Ocasio won because she is q political savant

Is a stealth entry for the succiest lib galaxy brain take yet

running a year-long door to door grassroots campaign does in fact make you a political savant in a party where most candidates make a speech once a week and put out ads where they stare into the camera and talk about datacenters

It's very simple: Cynthia is going to win because the pundits think that there's no way she will, and the pundits are wrong about everything.

counterpoint: better things aren't possible and AOC was an outlier. Either that or in this hellscape timeline Joe Crowley is gonna win on his 3rd party ballot

Until recently, the go-to way to let others know your ideas were Smartest was to announce that you were fiscally conservative, but socially liberal.

However, I don't see this particular proclamation as much anymore. What are the latest developments in sorcerous succ incantations?
