    A) That's gotta suck. Thoughts and prayers.

    B) That's possible, although my Leftism doesn't really gain any succor from inside the Beltway. Even without SIP, nobody in Alexandria or Arlington is coming to the May Day parade. The closest you get to the "Left" inside the Beltway is a handful of Scoop Jackson Democrats who kept the faith and didn't go full Wolfowitz in the 90s, and stayed at Brookings writing about inequality. But Thomas Piketty is not walking through the door of the Reston Wegman's. For that I have to rub shoulders with disaffected academics in the Baltimore burbs and angry black intellectuals who have somehow managed not to be taken out by the klansmen in the VA highway patrol. I don't know the meth lab Bernie Bros you seem to, I will give you that. Mine are all sequestered in the LSE library tut tutting over obvious methodological errors by Karl Marx and mainlining Adorno and Gramsci. And those guys are pragmatists who make Jacobin look superficial.

      Bad that if you need the bland white bread vote, you got Joe for that. You need someone on the ticket that would appeal to other demographics.

      Young, Hispanic or African American, from the south or southwest would be perfect.
      What kind of cheese are you planning to put on top?

          Nuke the South, they're gone forever.

          The Southwest is the future but the folks here have pretty much convinced me that right now Arctic Appalachia (PA, OH, MI, WI, MN) is where we have to win. So give me somebody those people will suckle to. If it's a white woman, meh, the blacks are actually balls deep in this, they're not going anywhere. I'm a lot more worried about flyover couch potatoes than soul sisters staying home.

              I know they're going to try, but they're going to try with AOC, too.

              My hope is that if these Members' constituents were aware enough to get them in there over whatever tepid wastes of space the DNC preferred, they're strong enough to keep them there when The Man comes gunning.

                  Omar will control that seat for as long as she wants to.

                    Is it a strongly Muslim district?

                    They will certainly run an Uncle Tom against her.

                      Her district covers basically all of inner city Minneapolis, UMn, and a few inner ring burbs, where most of MSP's immigrants, minorities, and young "woke" whiteys live. She's not going anywhere.

                          Look, I'm a proud member of the Ivy League elite working in the deep state bureaucracy. But if you think rubbing shoulders with academics and intellectuals gives you insight into the minds of the other 95% of the Democratic Party, I'll have some of what you're smoking.

                              Doesn't make my point any less valid, that hobknobbing in Academia is no more relevant to understanding the average voter than being in the C-suite of a fortune 500 company.
