      Warren probably calculated that she would not have made a difference, and she’s almost certainly right.https://twitter.com/LukewSavage/status/1237546725864116224 …

      History will remember that, at a crucial moment when all of her professed values were on the line and she could have made a difference, Elizabeth Warren sat it out. The political and moral cowardice she's displayed unfortunately vindicates many of her harshest critics on the left https://twitter.com/SanaSaeed/status/1237545617007587330 …

      Even if her endorsement meant all her voters went to sanders, he still would have gotten blown out today. And that’s a best case scenario which wouldn’t have happened.

      Politicians don’t like to endorse losing candidates for a bunch of reasons.

      It makes you look weak, it gives you less leverage to influence policy going forward. You piss off your voters often.

      I kind of wish she had. But I bristle are the suggestion that the value of her work is vitiated if she doesn’t endorse the guy you like.

      It’s telling she didn’t endorse Biden. Everyone else has. She has to really dislike him. She will endorse him though, at some point. So will sanders. He’s the nominee.

          I don't think she has to really dislike him. Biden is the sort of politician who would 100% understand her logic for sitting on the fence here. Why alienate either constituency for no gain?

          Great analysis. I would also rather see her get a portfolio (or any other role of influence) in a Biden administration and get to work and elevate her status in the coming years rather than endorse Sanders to likely no effect. It’s a long game.

          After Super Tuesday the cake was baked; she knew it and he probably knew it. One trait that Warren has in spades is pragmatism; endorsing Sanders would have been the quixotic sorta thing that Bernie would’ve done. My guess is that she serves as an emissary between the two camps.

          I disagree. I think she likes Biden as a person (nearly everyone who knows him does — even people like Lindsay Graham before he lost his mind). My guess is that she saw the math and the map & calculated that an endorsement wouldn’t change the outcome. /1

          I think she held back because she wants to influence the platform & if the nominee was likely Biden, she had a better shot of doing that if she stayed neutral. (She spoke very warmly & authentically about Biden on Maddow, which is why I think she likes him on a personal level.)

          So far she's doing the same thing she did in 2016, and I can respect it.
