Full title.........Democratic Whip Reins in Ocasio-Cortez: ‘She Has an Understanding That Not Everybody Has the District She Has’..............House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D., Md.) said he spoke with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and suggested the young Democratic star had received the message that not every district is as open as New York's 14th to far-left ideas.

Hoyer spoke with the 28-year-old by phone on Thursday and they had a "good conversation" where he told her to focus on helping Democrats win the majority in the House of Representatives, Roll Call reported.

"I think she has an understanding that not everybody has the district she has," Hoyer said.

Ocasio-Cortez, a democratic socialist who stunned the political world last month with an upset primary win over Rep. Joe Crowley (D., N.Y.) in New York's 14th district, has become an in-demand campaigner for progressives across the United States. She campaigned on such ideas as abolishing Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, a universal jobs guarantee, and forgiveness of all student debt.

Prior to running and winning a primary election for a Congressional seat she was a bartender, so I would have to admit that her math skills, at least as far as adding and subtracting are probably OK.

Remember; “the cash register has to be right at the end of the night”.

She knows what they like to drink and how much they tip. So does my favorite Hooters babe.

She needs to continue her campaign with the same level of narcissicism she’s exhibited this far. She’s a poster girl for socialist imbecility and needs to remain highly exposed on the front lines as the next democrat savior.

A match made in Hades for David “Camera” Hogg. They should hook up and raise a passel of half-brown half-wits.

She’s got enough money to win as is. The question is, “how hard is Crowley going to run on the Working Families ticket?”

I am so sick of politician campaigning outside of their state that my head could spin off.

As much as I hate government intervention, but we need a few new laws for elections:

1 - you can't campaign outside of your own state

2 - you can't start your campaign until 6 months before an election

3 - you get 1 million dollars to run your campaign.

if you can't get your message out in less than 6 months and 1 million dollars then you must not have much of a message.

I think the toothpaste is out of the tube, Steny.

Watch for the big makeover as a moderate.

An NBC article, said that the fissure in the Dem party was between progressives and moderates. Too funny.

If she starts talking about anything short of all the socialist ideas she has been touting, everyone will know she is lying.

I think the point in the title is that Dems in districts populated with normals are making it clear that radical lefty BS only flies when you’re in a district like hers - filled with enough non-contributing trash to keep it a safe “D” (regardless of the candidate or performance). The radical message doesn’t fly nationally, which is why Bernie had to be derailed by “superdelegates” - many of whom are big donors protecting their investments. Trump won a squeaker against Hillary; he would have trounced Bernie outside of NY and CA.

Donors buying influence with millions of dollars aren’t going to leave decision-making to a millennial barmaid.

After losing Congress with St. Obama in the White House (rendering him a powerless spectator), they know they can’t have her out there nationally. She serves a purpose: Getting low IQ Hispanics to vote “D” - nothing more. If they let her rant and rave publicly, they risk losing more BLACK voters - with whom Trump’s “America First” talk plays well. It can’t be concealed anymore that blacks lost a lot of jobs to Hispanics under the “open borders” policy, and now they’re facing record-low unemployment. Unlike Hispanics, most blacks ARE legally allowed to vote - and they could have delivered some key states to Hillary (but didn’t). Also, her message only plays well with some Hispanics - not the taxpaying, legally-voting type in Florida that the Dems need. The mass infiltration of Florida was supposed to make it a Hillary state, but as the talking heads said late on election night - who did all of these new Hispanic voters vote for? Trump already won about a third of Hispanic voters; this dope will only drive those numbers up. Dems fail to see that many immigrants to this country still want opportunity - not the socialism they’re often fleeing. They want to be the next Donald Trump!

Finally, while Hillary performed well in the usual Dem sh!tholes in 2016, Trump won with historic turnout everywhere else; “normals” showed up en masse to elect a pro-American president, and even more will show up if this rabid anti-American is center stage for the opposition. Don’t take my word for it; Pelosi knows it as well!
