Kind of. She’s in a district full of Section 8, welfare recipients and illegals. Jesus Christ could run against her and still get wiped off the map, in all honesty.
She may be a rockstar, now, but her flame will quickly burn out. Heck, it already is. Problem these folks have is, you run your mouth about how you grew up on the street, trying to earn a buck. Then folks find out that she grew up in one of the most affluent towns, in one of the most affluent counties in the country, with her dad the architect. Who then went on to Boston University and worked for Kennedy, before returning to NY. So, it’s not really like she came up from the streets and walked the walk.
Before, she was just a really good looking staffer for Kennedy. Now, she’s going to be in there with the wolves.

Yes, she will just replace the retiring Luis Gutierrez, and a small, indolent voice in the House with no place to really shine and do anything effective. By beating Crowley, she has earned the enmity of the old-guard RATs who were looking forward to “Joe’s leadership” when Pelousey flames out. She will get an office under some stairwell for openers.
