I'm not so pessimistic about her ambitions but I don't see her as presidential material in the current climate.

I'm try to see how this arguments differs from the arguments made against Obama in 2006/7.

Ashamed? Did she eat children? Why the shame?

Obama wasn't my first choice either ;)

The difference is Obama is a centrist. That does make me like his political positions less, but it allows him to win. Also he had a phenomenal way of motivating people. Maybe Warren will pull that out somehow, but I don't see it right off.

Also she was born in Oklahoma City, and that immediately makes me think she hiding some deep defect.

That question (who is more liberal or mainstream) came up in the 2008 race.
