 Buzz builds around Ocasio-Cortez’s future
by Caroline Vakil - 04/15/25 6:03 AM ET

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) is helping draw massive crowds across the country as part of a “Fighting Oligarchy” tour with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), fueling speculation about her future political ambitions.

The two progressives have been crisscrossing the country and holding rallies in cities, most recently generating crowd sizes of tens of thousands in Salt Lake City and Los Angeles.

The excitement around the tour has led to questions about Ocasio-Cortez’s future amid signs of Democratic frustration with the party’s current leadership.

“She represents the next generation of Democratic politics,” said Basil Smikle, former executive director for the New York State Democratic Party. 

“I think what she has been saying, either tacitly or explicitly, is that there needs to be a generational shift in the party’s leadership and its message to voters. She essentially did that in her race against Joe Crowley.”

Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez have been traveling to cities across the country in recent weeks, holding rallies predominantly in Western cities like Denver; Tucson, Ariz.; and Nampa, Idaho.

First, she needs to settle on which single fake accent to use. She's already trotted out black, latina (kind of a Rosie Perez thing) and whatever the heck it was she did at Coachella. Too confusing.

Her "next step up" is chuck the schmuck's Senate seat when it becomes available.

As soon as she declares her candidacy her poll numbers will shoot up so far above his that he'll announce his retirement to spend more time with his family.

And once she's in the Senate, she'll use it as a springboard (like obama) for higher office...

Besides, if he retires, he'll not only get his retirement, but the heat will be off for checking out how he got so much in asserts on a senator's salary.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Don't see how his retirement would make any "heat" come down.  In fact, he would lose his pulpit when offering any defense.

If Schmuck steps down, at least he'll have time to learn how to grill a hamburger.

The only buzz for AOC's future?

Probably has a variable buzz setting on the device.

AOC has less intelligence than Kamel-uh, and is even more bat shit crazy.    This wench is our best GOTV tool in history.  Wanna see GOP landslides?  Run her in 2032.
