A new narrative to explain for the decline of Elizabeth Warren’s campaign is emerging after her disappointing results in New Hampshire, where she finished in fourth. Warren, according to her campaign and supporters, is being erased by mainstream media outlets and cable news, the same outlets that last summer and fall covered her glowingly as she rose in the polls and released plan after ambitious plan. Instead of the coverage that Warren’s camp would rather receive, what we’re getting from the political press is obituary after obituary on her campaign, all asking the question, what happened?

, decamped to more moderate candidates like Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar. Those who want the “big, structural change” Warren often talks about are flocking to Sanders; those whose primary goal is getting Trump out are favoring less progressive candidates.Warren’s gender has clearly played a role in her candidacy, yet her recent decline in the polls isn’t a clear-cut example of a woman being erased from the narrative.
