True, Ocasio the boxer WAS knocked out by Larry Holmes. However, this Ocasio is going to ruin as all before she gets justice for what she is advocating and may bring upon us.
We thought she is a radical but now we know she is mainstream Democratic. Right in the middle of where they are today.
Too bad the Democrats can’t rig Congressional primaries the way they rig Presidential primaries.

The "deserving" or "underserved" or "disadvantaged are deemed by their likeliness to vote for Democrats. The quid pro quo is largess/money in exchange for your votes.
Good article. Thanks for posting.
Affluent white professional men (and women) may finally wake up, and stop automatically voting for the Democrats. This would devastate the Democratic Party.
Old school dems thought these perky socialists were cute and would be great mascots.. until they discovered that they weren’t cute and were actually rabid attack dogs that will rip them to pieces to get through to the throat of democracy. LIke Che and Stalin, they would often have their former political ‘partners’ kneel in a dark alley while they joyfully capped them in the back of the head....
This is the morphing of the left’s “A” game.
Ocasio won the primary in one of the bluest districts in NY. I think she wins a seat, but doesn’t go much further.
This phenomena is just young communists replacing old communists. Same net result.
Perhaps we will be better off in the long run if we learn our lessons the hard way with the Ocasio-Cortez/Pressley faction actually in office and making policy and then we surgically remove the fantasy of government-supported Nirvana-for-all from our national consciousness once and for all.

Sorry, but I think the author is nuts if he thinks we would ever recover if enough Ocasio’s held office and enacted all of the policy’s that they truly desire. We need to take every opportunity possible to teach the error of their ways to those who would consider voting for these delusional fools BEFORE they get a majority into office.
I used to say this about Obama.
“...perhaps we will be better off in the long run if we learn our lessons the hard way with the Ocasio-Cortez/Pressley faction actually in office and making policy...”
If Romney/Ryan had been in just place holding, making life nice for congress (that’s who these guys work for-nit for we the people) Hillary would have had an easy time walking in.
We !and Trump) had enough of the America haters led by obama
Cute, but stupid.
How about some write-in campaigns?
Why doesn’t Crowley run as an independent like Lieberman did after losing a primary fight?
