Jumping the Gun

For John, BLUF:  It hasn't been a good week for Senator E Warren.  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Elizabeth Warren embarasses herself — BADLY — over demand for McConnell to seat Doug Jones ‘without delay’

From Twitchy and Greg P., 13 December 2017.

Here is the lede plus one:

Does Sen. Elizabeth Warren know how elections works?  Apparently not.

The Massachusetts liberal went on the warpath last night and demanded Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell seat special-election winner Doug Jones “without any delay”

The thing is, the Alabama Secretary of State has to Certify the election and then there is the threat of a challenge, which has to await the Certification.  It is going to be the end of the year.

By way of comparison, Ambassador Scott Brown was elected 20 January and was sworn in on 4 February 2010.  Government is not fast.

By the way, was it wrong for Greg P to use the term "warpath"?

Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
