The tableau surrounding Hillary Clinton on Monday was impressive: Thirteen women Democratic senators endorsing the Democratic 2016 presidential front-runner en masse.
The evening fundraising event on Capitol Hill brought in a chunk of campaign cash ahead of an often difficult fund-raising month in December. But it was also meant to underscore Clinton’s near monopoly among Democratic lawmakers who have declared a preference, and her appeal as the first woman with a strong shot at becoming president.
But one particularly influential female Democratic senator didn’t join her colleagues: Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. – the anti-Wall Street crusader who was courted to run as the darling of very liberal Democrats – has not endorsed Clinton, nor has she promised she will.
Her absence served as an awkward reminder of Clinton’s enduring struggle to generate support and enthusiasm among an influential segment of her party’s most liberal members. It also illustrates the leverage that Warren holds in an election that Democrats are calculating will be waged on issues of economic advancement and fairness.
