brown provided the 41st vote necessary to successfully filibuster?

But yeah- keep clinging to the notion that a Senate with 20 Jim DeMint clones serving with 80 Dems would somehow be better than putting up with some moderate Republicans in the Senate.

John Edwards Hits the Bar Scene

As the jury in the John Edwards trial continues deliberations this week, the New York Post reports the former presidential candidate "flexed his trial-lawyer charm on pretty Andrea Love, 25, at the dive Bowbarr just outside of Chapel Hill, NC, last spring."

Said Love: "I met him by the bar. I was kind of amused by the situation. He seemed like a charming guy."

"Love said Edwards tried to schmooze her by telling her he was looking forward to practicing law again -- and wanted to represent the poor."

John Edwards Hits the Bar Scene

As the jury in the John Edwards trial continues deliberations this week, the New York Post reports the former presidential candidate "flexed his trial-lawyer charm on pretty Andrea Love, 25, at the dive Bowbarr just outside of Chapel Hill, NC, last spring."

Said Love: "I met him by the bar. I was kind of amused by the situation. He seemed like a charming guy."

"Love said Edwards tried to schmooze her by telling her he was looking forward to practicing law again -- and wanted to represent the poor."

107 Various recent polls show Brown and Shitting Bull essentially tied, so this 'scandal' hasn't hurt her much. She's the only one with a big enough warchest to compete effectively against Scott, who has raised $15 million in campaign funds.

One article earlier today mentioned that Caroline Kennedy could yet come in somehow to take over from Warren -- I dunno how that would work but you can bet that the Kennedy name would attract some big donors.

I put scandal in quotes because to us it is; to liberals, not so much.

Thanks so much, RushBabe. I've had them since I was a little kid. My sister and I called them "twirly eyes", and it wasn't until I was in my 30's that somebody explained they were migraines. Next trip to the doc I'll ask about the Allegra-D. I truly appreciate your advice.

I don't doubt for a moment that he was "charming". Most con men are. You don't scam people very effectively if you act like a jerk that the victim dislikes. Instead you get them to trust you with personal charm and charisma, then empty their bank account and/or convince her into giving a BJ.

However, to be honest, there are real issues middle class families are dealing with every day and thatÂ’s where she seems to be focused. So maybe itÂ’s time to focus on the important issues facing Massachusetts? Plus, Sen.

180 I go to Mass every day and was of course concerned when the administration attempted to circumvent my church's rigid dogma on reproductive health. I was so grateful when they honorably compromised by offering it free of charge through insurance. I do hope same-sex marriage is subsidized in the same way, so that my conscience rights are protected. What concerns me about Brown is that he seems willing too often to align himself with the forces of obstruction rather than compromise.

I don't think anyone in that family is even literate, really. They can sound out the phonemes but it's all just meaningless noise to them. They're transliterate, I guess you could say.

Nice use of "bitch" by the leftist "feminists", BTW. Every time the Indonesian Imbecile hears that he runs to the table and starts drooling.

195 Attorney General Eric Holder, the IRS, and the liberal lawyers at the ACLU will brief several hundred pastors in the African American community on how to participate in the presidential election -- which the Congressional Black Caucus chair expects will help President Obama's campaign. "We will have representatives from nine denominations who actually pastor somewhere in the neighborhood of about 10 million people, and we're going to first of all equip them with the information they need to know about what they can say and what they cannot say in the church that would violate their 501c3 status with the IRS," Rep. Emanuel Cleaver, D-Mo., told MSNBC today. "In fact, we're going to have the IRS administrator there, we're going to have the Attorney General Eric Holder there, we're going to have the lawyers' organization from around the country, the ACLU -- all giving ministers guidance about what they can and cannot do," he noted. Cleaver said they would not tell pastors which candidate to support. They will let them know who to regard as the good guys, though (hint: not Republicans). "We're going to talk about some of the draconian laws that have cropped up around the country as a result of the 17 percent increase in African American votes," Cleaver said, describing voter ID laws as a form of Jim Crow-style "poll tax" on seniors and black voters. How can this be even remotely legal?

OH, Chowderman reminded me...

In case anyone remembers my occassional reports from my liberal FB friends and their commentary on Obama '12... I had an eye-opener this weekend.

My friend is no longer sure who she will vote for in November. Her pastor told his congregation that he will vote for whichever candidate best supports his Christian beliefs. And that left her in a deep, deep quandry.

Obama is Christian (her words), but he supports gay marriage.

But Romney is Mormon, and they're all wierd with their polygamy and Book of Mormon.

So she's now giving a second look at Paul. Which is hard, because she heard he's racist, and she's black.

Glimmer of hope, fellow morons! Here's one voter in Philly that may very well wind up staying home! And by staying home, I mean, her name will only be used once, when someone votes illegally for her in another county.

Not even that...all that matters is claiming to have good intentions...see, liberals are too enamored of their affectations of virtue to understand how stupid they are. It's grade school rhetoric: they proclaim loudly and repeatedly how wonderful their intentions are, so by default we rethuglicans must have bad intentions! They call this binary, black and white mischaracterization 'nuance'.

I have two signed copies of Sowell's Economics books (and a letter from him - we corresponded a few times, and he used one of my snarks once in a column).

I used to teach at a historically Black College (student body was > 95% black). I would regularly lend out these copies to students to show what a conservative black economist had to say on things. Needless to say, it sparked a lot of conversations with students.

"But she was not so liberal that she cared."

Not a big deal in the scheme of things; I had to kind of chuckle. But this presumptuous, holier than thou attitude is why people loathe the MSM.

They just can't resist flinging snot at your face, because after all, you're a conservative, you're really not even worthy of consideration as a person to them.

Keep up the motivation for us to go out and vote, work, and spend for the election of Republicans and conservatives, little leftists. Poke every dumb, sleeping dog with your insult zapper. They'll never wake up.

Posted by: wheatie at May 29, 2012 04:01 PM (YzQ1g)

Semi-open. You can't vote cross-party but if you're "unaffiliated" (independent) you can vote in either primary. D(s) outnumber R(s) something like 3 or 4 to 1 here but over 50% of voters are unaffiliated.

Many of those unaffiliated are disinterested in politics but some are like me - I'm a conservative in one of the most liberal areas of the state (Capuano's district.) For most of the local elections the D primary is the real election and the winner is unopposed in the general. I'd register as an R if I was still in my native Ohio, but if I did that here I'd have absolutely no say in my state rep or senator, city councilors, etc.

So I might have a chance to vote against Fauxcahontas twice this year!

Posted by: lurkah from bahston at May 29, 2012 01:46 PM (p18em)

215 Last week a poll in MA showed that 72% of registered voters said they had heard of the fake Indian story about Warren, but 49% believe she is part Cherokee.

It's one of the most liberal states in the country, expect suspension of disbelief. You have to be willing to instantly disregard the laws of physics, mathematics, and economics to believe most of what the Left believes. A little thing like fake credentials isn't anything for liberals to swallow.

Notice the acclaim for Biden (at least in 2008, among Democrats). They've all forgotten his speech from the '88 campaign where he stole not only the speech, but the biographical details from far-left British Labour leader Neal Kinnock, including the sad story of his father toiling away in the coal mines. Biden's dad never worked in a coal mine. His papers in college and law school show similar instances of plagiarism. And yet, there he sits as President of the Senate.

Being a phony isn't a disqualifier to liberals. They are ALL phonies. We express surprise and disgust at the way they tolerate the likes of Uncle Teddy, Bill Clinton, Al and Jesse, Spitzer, Cuomo, Biden, etc., but that's because we wouldn't accept it from conservatives. Every single leftist you ever met is hiding something. Every one.

Posted by: Adjoran at May 29, 2012 02:11 PM (VfmLu)

216 I think it's interesting because I think it is very difficult to talk about Elizabeth Warren without invoking fakery, without invoking the words "Fauxcahontas." Um, and, ah, ah, why do I feel so comfortable about the word "Fauxcahontas"? I feel comfortable, ah, uncomfortable, about the word because it seems to me that it is so rhetorically proximate to justifications for more casinos.
