Leftists favorite "both parties are the same" idiocy & "green new deal" & "defund the police" "abolish ICE" sloganeering are massive anchors that have been fatal to democrats in races across the country. They truly are the nazi enablers.
The "both parties are the same" crap suppresses the vote by discouraging people from showing up to vote Dem, while the brash sloganeering gives republicans motivation to come out and vote AGAINST Dems, even though most Dems are not advocating those absurd extremes.
Really the only thing AOC has ever accomplished is painting a huge target on the back of every Dem in even a semi-competitive race. EVERY GOP campaign associates the Dem opponent with that utter bullshit "Green New Deal" - which was not even a policy document.
She hasn't gotten a single fucking piece of legislation out of committee, yet she has set herself up to be the poison arrow of choice for GOP to hunt Dems.
"Always On Camera" is an apt AF moniker - she cannot keep her head down & do the work - she's addicted to the spotlight - a spotlight that gives her visibility with all the wrong people. Every republican in the country knows exactly who she is because she chases magazine covers.
And what do they hear her say? Not anything about working together to find solutions - they hear her say "NOT GOOD ENOUGH" "ALL OR NOTHING" "SOCIALISM ISN'T BAD."
And the GOP throws that garbage at moderate Dems, and it sticks, because politics for most is soundbites.

And what happens thanks to assholes like AOC? Dems suffer collateral damage like maybe losing the absolute superstar Lauren Underwood, who flipped a district from red to blue, and banged out all kinds of kick ass legislation that actually IMPROVED LIVES. https://twitter.com/cbschicago/status/1323845403394084864
Part of the @DNC autopsy on this election cycle needs to be an analysis of every GOP campaign to determine how many times "the squad" and "socialism" and "green new deal" and related quotes from leftists were employed to target the Dem opponent. Quantify that shit. Tally it up.
Oh look - Here's Oberwies hitting that big fat Green New Deal target that @AOC put on @LaurenUnderwood's back.

Now, thanks in large part to the preening and braying of an egotistical leftist who hasn't gotten SHIT done for the country, we very well may lose someone practical and level-headed and realistic, and PRODUCTIVE. Someone actually making PROGRESS in dealing with climate change.
If you subscribe to "Bernie woulda won" brain worms, you'd have to subscribe to the extrapolation that the reason Underwood loses to Oberweis is because she wasn't ambitious enough about ~the green new deal~ and ~Medicare for all~
Which is absolutely, unequivocally HORSE SHIT.

ICYMI, Lauren Underwood wrote legislation to lower the cost of insulin, AND she got the bill signed into law.
You know who DIDN'T write & get passed legislation lowering insulin cost? BERNIE FN SANDERS.
He tweeted about it though, so he ~woulda won~?

And here we have Biden taking NE02 but SHOCKER, the Bernie & AOC-endorsed leftist candidate, Eastman, gets spanked by the GOP. "Comrade Kara" as the NRCC dubbed her.
