AOC is literally the only person on that list that even has a shot of winning in the general. Half those people are genocide supporters. If you think AOC has no shot at winning then you haven’t been paying attention to the massive left shift happening in this country.
That shift isn’t even mainly happening among the loyal Democrat voters either. It’s happening among independent and non cult Republican voters.
Woke 2.0 is spreading. The main opposition to leftist momentum in this country is literally the Democratic party. If it runs anyone to the right of AOC it will lose to the couch again.
They don’t like her. They wouldnt support mamdani.
Didn’t stop Mamdani. Wont stop us. Just need to understand youre not running one of their campaigns. We can’t use their approaches and shouldn’t evaluate ourselves by their metrics.
The bad news is that too many Democratic voters aren’t paying enough attention to that part.
So we have to be loud and consistent in educating those around us. Comments online but even more important, inform people in person.
We are up against the Republicans, Israel, and corp Dems. They will do anything they can to stay in power.
But we’ve beaten them before and we can do it again. But it’s going to require a lot of effort and persistence on us who have critical thinking. Point out the blue maga when you see them. And inform people why. Aipac and pac donations is the most obvious one. But if you know of bills they supported you can throw some of those facts out too.
Provide easy concrete examples.
There is a human bias where when examples are simple and easy to recall, we actually give them more weight.
Work with that. Don’t bring up complex examples. Reduce them to simple ones if needed.
Good advice. I’m trying to think propagandistic with my posts, using tools, techniques, strategies, etc. but in a positive way, to spread truth instead of MAGA lies. We should be hijacking their successful strategies wherever possible, and turning them to offensive use against them.
What are the chances of the right having a scism and spoiling their own ballot (split MAGA and GOP)? If that were to look likely that would be the best time to have an independent progressive run. Would spoil the dems ballot too, but so long as we are stuck in the cycle of “I dont care who wins, so long as they lose” system, I dont see any way to break out of the two-party gridlock.
Running mate for someone who can. But I don’t think that person is on that list. Someone else suggested Kelly or Pritzker as middle of the road people with wider appeal who might be able to pull it off. I think it’s too early to pick a candidate.
AOC ain’t winning. It would be nice though.

And has been since 2008. Democrats don’t want to win if that means stepping left.
They don’t like her. They wouldnt support mamdani.
We need to get rid of the corrupt Dems. AOC is the right choice to help do that.
Didn’t stop Mamdani. Wont stop us. Just need to understand youre not running one of their campaigns. We can’t use their approaches and shouldn’t evaluate ourselves by their metrics.
They didn’t support Mamdani, until he won anyway. Then they ALL showed up at his inauguration, and acted like they were behind him all along.
I’m pretty sure the corp Dems still do not support mamdani
And yet they all showed up on HIS Inauguration Day to bask in HIS reflected glow. Politicians are all the same at their core.
Well good thing is we know who the blue maga is.

If only this happened…
Obama would have moved to the left if he gained seats in the first midterm.
This is pure hopium.
