Elizabeth Warren’s stumbling efforts to douse the firestorm surrounding her claims of being a Native American minority have raised concerns among local and national Democrats who are questioning her campaign’s competence.
“There’s nobody watching this that doesn’t think she’s in big trouble,” one well-known Massachusetts Democrat said.
Joe Trippi, a prominent national Democratic consultant, told the Herald that while Warren has time to recover, the campaign should have anticipated this issue would surface.
One well-known Massachusetts Democratic strategist faulted Warren and her campaign for failing to put out a consistent message.
The strategist also said many local Democrats are alarmed at the campaign’s failure to contain the damage after the Herald first reported about Warren’s minority status at Harvard in the 1990s, based on claims her great-great-great grandmother was Cherokee.
After first saying she didn’t know anything about reports that Harvard Law had listed her as a minority, Warren’s campaign then said she was “proud” of her Native American heritage, citing records showing she was 1⁄32nd Cherokee.

A fake, phoney, fraud, Democrat. What a shock!
Many moons till election....
I think what Warren was trying to say is that she didn’t know she was proud of her Native American heritage. Right Liz?
The Democratic primary for this senate seat does not happen until September. While all the other major Dem candidates have dropped out, it may still be possible for someone else to enter.

‘One well-known Massachusetts Democratic strategist faulted Warren and her campaign for failing to put out a consistent message.’
Translation: Lie and keep on telling the same lie until everyone accepts its as the truth. Its the democrat way.
But, high cheekbones Elizabeth Warahontas has!
That’s the amazing part to me, their total lack of anticipation or reaction to this.
I still think she will win because bashing bankers will prove very popular in this cycle, particularly in such a blue state.
Face it, each and every one of the Kennedy Clan was the biggest phony that you can imagine. Did not stop them from turning Taxachusetts into their fiefdom.
Elizabeth Warren the composite Indian.
Momma always taught me it’s hard to keep your lies straight and not get tripped up.
I’ll never understand this dem fetish with “pride” over something you didn’t accomplish and were simply born with.
That picture of the Land ‘o Lakes Indian butter girl is more real Indian that Elizabeth Warren. What a pathetic fraud.
Because they never accomplish anything (positive).
They build their foundations on "feelings" so why would anyone expect different?
My Dad,during his career,had many Harvard (and MIT) grads working under him.He always used to joke "you can always tell a Harvard man,but you can't tell him much".
She’s also trying to portray herself as some poor kid from Oklahoma when in fact she drove a sports car to high school. She doesn’t deny it but says the car was beat up.
I like the Leinenkugels beer Indian princess myself
Dems do to themselves what no neutered Republican would dare do...
Twice Massachusetts had a chance to vote for a real Native American for Vice President, in 1928 and in 1932, Charles Curtis (R), and both times they refused. A senator has more real power than a Vice President. Maybe they won't object to someone who has such a small percentage of Indian ancestry.
