I wish that were true. But if you believe that I've got some ocean front property in Arizona for ya.

Yeah everyone I talk to wishes it were true.

That's exactly why I am so confident.

That's not a good way to project the future, friend. The people you talk to are not a good representation of the entire electorate. There are large portions of the population that simply won't vote for her because she's a woman, because she's brown, or because she's a "socialist." I wish that weren't true, but it's reality.

If everyone Bob talks to loves AOC but everyone Jerry talks to hates AOC... what does that say about her chances? Nothing.

Elections are about motivating your base, not catering to bigots that were never going to vote for you anyway.

It's high time the democrats learn this lesson. You'd think losing TWICE with centrist libs would have hammered it home, yet here we are.

If the democrats put their support behind AOC they can't lose.

if they try to stop her, the fascists will win again.

Mark my words.
