I’m sorry this is so short, but it’s sweet.

By Steve LeBlanc Associated Press March 24, 2016

QUINCY, Mass. (AP) — U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren waded deeper into the presidential primary debate Thursday, sharpening her criticism of Donald Trump and cheering on Bernie Sanders.

The Massachusetts Democrat described the Republican presidential front-runner as a failed businessman who inherited a fortune from his father and then maintained it ‘‘by cheating people, by defrauding people, and by skipping out on paying his creditors through Chapter 11’’ bankruptcy protection.

And the  pièce de résistance. . .

On Thursday, when asked if Bernie Sanders should drop out of the race, Warren praised the Democratic senator from Vermont.  [snip]

‘‘He’s out there. He fights from the heart. This is who Bernie is,’’ Warren said. ‘‘He has put the right issues on the table both for the Democratic Party and for the country in general so I’m still cheering Bernie on.’’

Warren declined to say which candidate she voted for in the Massachusetts primary. She said she plans to make an endorsement, but not yet.

May have been diaried before, and if it was, let me know and I’ll delete.

Update & h/t to wade norris (did you write this?):

Bernie Sanders Hints Elizabeth Warren as Vice President

“Elizabeth Warren is a very good friend of mine, I have known her for a long time, before she was in the Senate.

She is a great US Senator.

She has stood up to Wall Street.

She has stood up to the Big Money interests.

So, she uh, she and I will work together”

It’s that last little sentence that he stumbles on, that makes me think they’ve both discussed the possibility of her as his running mate?  Maybe this is why she hasn’t endorsed yet?

  OK — so maybe I’m stretching it, but I like to dream BIG!  :o)
