Warren recently posted a letter, "Coming Home," on Blue Mass Group. The post was widely received as an indication she is strongly considering a Senate run against Sen. Scott Brown, a Republican. Huffington Post, which is part of the same media group as Patch, reported an annoucement of the run would come after Labor Day.

"I love that someone who understands financial regulations will be *writing* them," Tweeted JP's Kristie Helms, who goes by cubiclegirl on the micro-blogging service.
