Warren is setting the stage for the 2016 presidential elections. The narrative has begun, and the Democrats are going to return to their populist, lunch-box, working-man roots. Yes, we know their full of beans and their still elitists, but populist issues are going to play big in 2016. The Dems are hemorrhaging the white blue-collar and middle-class vote.

I'm not sure they can do that. The Dems have reached, and possibly passed, the tipping point where all the policy wishes of the disparate members of their coalition are starting to collide with one another.

How do you sell a white blue-collar voter on the Dem Party when his job was just taken by an Hispanic granted amnesty by the Democrats? How do you sell the middle class on the Dem Party when their tax dollars are going to support political payouts to key member groups of the Democrat base?

The Dems are masters at reinvention and strategy. Take for example what happened after Reagan's 2nd term. The Dems created a front group called the DLC which steered the party into a populist, pro-growth party. It's already happening now with Elizabeth Warren as its leader.

The Dems aren't going to talk about amnesty and they'll make sure their media arms won't either. Because the illegals will already be here and registering to vote and being eligible for benefits.

What they'll talk about is how we can bring back manufacturing jobs to the U.S., trade, and making sure that everyone has access to high-tech computer skills.

How do you sell the middle class on the Dem Party when their tax dollars are going to support political payouts to key member groups of the Democrat base?

That's not going to be mentioned either.

I'm telling you, the rebranding has already begun. The Dems are going to turn themselves back into the old lunch-pail, pro-national security, and pro-jobs Dems of yesteryear.
