Yeah. And now we got a loving carpet bagger Perry Gershon (whose ads were laugh out loud terrible) trying to oust Lee Zeldin in NY1. None of the candidates were good. That Brendon Henry guy was good / Bernie-esque blue collar guy, but he didnt get enough signatures to be on the ballot and had basically no money.

The answer to this is that cynism is just another path for cowards to walk and avoid responsibility for the world around them.

She might not be able to do anything but fostering hope, setting an example for others to follow, creating a new path or enabling change aren't going to happen by just voting for the same thing over and over.

The Boeing 737-200QC is the undisputed workhorse of the skies.
Even if she gets to DC and sits on her hands for two years, I am absolutely fine to see someone primary an establishment democrat on a platform of “hey I ride the subway to work”. Because this poo poo will cause the Democratic Party to wake the gently caress up, hopefully, and it will remind people that voting makes a difference.

But she won’t sit on her hands. She doesn’t seem the type. I hope she’s a gigantic thorn in the side of the party.

Man the handwringing in that Time article Weigel linked to is something else. Personally I’d love to see a bunch more Ocasio-Cortez’s sweep the Pelosi types from office. They’ve been in for way too long and represent a party that’s calcified and unwilling to accept that the politics and culture have changed.

Think I’m going to have to do some phone banking and other volunteering around battleground states this fall.

Edit: I’ve read and reread this tweet several times in an attempt to make sense of it and have come to the conclusion that Trump is so narcissistic that he thinks every Democratic defeat is a personal victory for him.

It's almost like Representatives are elected to serve their local constituency and not a nationwide monolithic purpose at all times.

Looks like she stayed out of a lot of bullshit wedge issue stuff (guns, abortions) and went for poo poo directly impacting her constituents lives on the regular.

Republicans in Oklahoma may lose the governorship the way MD Democrats did in 2014. The current governor has a 25% approval rating and Republicans nominated someone from her administration to run in the fall (he has to overcome a runoff first, but there's no clear challenger at this point).
