Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the biggest star in the Democratic Party, and she has been ever since she unseated Rep. Joe Crowley in a surprise primary upset in May. That her win didn’t, in the final analysis, launch a wave of leftist primary victories only goes to show what a phenomenon she personally is.
Not everyone shares her brand of politics, of course, but her constituency has exploded beyond the initial set of ideologues who powered the challenge to Crowley because of her incredible wit, charisma, social media savvy, and basic political smarts.
In a year when moderate incumbents generally didn’t lose primary challenges from the left and in which Our Revolution endorsees failed to flip a single GOP-held House seat, AOC constantly dominates the conversation — living rent-free in the heads of conservatives, racking up magazine profiles and Twitter followers, engaging supporters on Instagram in a heretofore unprecedented way, and pulling back the curtain on some of the seamier aspects of “business as usual” in the US Congress.

She’s exactly the President the country deserves.
Who says she can’t? The Constitution? Pshaw! That old thang? Obunghole proved that we can ignore that with impunity.
The author, Matt Yglesias, has a long record proving himself to be one of the most foolish of all Leftards, and there is plenty of competition for that title.
We needs lots of whatever it is he’s smoking or drinking! Whatever it takes to make us all forget we ever heard this name. Those folks who like whatever it is she’s selling can buy an airline ticket to any socialist country of their choosing and leave us alone. We’ll even pitch in to help with the cost.
And we thought Hillary - Maxine Waters - Sheila Jackson Lee - Nancy Pelosi - Kamala Harris - Barbara Boxer (gone but not forgotten), Barbara Lee, Elizabeth Warren, Kirsten Gillibrand and many, many more of the female persuasion were the worst the dems had to offer but we were wrong. We ain’t seen anything yet!
Why is old Diane Feinstein being so quiet lately? Took a drubbing over her shenanigans at the Kavanaugh hearing and decided to crawl back in her cave? We will never be that lucky!
BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
SNORT!!!!
FOTFLOL!!!!!!!
Then they're dumber than she is.
Vox is a huge waste of time. This just proves it.
There are parts of the Constitution I don’t like, either. For example, I’d like to change the amendment against cruel and unusual punishments so it would not apply to politicians. :-)
It’s ridiculous that the commie Matthew Yglesias can’t be stripped of all constitutional protections and shipped one-way to North Korea.
Nope,it sure is not.
“because of her incredible wit, charisma, social media savvy, and basic political smarts. “
this vox article just HAS to be a reprint from The Onion ...
Cortez - Hogg election 2032.
She’s cute at 29. At 33 she will be on her way to burrita senorita!!
Hey, none of you-all is asking who her mystery partner really is and where s/he comes into the picture.
Who is her partner?
Yeah she’s cute, if she spent the night, you will be stuck with her in a morning.
we elected a pro islamic muslim with little life experience, she is a great democrat president. All hail the latina.
I think it’s ridiculous that those who aren’t qualified to run for President get to run for Congress and the senate...could put an unqualified person in the chain of succession...
AOC, The next Obama
Another know-nothing acting like she knows everything
“If you like your insurance you can ....”
He’s got that faggoty “Pajama Boy” smirk on.
She’s well equipped for a job at the Moonlite Bunny Ranch.
