      Warren was talking about her commitment to the fight two years ago. Tonight’s Beast Master vibe may be new in these debates, but it’s not new for her thinking and approach to politics:https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/07/elizabeth-warren-fight-to-defeat-trump.html …

      Also this is who she has long been in Washington. She brought it to Biden over bankruptcy; she called Wells Fargo CEO “gutless;” she eviscerated the Equifax guy; she went after Geithner. But debates are tricky; even before tonight she’s been called too angry, so this was a risk.

      Bloomberg is such a perfect foil for Warren because he's such a smug bastard that even people uncomfortable with female anger can still enjoy seeing her slash him. He's a fantastic punching bag.

      She played her anger perfectly and righteously vs Bloomberg and probably raised a lot if needed money off of that alone. When she made throwaway trashing remarks vs. Pete/Amy (inserting attacks on them when they weren’t even in the discussion), she went over the top.

      I'm up in the air about that. She needs Amy and Pete voters to be viable. I think she should've taken Pete out earlier.

          Right, but she had no organic party last night to do that, or, if she did, she didn’t quite find/take it. It wasn’t quite as jarring as Biden going after Bernie on immigration w/25 seconds left on its close, but it just wasn’t directly on point the way she gloriously was with

          Bloomberg. With Pete, you have to undercut his persona/narrative, not his policies, “Look, you’re a very bright young man, but we’re not going to run Doogie Hauser, small city mayor, against Godzilla. C’mon.”

          We need someone with enough fire and the record to inspire the 100 million who didn't vote in 2016 to go to the polls in 2020. She's that someone. #WarrenForTheWin
