Warren, my Senator, is doing just that from her Senate seat and as always, doing it very well. She returned immediately after she saw she did not have the math to win. She has not been in the Senate all that long, yet has done more than Sanders in his 30 years. See CFPB, she built it long before she won her seat.

She has also been working night and day, with her fellow Democrats, helping write a recovery bill. A bill that will help the poor and now unemployed middle class...two groups that Bernie says he cares about. He never bothered to show up in his seat.
