Oh Yeah, Possible Primary Challenge Against Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez 
New York Democrats appear ready to primary the Democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in Congress if she fails to get along with them, and some names are being floated, reports the Daily Caller.

According to a report in The Hill, one House Democrat has tried to persuade members of the New York delegation to urge local colleagues of theirs from the Empire State to challenge 29-year old New York Democratic Representative in the upcoming 2020 elections. 

“What I have recommended to the New York delegation is that you find her a primary opponent and make her a one-term congressperson,” the Democratic lawmaker, who requested anonymity, told The Hill.

The member added, “You’ve got numerous council people and state legislators who’ve been waiting 20 years for that seat. I’m sure they can find numerous people who want that seat in that district.”

  1. Let me guess. She's not contributing her fair $hare to the combine.

    1. Perhaps she’s getting too much boob tube time, no pun intended, at least not initially.
