My response, on my Facebook page:

Much of Nate Cohn's argument boils town to: Wall Street is not Iraq. Here's
what that misses: Iraq didn't become Iraq by itself. Organizing and
advocacy by Democratic human brings made it so. If you are one of those
people, and one of your goals in life is to make Wall Street be like Iraq,
then you relish the prospect of Warren running. Because if Warren runs,
then the task of you and your fellows, for which massive resources and
energy will suddenly appear, is to make Wall Street be like Iraq. Which
means that if you win you win, and also if you lose you win. Because no
matter what happens, when you're done, Wall Street is going to be much more
like Iraq.
