CNN Analyst on Warren: ‘Massachusetts Voters Who Know Her Best Don’t Like Her’ Compared to Other Dems

‘It’s a warning sign to me’

EXCERPT:

ENTEN: "I think it's a great question. It's potentially because she's very progressive, maybe a little too progressive, even for Massachussets. But it should be said that Sherrod Brown in Ohio has a long progressive record and he actually outperformed how House Democrats did. It could also be the case that maybe there’s just something about her personally that voters don’t like. I should point out, this is just one way to look at electability, right? We’re going to have a case, Elizabeth Warren and the rest of the Democrats are going to perform in many debates and we’ll see how she does in that particular case. But I will say that when you look at how Massachusetts voters view Elizabeth Warren, whether it be in her re-election margin or where they place her in early primary polls, where she's running third or fourth, despite the fact that Massachusetts Democrats know her very well, I think if you were to project that out and say, hey, these Massachusetts voters who know her best don’t like her in comparison as much as the other Democrats, it’s a warning sign to me."
