public exposure*

```it will be interesting is she keeps her position, particularly if she doesn't need to run around to keep it.```
Exactly!
And that might be the point where she will wither in irrelevancy...

Her only threat in her district is a primary. If she can survive her first reelection which will test if she can stick around beyond her "exploit" that'll tell us a lot. Her next test could be running for New York Governor or an open Senate seat if it comes up.

exactly

If she doesn't show appeal beyond her district it will be a much tougher win for her.

it will be interesting to see if the disengaged wake up to boot her

or support her

she needs to actually do something rather than exist i believe.

she is, she's playing young and radical youth archetype

she got to where she is by making a splash. that is not necessarily good. Some people like a splash, but not everyone.

There's a reason we haven't had a president with only House experience on third resume in a very long time.

that's enough in a horrid crypt like the DNC

predicting what public interest wants from her is probably the best bet for predicting her survival of relivence

no, the DNC likes money

they suck with it so they constantly need more

i agree with tim that the right wing media highlighting cortez constantly is press for her

that kinda thing doesent just get new eyes on her, it also turns eyes that rather not vote for her onto her as an opposition canadate. if the nazis dont like her she has to be good, even if i dont agree with her

you dont want to see AOC getting the same voter base hillery got AND a fresh new voter base due to being a progressive that new minds are interested in

or maybe you do, who knows how bad she really is for politics right now

assume the worst

that's how wars are won

problem is a subjective perspective on worst

no, wars are won by lying to everyone

person with the best lie wins

well yeah, lying is just human nature unfortunately

there are not many wars in which the nations involved did not get involved because of lies to their populations

the public, generally, HATES war. without their support, you are not likely to win

well that should go without saying..

and, you need the enemy to think you are doing something you are not

people are want to hear things that make them happy, more than they want the truth

its not what people want to hear, its what will make them fearful

happy people don't want war.

fearful people want someone to make the big bad monster go away

they will put themselves in cages to do it

and that's why they are so desperate for anything that is spun to their warped worldview

look how many want war in syria now that trump is pulling out. they are totally out of it

humans are not rational, it's not about good or bad. just how it is

fear: "they will all be genocided!"

you gotta spin in the positive too for full effect, you want them hungry after the sample 😉

as a socialist, i prefer them hungry for food
