    I'm not an AOC fan by any means …. but she was one of the better performers of the day - solid , on topic questions. Didn't even use all her time - was straight to the point.

    Most of the others were just playing political games ….

    Yes , its sad that the rest of them didn't ask pertinent questions

    Critics: Practice what you preach.
    AOC: I'm living in the world.

    :confused:

    What is the Republican Obsession with this woman???

    The way they go after her and watch her every move, I would swear she is running for president. She was even discussed at CPAC... WTH???

    Does she scare the Republican Party that much?

    On Greg Gutfeld’s show on Fox News, commentator Katherine Timpf lit into the 29-year-old congresswoman from New York over her championing of the Green New Deal, quipping that the climate-change initiative might even lead to cannibalism.

    “I don’t want to eat people, Greg, and I don’t want people to eat me,” Timpf said.

    “AOC, do you want people to eat you?”

    For the same reasons a child's magician waves his arms around.

    Its fairly obvious. The Republicans are trying to make her the face of the party. The more one side can push the extremist nature of the other side allows them to rationalize their extreme nature. Just like some try to paint all Trump voters as racist and deplorables.

    There could be something scandalous...or not. But always suspicious if its being reported by far right wing "news" sources and quoting right wing ethics (oxymoron?) monitoring groups...
