AOC has just improves her ranking big time in the last few days. If she keeps this up she 'maybe' she has a shot at the White House (maybe, its going to be a long two years).
Think about it: A bernie Sanders type candidate not taking corporate PAC money is currently in the running for the White House! We saw with Mamdani they will throw everything at her. Will she falter? Hope not but feeling better than I have felt in a while.
Obvious question: How is she going to get anything past the gridlocked Congress and hostile Supreme Court? Obama often couldn't after the midterms, and it's much worse this time.
I'd really like to see a more centrist progressive in the White House in 2028. American politics is a pendulum. We should hope to dampen its amplitude, not intensify it. If we swing that far left, we'll swing even further right in 2032 or 2036.
