I thought there was a thread, but don't see one. And I don't want to run afoul of the mods, but this link is to an op ed from a Bernie supporter who answers his own question with YES (and possibly with a prayer LOL)
"Their voter bases have always been different: Warren’s overwhelmingly have post-grad degrees, are white and upper middle class, whereas the Sanders coalition is younger and more diverse, both racially and economically.
Some Warren supporters who supported Hillary Clinton in 2016 are still angry at him for not exiting the race. I can’t claim to empathize, and the ill will cuts both ways.
But if the Warren campaign truly is the policy-based effort I’ve been told many times that it is, it’s time to put policy first and back the one candidate on the left who can actually win. "
But Barnie Frank of Frank Dodd was not Bernie supporter, and no way could Bernie have gotten that law … and Obama let Warren have the Consumer Protection gig. Wall St may go for a tax on short term trades if they have little option, but they'll fight Bernie to the death, and they'll win.
