She has a much better chance of unseating Schumer or Cuomo in 2022, not that she isn't the underdog in both of those cases. Still, though, Cuomo has proven vulnerable to primaries from the left from weaker candidates than AOC, and it's been one epic fail after another in the Senate with Schumer at the helm.
EDIT: I do wonder, though, who will assume Bernie's mantle in 2024. Seems to me that most of the Democrats prominent enough to run in 2024 who aren't establishment hacks are either quite young or Warren types or both, but it seems increasingly clear that there's more appetite for Bernie-style progressive populism than Warren-style pragmatic progressivism. Tammy Baldwin, Sherrod Brown, and John Fetterman are my best guesses for people who could make a play for this base, although it might end up being no one until 2028 or 2032.
