Democratic Sen. [crscore]Elizabeth Warren[/crscore] conducted what was supposed to be an interview on “CBS This Morning” on Thursday, but instead of providing actual answers to questions about Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, she dodged the questions.
It got so bad that one of the hosts of the show, Norah O’Donnell, called her out for not providing straight answers.
O’Donnell asked Warren, “Senator, let me turn to the presidential race in 2016. All of your female Democratic senators have endorsed Sen. Hillary Clinton. You have not yet made an endorsement. Will you do it before the convention?”
Warren replied, “I don’t have a timeline for this, but I got to tell you, watching what has been going on the Democratic side really makes me prouder to be a Democrat. We’ve been out there talking about the issues, both Hillary and Bernie, about how it is that young people are going to be able to get an education without getting crushed by student loan debt, how we can better rein in Wall Street, how we can have trade deals that don’t just leave workers in the dirt.”
O’Donnell interjected, “You know your lack of an endorsement at this stage, though, has raised some questions. Let me ask you this: do you believe that Sen. Clinton should release the transcripts of her speeches to Goldman Sachs?
“Look, I think that our candidates are out doing what they should do in a primary,” Warren replied. “They are debating the issues.”
“You’re not answering my question, senator,” O’Donnell argued.
“What I’m doing is I’m telling you what I think should be going on right now in this election,” Warren said.
“It’s just a yes-or-no question,” O’Donnell shot back. “It’s a yes-or-no question. Should she release the transcripts or not?”
Warren replied, “What I told you, I think the primaries are doing exactly what they should be doing and the candidates are being tested.”
Later, the Massachusetts senator was asked, “What will it take for you to make an endorsement of either candidate? What more do you need to hear?”
Warren replied, “What I’m glad to see is what is happening right now. And that is that the Democrats are out talking about the issues. I think it makes it very distinct what happens between our side and what is happening over on the other side. They’re doing some kind of reality show. We’re out here trying to talk about the issues that affect American people.”
