Pros:
- Would enthuse the activists in the party to work harder
- Would double down on the areas Hillary may be going for (history making, embracing populism)

Cons:
- Two women at once may be too much for a country that never even elected one
- Two older women from safe states in the Northeast?
- The media would crucify Warren as the "Democratic Ted Cruz"
- Warren would probably be too old to run in 2024

It seems extremely unlikely.

IceSpear, were you saying the media would unfairly or fairly call her the "Democratic Ted Cruz"?  I'd say it's a fairly good comparison.  Both are charismatic, relatively new faces who are seriously annoyed with their party's moderates and trying to drag their parties to the (more) extreme ends of the spectrum.

Well, call me when Warren shuts down the government. Wink
