This is exactly the kind of candidate I hope to see the Dims put forward this fall.😂

But hell yeah she is smokin’

Yeah, ol' Joe can't compete in the looks department.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez >> Student Activities Office | Boston University

I would love to have the Dems capture the senate and go full McConnell (i.e., refuse to even give a hearing to these Trump court nominees).

Try that for a full 2 years and I'm not sure it will play welling 2020.

Won't matter, the NY 14th is composed of parts of the Bronx and Queens. And she's something of a looker.

28 years old. Holy cow. Would she be the youngest ever elected to the House?

Comes to mind: "Lead by children"

Youngest female.

Among her issues is expanding the Medicare program to people of all ages and abolishing Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Your modern day democrat party, folks these people are no longer just America haters they are down right dangerous.

Yep. Terrible people.

Yep. Terrible people.

I would run ads all day linking every dem running to her, Pelosi and Sanders

 

[SpaceCoastVol]

More old school Republicans leaving the party.

Good.:good!:

 

[volfanjustin]

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez just claimed on CNN that ICE is running "black sites" on the border. When pressed on what exactly that means she clarifies that the secrecy around the childhood facilities justifies the term...

More votes for us. We'll take your cast-offs.

Trump has delivered his howler of the day: Crowley lost because he wasn't nice to "his president."

Crowley lost because he wasn't far enough left, you should be worried about your party

Dude, it's NYC. This particular district is composed of portions of the Bronx and Queens. Don't think this is exactly a bellwether for where the party as a whole is going.

Bernie Sanders could have been your nominee had the DNC not rigged the primary. That is exactly where your party is headed.

Crowley sent a proxy to his debate with her and appears not to even live in the district. He had lost touch with the people he represented.

She won because the demographics of the district are roughly 50% immigrants and her message appealed to them.

You disagree your party is moving further left?

 

[TennTom]

You disagree your party is moving further left?

Some of the Dems that have won special elections have been more moderate like Connor Lamb and Doug Jones. If there's any movement more left, it's only to counter the GOP's move right. She's definitely pretty far left, but I think this was a complacent incumbent candidate that thought he had a cakewalk. Shades of Hillary. Love to see more of this. Term limits and getting rid of these do-nothing fossils regardless of party suits me fine.

She’s a known socialist. The people up there voted for DeBlasio too, another wacko.

So the immigrants just ran all the other citizens out of the district? Is that what you’re implying?

So, you’re saying this woman is crazy?

50% illegals? They voted?

This how low rent carnival barkers like Maxine Waters keep getting re-elected. 46% Hispanic

Typical dumb response from you.
