If you’re just getting home from one of reportedly hundreds of #RunWarrenRun house parties held today and thought you’d check out Twitchy to keep the buzz going, you might want to skip the post about the Des Moines Register poll, which has Sen. Elizabeth Warren down 40 points against main rival Hillary Clinton. (Oops, spoiler warning.) Well, she is in second place among Democrats.
If you weren’t invited to one of today’s house parties, the Washington Times explains that the “Run Warren Run” campaign, “comprised of members from the groups MoveOn.org, Democracy for America and Ready for Warren, is planning more than 200 ‘organizing house parties’ in 46 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and Guam to try to develop ideas for how they can convince her to run.”
To be fair, progressive Democrat superstar Sandra Fluke was known to draw crowds that fit comfortably into a single parking space, and that’s when she appeared in person.

The promise of snacks and a president who would finally stick it to the 1 percent was able to fill entire living rooms.

Lots of tweets tonight from @MoveOn of parties with old, white people urging an old, rich, white woman to run for president. #RunWarrenRun

OK, these are boring even to look at. What is it that Democrats are always doing for fun during GOP events?

Too bad we weren’t invited to Mark Ruffalo’s very diverse-sounding party, which he cheated and held early, according to MSNBC.
The Artists for Warren party, to be held at the Manhattan loft of Julie Pacino (actor Al Pacino’s daughter) and screenwriter Jennifer DeLia, will feature food and drinks from chef/indie rocker Brooks Headley and music by singer Tennessee Thomas.
…
Other co-hosts include anti-war activist and socialite Michelle Manning Barish, musician Laura Dawn, artist Sarah Sophie Flicker, and progressive operatives Rachel Goldstein and Charles Lenchner.
One piece of important advice for anyone holding their party Sunday:
