We told you last week about Elizabeth Warren doing an about-face on super PACs after having previously asked other candidates to agree to avoid them as she did back in October:
The Democratic primary should belong to grassroots supporters and grassroots donors, not the rich and powerful.

Warren ended up taking her own pledge only 1/1024ths seriously:
NEW: Warren super PAC plunges $9 MILLION into Super Tuesday states.

We can’t wait to hear how Warren spins this if challenged on it at the next Dem debate — if she’s still in the race then.
