CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten expressed surprise on Monday at how closely Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez trails behind Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom in 2028 polls.
Newsom leads the pack with 21% among registered voters who are Democrats or Democratic-leaning Independents, while Ocasio-Cortez is in third place with 12%, according to a Yahoo/YouGov poll conducted from Aug. 29 to Sept. 2. Enten, on “CNN News Central,” noted that Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders lagged significantly more against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2014.

Could AOC even win the Lost Territory of Minnesota?(without cheating)
AOC is becoming whatever passes for the “voice of reason” within the Democrat Socialists.
Which is still a far cry from what is generally understood as being a “voice of reason”. Just only slightly less obsessed with the “remaking of America” than Zohan Madmani or Ilhan Omar.

He’s surprised that someone who hates the Jews, hates Israel, supports Hamas, has NO idea where Gaza is, wants open borders, and single payer healthcare is popular amongst commies, please, the majority of the Dem party believes that
that isn’t how I read that video.
He’s shocked that she’s within 10 points of Newsome
Any debates of AOC online?
The Democrats are a party of crazy.
Among them, AOC actually seems somewhat sane.

Here is my feeling....
The Left is either going to run someone who can’t win as a sacrifice (ie Humphrey) or go even further left to “send a message”.
The Deep State is now fully exposed so they can’t run a Ross Perot to split the GOP vote.
I’m betting they “send a message” with AOC-ButtBoy ticket.
I’m pretty sure the base will not allow Josh Shapiro to run as this is their only chance of winning.
Democrat primary voters are a bunch of whackos.
AOC is not “liberal”.
AOC is not “progressive” either.
She describes herself. She has the right to decide who she is. She calls herself a democratic socialist.
I’m still eating my hat that the DNC didn’t draft her for the nomination last time. (And she was born in October 1989, so she would have met the age requirement — God help us all.)
Newsome, Harris, or AOC... at the moment, any of those 3 should be easy to crush in 2028... but that’s a long way away, of course.
You misspelled extreme.
With the issue of Palestine independent state still around next several years, Shapiro has no pray to win primaries... He should just switch to Republican...
