it's wild that anyone lets him talk in public

yeah, you'd think someone would have corralled him off from public exposure by now

can't we just lock him in a vault with some porn and some hamburgers

seriously though let's see how this plays out , maybe if we show them respect they'll respect us right back

yet he would find a way to talk the hamburgers to death such that when Geraldo opens the vault the hamburgers are hanging from nooses

So yeah, my question to the pol. experts: how many Ocasio-Cortez can happen? is it something that is strickly New York? is it realistic to think a certain blueprint has been laid down for the rest of nation?

No expert, but Harry Enten pointed to Steve Cohen of Tennessee as vulnerable. The only white guy in a district as non-white as NY14. So eyes on Memphis and hoping the DSA is on it.
― Frederik B, Wednesday, 27 June 2018 18:03 (six years ago) link
recognizing Harry Enten as "no expert" is one point on which i'll agree with you wholeheartedly.

if you think for a second that statement had more to do with real polling than with trying to own the terms of discussion you're a fucking idiot

dear keith ellison, something has happened in the past 24 hours that you may want to mention in your latest fundraising blast
"Our country has gone through some ugly days, Katherine -- and yesterday is going to go down as one of them.
The Supreme Court in the 1850s said that it was OK to own a black person, and that was the Dred Scott decision. That decision hit the dustbin of history -- and the decision to uphold Trump's Muslim ban will too.
The Republican Party thinks that because they stole a Supreme Court seat and gave themselves a 5-4 majority, they can jam any racist, xenophobic, ugly policy down the throats of the American people. But we don't have to take it, Katherine -- we can start fighting back right now."

I don't think it hurts to really drive home the obvious: that conservatives' pro-life agenda is pointedly anti-woman, and that the GOP is perfectly okay with letting women die as a result of their policies.

I overall completely agree with her approach, but why not also say "VOTE PRO-CHOICE STATE LEGISLATORS AND GOVERNORS INTO OFFICE" -- that's the #1 guarantee of legal abortion in your state if we reach a post-Roe world.

here is the full text of Pelosi's response to a question re: socialism at the press conference. Clearly she is a monster lol
When asked by CBS News' Nancy Cordes if democratic socialism is "ascendant" in the Democratic Party, Pelosi responded with a firm "no."
"No. They're not," Pelosi said. "It's ascendant in that district perhaps! But I don't accept any characterization of our party presented by the Republicans. So let me reject that right now."
The once and perhaps future Speaker of the House went on to describe her party as a "big tent" that was home to various ideological currents. She also said each district is different, and that Ocasio-Cortez's victory is "just a sign of the vitality of our party."

The Democratic Party needs to decide if it’s the party of @MikeBloomberg or the party of @Ocasio2018. For those of us that don’t want to see a second trump term, let’s hope they decide to be the party of Bloomberg. https://t.co/aSaD9xQ7z6— Daniella Greenbaum (@DGreenbaum) June 27, 2018

This is GLORIOUS:
"The socialist movement in America is real, it's dangerous... The election of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who openly despises the very system that makes America the greatest country in the world proves we must take every election seriously." —@stinchfield1776 #WednesdayWisdom pic.twitter.com/C25QwWsgRv— NRATV (@NRATV) June 27, 2018

The Democratic Party needs to look inward: is it the party of Michael Bloomberg or the party of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez?
The Democratic Party is like a 5 pack a day smoker. I know these things are bad for me and I really should quit them, but...

This is amazing. "People dunked on me but my article is actually good. Here it is again for your reconsideration." *gets dunked on even harder*
I wrote a thing. People here seem to predominantly disagree w it. I myself thought it was rather good. The Democratic party should figure out whether it wants to be the party of @Ocasio2018 or the party of Mike Bloomberg.

barnard has tons of great people and some suuuuper active campus leftie types. it just also has entitled rich kids (often overlapping of course), and some of those turn out to be "centrist" (republican) columnists, it's the way of the world
