Warren’s opponents like to suggest that her ideas are somehow outside the mainstream; in fact, she draws support from across the political spectrum. In last month’s fight against Citigroup’s successful effort to roll back Dodd-Frank, for example, Warren’s allies included the House Democratic leadership, the Independent Community Bankers of America, Republican Senator David Vitter, and Thomas Hoenig (a Republican-appointed vice chair of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation).
那些反对沃伦的人喜欢将她的提案归结为某种非主流观点；但事实上，她赢得了来自各派派别的支持。例如在上月试图阻击花旗银行修订多德-弗兰克法案的斗争中，沃伦的同盟来自于众议院民主党首脑，美国独立社区银行家联合会，共和党参议员戴维·维特（David Vitter）及托马斯·贺尼格（Thomas Hoenig）——共和党指派担任联邦储蓄保险公司的副主席人选。
