Strange you say that. The poll says it surveyed voters statewide

It was not the Rove ad since the ad I saw clearly stated at the end "I'm Elizabeth Warren and I approve this ad".

Elizabeth Warren has never, ever said that in any ad, nor in any interview.

You are probably referring to an interview she gave back about that time, where she said she had, "worked on the intellectual foundation for Occupy Wall Street."

The right wing took that and twisted it to falsely say Warren claimed she was the mother of the Occupy movement. She never claimed that. The GOP claimed that. You are repeating that twist.

Now, the hilarious thing is that Rove has completely backtracked on that, as his ad boosted her fundraising. Rove's latest ad paints Elizabeth Warren as a Wall Street insider.

You can't buy humor like the GOP gives for free.

BTW - Elizabeth Warren was a registered and voting lifetime Republican until about the time she was 40. She quit the party when it changed.

GOP casts Elizabeth Warren as 'radical' mother of Occupy Wall Street
October 27, 2011|By James Oliphant

Even as she has drawn closer to securing the Democratic nomination in the U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren is under fire for comments that were viewed by some as taking credit for the Occupy Wall Street movement.

Warren’s candidacy got a boost this week when rival Alan Khazei dropped out of the race, joining Setti Warren, another former Senate candidate, on the sidelines and seemingly giving a clear shot for the Harvard University law professor to take on incumbent Republican Sen. Scott Brown next fall.

But Warren continues to face some blowback for comments to a Daily Beast reporter in which she said she laid the “intellectual foundation” for the movement.

The Massachusetts GOP released a video Thursday that dubbed Warren the “Matriarch of Mayhem” and in which protesters are shown decrying capitalism.

"Elizabeth Warren. Too Divisive. Too Radical,” it intones.

Warren, of course, became a nationally known figure for her role as overseer of TARP, the Wall Street bailout program and her role in establishing a new federal consumer protection bureau. Since she launched her candidacy last month, she has branded herself a middle-class warrior who has, to many progressives, made a case for increasing taxes on the wealthy more effectively than President Obama or other Democrats in Washington. Remarks she made at a campaign event at which she said that “there is nobody in this country who got rich on his own” quickly became a Web sensation.

She’s tried to paint Brown, who cast himself as a truck-driving everyman in his upstart Senate win last year, as captive to financial interests.

Warren nearly doubled Brown’s take during the year’s third-quarter fundraising period, raking in $3.15 million and telegraphing that she will be a formidable challenger to Brown, who still enjoys widespread popularity as a Republican in a bluer-than-blue state.

You can see all the ads, both by Warren and by Rove, and interviews, on YouTube.

I saw the poll results. You do realize that inner suburbs, outer suburbs, and southeastern Ma. are all considered the Boston area? Also Umass was involved in this poll UMass west is in Amherst. When Barney Frank gets favorable results from all areas in a poll, you can pretty much tell selected areas were polled.

I'm sorry you can't find the ad on youtube. As I said before, perhaps it was a test ad played only in Mass.. Since I live in Mass. and know what I saw and heard, I'll go by that. I'm not going to argue youtube videos with you. I'll leave that to others with more free time on their hands. It will be an interesting Senate race to watch. Have a good evening.

I imagine much will change in the polling in the next 11 months. Long time to go yet.
