Democratic presidential candidate Senator Elizabeth Warren will get help from a super PAC before Nevada’s caucuses, despite her outspoken opposition to these fundraising efforts. While left-leaning articles highlight Warren’s opposition to super PACs, right-leaning articles question why 'any civilized person' would support the Democratic Party.

A left-leaning article by The Washington Post highlights that a new super PAC called Persist PAC launched to spend unlimited amounts of money to boost Warren’s presidential bid. Warren has empathetically rejected super PACs while attacking her opponents receiving their help. Her campaign released a statement clarifying that the senator’s position has not changed, but did not specifically address Warren’s feelings about Persist PAC.

Reuters published a centrist article reporting that Persist PAC launched a new commercial in Nevada backing Warren’s candidacy and features images of Warren with former President Barack Obama. a super PAC called Kitchen Table Conversations supporting Senator Klobuchar has formed and is running ads in Nevada and South Carolina. The article notes that Warren needs a comeback in Nevada after finishing third and fourth in both Iowa and New Hampshire. 

Washington Times published a right-leaning article also highlighting that  Sen. Elizabeth Warren after repeatedly and forcefully denouncing outside spending, is getting air cover from a brand-new super PAC ahead of the Nevada caucuses Saturday. Patricia Heaton questions why 'any civilized person' would support the Democratic Party.
