Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez 2024 megathread

[WD]

If Democrats are stupid enough to nominate a Defund the Police, M4A, Green New Deal, Pack the Courts Socialist from the east coast, it will be my pleasure to back the Libertarian Nominee, or perhaps a Republican who demonstrates clear differences from Trump.

Bye, Felisha.

Defund the Police ads ran all over the country, and they worked across the country, as evidenced by the House election results. Heck, one of the victims is (likely) your friend Max Rose. These sorts of socialist policies are losing, not gaining votes.

----------

Kendra Horn
Xochitl Torres-Small
Abby Finkenauer
Joe Cunningham
Debbie Mucarsel-Powell
Donna Shalala
Collin Peterson
Max Rose (likely)
Anthony Brindisi (likely)
Thomas Suozzi (possible)
Gil Cisneros (possible)
Harley Rouda (possible)
T.J. Cox (possible)

How many more victims must this socialist movement create before we realize that Dems are moving too far left and that sometimes, the base has to be told "NO"

My username is ironic. I hate Max Rose.

You sound like Abe Simpson yelling at clouds here, tbh. I'm more worried about human beings dying because they're murdered by cops and because they can't afford healthcare than I am about a few conservative Democrats losing because of policies they didn't even support. You need to follow the lead of swing district Representatives like Katie Porter who support single payer healthcare and aren't afraid to defend progressive policies and, oh yes, won reelection by 8 points in an R+3 district.

PVI is a poor and lagging indicator of partisan lean. It’s pretty Democratic leaning today. If Porter was in a district like Rose’s, would have lost. Seriously, where does this idea that Democrats can win conservative districts if they’re more left wing come from?

The last 2 Democratic Senators from Idaho weren't moderate heroes.

New York sent Al D'Amato to the senate for several years. Your point?
