A year ago the Dems were in good shape in WI. Heck, six months ago they were. What happened? Three straight months of AOC, AOC, AOC, and throw in Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib while you're at it. This is not a faaaar left country. Lauren Underwood and Abby Spanberger represent the median voter who swings Democrat, not AOC. Nancy Pelosi needs to get control of her caucus.

Right, because Elizabeth Warren is soooooo mainstream.  🙄
At least she doesn't call herself a socialist.

The bleakest part of the night is that WI is going to be ground zero in 2020, the D nominee campaign is going to call Arch and that "Scottie" guy getting their MA degree for GOTV, and they'll say they moved out of the state because D's lost some judge race in 2019.

Don't lose all hope. There's still a chance the Democrats could expand the Supreme Court and take federal action against gerrymandering at some point in the next decade.

Lauren Underwood is actually one of the most liberal Democrats, according to VoteView

She's a freshman, the youngest black woman in Congress, and unlike AOC, Pressley, Omar & Tlaib she actually won in a swing district that is 85% white. And as you said, she's pretty liberal according to VoteView.

But... wait for it...

"-- she's looking to reform the system, not replace it. "
