I am thinking that if you're thinking that Warren is thinking about running, then your thinking is wrong. ;-)

I think that Warren is thinking about leveraging the Democratic political narrative toward more Wall Street and banking regulation and that talk about running might help do so. And she would run only to further move that narrative. She knows she has no serious electoral hopes beyond the senate and will have to work extremely hard to keep the seat.

She strikes me as much too hard headed to consider running as some sort of real possibility she could win the Dem nomination. Nor even get the vp nod. If Clinton is the nominee, the vp nod will go to someone who is perceived as the classic Dem "moderate", a label no longer available to Clinton. No one leaps to mind but I have little doubt there will be lots available, eager, whatever.
