She doesn&#8217;t have an iota of Bernie Sanders&#8217; authentic empathic populism \u2014 but Sanders will be too old to run next time around. I tried to take Warren seriously during the run-up to the primaries, but her outrageous silence about Sanders&#8217; candidacy when he was battling the corrupt Hillary machine made me see Warren as the facile opportunist that she is. She craftily hid from sight throughout the primaries \u2014 until Hillary won the nomination. Then all of a sudden, there was bouncy, grinning Warren, popping in and out of Hillary&#8217;s Washington mansion as vice-presidential possibilities were being vetted. What an arrant hypocrite! Warren stands for nothing but Warren. My eye is on the new senator from California, Kamala Harris, who seems to have far more character and substance than Warren. I hope to vote for Harris in the next presidential primary.<\/p>\n<p>Camille Paglia, <a href=\"https:\/\/freebeacon.com\/culture\/prominent-democratic-feminist-camille-paglia-says-hillary-clinton-exploits-feminism\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">&#8220;Prominent Democratic Feminist Camille Paglia Says Hillary Clinton &#8216;Exploits Feminism'&#8221;, <em>Washington Free Beacon<\/em><\/a>, 2017-05-15.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elizabeth Warren, a smug Harvard professor, is no populist.
