PROVIDENCE, R.I. — With a voice hoarse not from last week’s Massachusetts Democratic convention, but from “the parties,” she said, Elizabeth Warren took the stage at the annual Netroots Nation conference here Friday afternoon with a clear goal: link her GOP opponent, Sen. Scott Brown, to the presumptive GOP nominee, Mitt Romney.
The Harvard professor and Democratic Senate nominee made no mention in her 10-minute remarks of the months-long flap over her Native American heritage, an imbroglio that the Brown campaign as seized upon and that polls suggest could take a toll on Warren in November.
Rather, Warren’s only allusion to the episode came as she told the cavernous hall of nearly 3,000 progressive activists that she remains determined to stay in the race for the same reasons she jumped into it.
“Let me make clear, I am not backing down,” Warren said to loud applause.
As she seeks to unseat Brown in what stands to be among this year’s most competitive (and expensive) Senate battles, Warren on Friday repeatedly took aim at “the Romney-Brown Republicans” on matters ranging from her signature issue of financial regulatory reform to campaign finance and the battle over health insurers and contraception.
“The Republican nominee, Mitt Romney, said, ‘Corporations are people.’ No, Mitt, corporations are not people,” she said to cheers. “People have hearts. They have kids. They get jobs. They get sick, they laugh, they cry, they dance, they live and they die. Learn the difference.”
After pausing again for a long round of applause, Warren added: “And Mitt, learn this. We don’t run this country for corporations, we run it for people.”

So she's hitting all the powwows.
Chicken Little as Peep Revere would have to yell "The moonbats are coming! The moonbats are coming!
Give it up Warren. Your professorship at Hahvarhd notwithstanding, you are one stupid, self-serving lib.

Is Fauxcahontas Crockagawea still moving her damaged goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for?
At least she doesn’t have to worry that maurauding bands would come and seize everything from her while she is at her Affirmative Action job in the Liberal Dogma Factory called Harvard.
Fauxcahontas knows that she is safe there in her ivy covered red brick wigwam because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for.
Fauxcahontas Crockagawea remembers that part of the underlying social contract is that she should take a large hunk of her ill gotten wampum and pay it forward for the next lying liberal commie who comes along to scam the system as she did to get a free ride.
and Warren will win ,she’ll scalp Brown
These people are running your country.
And every election cycle keep winning.
And you wonder why they talk down to us?
If I was a liberal Democrat I’d be laughing and flipping everyone off too - no one is stopping them.
They’re polling even...
Brown will win, IMO.
Looking at the thing objectively (IMO), there are multiple honorable ways a person can deal with affirmative action/racial quotas. One can embrace it if they feel it is right, one can simply accept it if they don’t feel that strongly, or one can fight it.
Really, the only dishonorable way to deal with the issue is to dishonestly use it to cheat to get ahead while expecting honest people to “toe the line”. It appears that this is what E.W. did.
1/32.
Is that why they are leaving ?
They’re polling even...
Brown will win, IMO.
sorry I was going with the Indian theme
The Song Of Princess No-Know-Much and Little Obama-watha
By the shores of River Charles
By the shining Oily Waters,
Stood the wigwam of No-Know-Much,
Moon Bat Daughter of the Marxists
Dark behind it rose the forest
Rose the forest of red brick wigwams
Rose the Starbucks and Panera Bread
By the square were Harvard stood
Bright before it beat the water
Beat the slimy dirty water
Beat the shining Oily-Water
On the shores of River Charles
There the wrinkled old No-Know-Much
Nursed the little Obama-watha
Rocked him in his golden cradle
Bedded soft in fresh arugula
Safely bound with puppet strings
Stilled his fretful wail by saying
“Hush! the Right Wing Bears will hear thee!”
Lulled him into slumber, singing
“Oh yes you won! My little monkey!
Who is this that lights my wigwam?
With his Big Ears comes to my wigwam?
Oh-yea, Oh-yea you little monkey!”
no of course not, for the unions...
World Ends Tomorrow: Women who are fake minorities, hardest hit.
She also goes by the name 'Liewatha'.
While Warren was at Netroots Nation, Scott Brown and Gov. Patrick were attending a policeman’s funeral.
Shows where Warren’s priorities are.

“I think this completely sums up the liberal viewpoint.”
You are spot on. Liberalism attracts narcissistic politicians for precisely the reason that she inadvertently exposed with her comment. Liberalism gives them and opportunity to be ‘special’ and ‘take care’ of others from their ‘superior’ positions. There is nothing altruistic or humanitarian about it.
“We don’t run this country for corporations, we run it for people.”
We run this country for fake minorities...yeah, that’s what we do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Guess what, the rest of us do not live and work in this country to be slaves to looters like you!
UH, Liz....
You don’t run the country at all.
