In a move that may shock some ambitious Massachusetts Democrats, Sen. Elizabeth Warren announced that she’s going to run for reelection in 2024.

“Yep,” the 71-year-old announced in an interview Friday, when asked if she intended to make the run, according to POLITICO.

That answer arrived as some Massachusetts Democrats have been gaming out a competitive primary in a few years that could include personalities like Rep. Ayanna Pressley and former Rep. Joe Kennedy III. Two well-connected Bay State Democrats announced in interviews that they still wonder if Warren might change her mind eventually.

After all, Warren did use the past two years attempting to leave the Senate: the presidential campaign, her auditioning to be vice president, and then the drive to be Biden’s Treasury Secretary.

The failure of those recent attempts appears to weigh heavily on Warren these days, who addresses some of her frustrations in her new book “Persist.”

The book is Warren’s effort to fight with a tough couple of years, while defending some of the beliefs put forth through her presidential campaign. The book has a confessional tone, and it comes at a time when many people in the Democratic Party — including some Warren followers — think she’s at a political crossroads.

“In 2012, I was new to politics. In 2020, I was new to losing,” she writes in the book. She makes self-deprecating references to her loss at many points in the book: “I didn’t win the presidency, of course”; “Damn, I’d lost”; “And no, I didn’t win”; “I hadn’t won my fight”; “I’d laid out my plans and fought as hard as I knew how. And I’d lost.”

The acknowledgments are not immune either. “Campaigns are hard — losing campaigns are even harder,” she states in the book while thanking many friends and aides.

Though when asked if she’d do anything differently, Warren replied “not really.”

Does that mean she thinks there wasn’t ever a way to triumph? “Look, we know the outcome, but I didn't make it. I know that,” she explained in the interview via Zoom, wearing a light-brown zip-up hoodie.

In the book, she confesses to making some strategic blunders. “I was wrong to take the test,” she writes of the DNA test she took to attempt to settle questions regarding her past claims of Native American ancestry.

And she mentions other factors that damaged her but doesn’t hone on a single thing. She says that she never recovered from the Medicare for All discussion and the headwind of attempting to be the first woman president.

She says that both Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden had bases of loyal supporters that made it hard for any other candidate to break through in the race. Warren also writes that “There’s always another possibility, a much more painful one: in this moment ... maybe I just wasn’t good enough.”
