What is your opinion of her? Should she head the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection?

Oh look, someone is already attempting to hijack the poll.

I've noticed this prank on many of the polls. Can someone not put a stop to this foolish hackery?
I would love to be able to set an option that people must be logged in before they vote.
Can anyone do this? Say even someone who is not even a member here?
I just logged off and voted that this poll sucks and than logged back on.
Fifteen times? Can you vote more than once?

Her wiki article reads like a puff piece about her, so it's worth reading about a few of the criticisms of her in order to understand the opposition.

She seems like an unabashed partisan who has very strong feelings about what is and is not proper practice. Whether one supports her for this position will probably depend on whether or not one shares her views.
If Elizabeth Warren is a Holy Crusader, what are the bankers? Jihadists?

After the financial meltdown of a few years back, there's not denying that reform is needed. She not only seems to have the smarts, experience and goods to do the job, but most importantly, she seems to have the interest of regular joe blow American at heart. Banks seem to dislike her, and I don't think that is a bad thing.
BTW, I did read your posted links, and the crusade one was just an opinion piece that had little to offer. But I did get a kick out of one of the comments, though, and had to share. ;-)
:lol::lol::lol:
BTW, here's an interesting counter article to the author of your second link, and her conclusions on Warren:

He raises what appear to be some valid criticisms, but I'm not interested enough to go through the arguments line by line. I just wanted to point out some other perspectives, given the nature of the wiki link.
She seems to be bright, efficient and most importantly, honest. If she doesn't get the position, it will be another black eye for the Obama government.
