New York Primary: Ocasio-Cortez Defeats Incumbent Joe Crowley
- Thread starter legacyzero
- Start date
I think Gillibrand has the political guts to move left towards Ocasio-Cortez.
But sure, DEMS IN DIS ARRAY away.
So it's cool if people vote left?
I second this. Glenn is occasionally too much the civil libertarian and lawyer for me, but his heart, mind and skills are in the right place. He's even better than Rachel.

Sheesh.
She already rubs me the wrong way.
Reminding me of JD types.

It's a better, simpler policy than "hope the economy's good!"
this is what i don't get and dislike such folks. Gillibrand is left of me but she is a fighter. pelosi is very corporate but she is a fighter for americans. to portray them as corrupt is just...wrong. I cant trust this person sorry.

Awkward lol
DUMB AS FUCK LMAAAOOOOO
"Dont take chances to try and move the nation left! TOO RISKKYYYY"
Gillibrand's been moving left. The problem is that she's also in the Machine State of NY, and those things pull you in radically different directions.
This will be a big test for her politically going into 2019 and her presumed Presidential run.
This is one hell of a great outcome and should hopefully turn some heads in Washington D.C. on both sides of the aisle that a reckoning is coming.
You did good tonight, New York.
You did good tonight, New York.
User warned for: insults
I literally said "you can and should try" you stupid fucking moron.
If Gillibrand loses, so be it. I don't think this is as much disarray as people are making it out to be
The year Cantor lost (2014) the GOP won the House popular vote by 5.7%. The wave's coming.
She's not going to lose her primary or re-election. She's obviously running for President in 2019/2020.
Nice. Thought that felon cred could have made him more popular with republicans!
It's certainly not simple at all.
Universal Basic Income would actually be better and simpler, instead of trying to figure out the logistics of meaningless make-work jobs for tens of millions of people while automation is taking hold.
Nah I think she has a valid point.
Also lol Trump.
That's not how it works. That's not how any of it works!
That debate that Crowley called for really screwed him over. She ran circles around his ass. She's someone people like me can identify with. Working, scraping to get by, having to take care of her family, etc. People can relate to that.
Oh, and they tried to screw her by movie polling places in certain areas or something like that. She tweeted about it a few weeks back. Glad that tactic didn't work.

For one, she is exclusively a Justice Democrat. So get rubbed wrong, I guess.
Two, well, Funny how Gillibrand was soooooo for Women running for positions. Whoops
Also, this attitude is Petty AF. And she's right.
It's like bragging the wounded bobcat that was about to attack you was defeated by the even more hungry wolverine
Greenwald sucks but it would've been great for her to get some recognition.
While i agree, a jobs program is probably a far easier sell than UBI, given how reticent this country is with expanding its welfare programs....
The "[candidate] WANTS TO GIVE PEOPLE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY BY DOING NOTHING" ads literally write themselves (hell I just did write one)
Jesus fucking Christ.
I'll do the proper and fair thing and wait to see how she acts when governing/trying to accomplish shit, but I won't get my hopes up if she's associated with those clowns.
Oh for sure, but Americans really want the 'dignity of work' and it's a better message
I can deal with loss, dude. Besides, I tolerate some Dems, but if they started talking like Manchin, then they wouldn't get my vote.
