LA Times: Massachusetts Senate race tests feelings about Wall Street

Damn, I want her to win next fall in the worst way.

Warren’s campaign rhetoric wasn’t dreamed up by a political consultant.

The Harvard University law professor has spent years researching the financial struggles of average Americans and said she’s been “protesting Wall Street for a very long time.”

“I think after three years with no accountability, people across this country are madder than ever,” Warren said after a Democratic debate at Stonehill College on Dec. 6.

“They’ve watched the people who brought us the financial crisis walk away, and walk away with their pockets stuffed with money. They know that’s not right,” she said. “I think it’s a key part of the protests.”
