Of Primary Concern

[Blind Gossip] By now you are probably aware that politicians may say one thing in front of the camera… but say something completely different behind closed doors.

In the case of one U.S. Representative, her colleagues have a little surprise planned that she knows nothing about.

She is a nightmare. We’re going to primary her out. We are actively looking at candidates now!

Basically, what that means it that although her party colleagues will publicly say that they support her, they are quietly looking for someone to run against her in the next primary election.

It won’t be just a name on a ballot, either. It will mean channeling donations to the other candidate, shifting millions of dollars in staffing, marketing, and administrative support, and a stealth negative campaign against the current U.S. Representative.

Yes, it’s all very sneaky.

No, they have not selected anyone yet.

[Optional] What do you think of her? Do you think her party will succeed in ousting her? Please keep your comments civil.

    More than one -starting with the three stooges Justice Democrat wackos who were picked from a casting call.

  3. Jason L says

    AOC is a blithering moron who can’t get her branches of government straight. Her Green New Deal is a joke and Feinstein rightfully called out those kids who were brainwashed by their parents. But AOC’s real sin is sinking the Amazon deal. Her district is next door to where it was going to be located and tens of thousands of six figure jobs were lost. That will make you enemies fast.

  4. spoofbyrd says

    It is not AOC. She is a rising star and a Mill magnet ! It is Omar but how the hell are they going to be able to Primary her when she is in a District composed mostly of Middle Eastern Moslems who will definitely practice tribal loyalty ?

  5. hortensie says

    Hope it is neither AOC or Omar. Especially not Omar. One of the few with a functioning brain.
    Since the woman is wearing a red dress, I reckon it is someone from the Republican Party.

  6. IrishEyes says

    Omar can’t be Primried because she was elected by the people of her no go zone- they would need to change district boundaries before that is possible- though I have no doubt this will eventuay occur.

  7. amagod121 says

    GretaG, I wish I could “like” your comment 1,000 times! Our children do not understand the repercussions of the road AOC wants to lead them down. They think everyone will have more “free stuff,” be happy with each other & the birds will chirp brightly. Instead, our kids won’t get the freebies, they will be chained to paying for them forever, with their earning base eroding precariously, some people will continue to despise them, and the birds will be silent from lack of human feeding.

  8. Fiscally conservativebutnotracist says

    It makes me so happy to see so many people can see these extremists for who they really are, if you follow mainstream media every non white, non straight, non male person adores them but that’s not my experience in real life at all, keep up the good work troops 🙂

  9. PGreen says

    AOC. I would think it more likely that the Republicon party would issue a hit on her for speaking the truth.

  10. charlene2345 says

    AOC. She seems to have zero idea about real life, economics, politics, or anything really.

  11. aaronxp says

    AOC she is beyond crazy, only early 20’s and teenagers would vote for her… anyone with a brain can see she is beyond nuts and an actual threat for the US economy, the republican party is pushing her big time because she makes Trump look like the sanest person on the planet, she and Omar, Chuck Schumer with infanticide and Pelosi are destroying the Democratic party, Ive heard rumors the party is more than fractured and defending these two lonebags its becoming almost impossible.

  12. PatioPrincess says

    LOL, they’ve got two complete morons on their hands:

    Moron #1 -The stunningly ignorant Angela Ocasio Cortez (Occasional Cortex)
    this one is as dumb as a box of rocks. So much so that it’s fun to watch and wait to see what will come out of her mouth next.

    Moron#2-Militant Muslim, Lesbian Ilan Omar. This one is smarter than the dipstick mentioned above, but is so militant that she’ll somehow manage to get stoned to death by her own crowd of religious idiots.

    More votes…

  13. Steffy44 says

    AOC or Omar. An idiot or a racist. Take your pick. I’m sure Aunt Nancy wishes they were both gone.

  14. Mumumumu says

    Ilhan Omar

    As a Muslim she hates Israel. The problem for her is that she lives in a country that loves Israel.

    She’s DOA.

  15. Mischief Girl says

    AOC
    She’s a threat to the status quo. Pelosi and her ilk (a.k.a. the status quo) will want her out as soon as possible.

  16. Mischief Girl says

    Whoever this is, this is a shame. For one thing, yet again subverting democracy, with a powerful few deciding which way the political landscape will go.

    The DiFi’s and McConnells and Pelosi’s of the world need to RETIRE and move on. They play games while Mother Earth slowly dies from climate change. They don’t care–they’ll be dead. And they seriously believe that with enough money their offspring will survive.

  20. PrincessPJ says

    Omar from MN?

    DFL will get rid of her; she does not represent MN well, she does not represent the DFL well either; her comments are incendiary, and I would go so far as to say xenophobic and anti-Semitic

  24. pawpaw says

    God I hope it’s A Ocasio- Cortez
    She is not smart enough to make it. She will be ousted

  25. aaakm30 says

    Ilhan Omar

    They might succeed! I mean she doesn’t take corporate donations so she’ll be alone against the DNC machine. It’s a shame they don’t participate in discourse and would rather oust anything different/other. They’re no better than any bigots on the other side.

  27. cho555 says

    By the picture, guessing Tulsi Gabbard. Also because she’s not a firm party person and the Dems don’t want to look like they don’t support a female candidate.

  29. mittenkitten says

    Obviously Omar or AOC.

    They can primary her, but these ladies were elected for a reason. Just like people elected Trump for a reason. Both parties need to address their outer fringes.

  31. FILMGAL says

    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The party may be able to oust her if they come up with enough information to leak that may show her to have hypocritical actions for a “progressive” candidate.

  32. pitbull says

    Ilhan Omar – Her anti-Semitism comments about Jews are the embarrassment of the party that claims to represent people of all races.

  37. hwkgirl1 says

    I’m gonna guess AOC. A lot of stuff has come out since elected, including some illegal shady business with her campaign manager. I don’t like her at all and I’m a leftie. She’s a pot stirrer and doesn’t walk the walk she says she does.

  38. dawnray says

    Ilhan Omar. She is a nightmare and a liability. Dems made a mistake with her, not realising exactly how radical and anti-American she really is. AOC at least has comedy value and is popular with the liberal NYC crowd. Besides AOC will probably run into trouble on her own with her campaign finance scandal but Omar is dangerous, has a shady immigration history, and is too much of a liability. Her anti-Semitic views are nasty enough but she has now started to turn her guns on Obama, the demi-God!

  40. martinameh says

    Elizabeth Warren. Dems are failing. We need a new party founded by Bernie. This isn’t working.

  43. CuriousGeorgette says

    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez or whatever the heck her name is.
    And I do not like her very much at all.

  45. Brunettetalk says

    Ileana’s Omar who seems to have Tourette’s syndrome in her criticism of Israel. What a toxic presence. The Dems must want her out NOW.

  47. Baileygirl says

    AOC.
    I think she is a hypocrite and as dumb as a box of rocks.
    Yes, they will oust her. I will only take the Dems who stayed home the last election to face a future with AOC’s air-headed ideas in it as in “no airplanes” and taxing everyone to the hilt to pay for her socialist dreams to throw her out.

  48. ninanicole says

    Elizabeth Warren. I’m liberal, but I think we would be in for 4 more if she were put up as the D candidate.

  50. annabelle77 says

    This has GOT to be Andrea Ocasio-Cortez. She is an absolute disaster. Still, I will miss the humor she added to my daily news reports. She’s a walking, talking Saturday Night Live skit. 🙂

  52. jrizzo says

    AOC. I love her and I think she’s a breath of fresh air but I was worried about this happening. I think that’s really * up, though. And I’m a Democrat lol

  53. mare311 says

    Probably Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. I think she has great ideas but she is a bit too liberal for most of the politicians in the party. Conservatives like to focus on her so all of her mistakes are more noticeable because she gets so much attention.

  54. skrigs829 says

    Ilhan Omar

    She’s openly anti-Semitic and pro-ISIS. That’s a problem. AOC is not bright but her arrogance will be her un-doing. Omar seems far more messy for her colleagues.

  55. nowyoutellme says

    Ilhan Omar. She’s an idiot but the people who elected her are worse. Democrats have to find a way to oust her or they’ll never recover.

  56. 2 cents says

    A. Occasional-Cortex.
    Her colleagues would be happy to sacrifice her public credibility…arguably, a scenario could play out that sees her go from phenomenon to pariah within a few months.

  59. lahteb says

    Ilhan Omar or AOC

    I’m inclined to say Omar. AOC is helping to push the party leftward, which upsets some, but she hasn’t repeatedly caused offense.

  60. sunshine702 says

    Rep. Ilhan Omar

    Those AIPAC comments just cut her own throat. Arrogant and dumb. Tearing the party apart

  63. Geniecat says

    AOC? I’m not into politics, so I’m just guessing. They probably will oust her if no one likes her, and they have enough money and influence to do it.
    EVERYONE in politics is rotten and corrupt. If this lady is making her political colleagues’ lives a nightmare, good for her. She’s the true change we need. Sadly, judging by this blind, she will probably be ousted. I personally believe that it’s impossible to run for office and maintain integrity, so I don’t think this lady is…

  64. GretaGuesses says

    Alexandria Ocrazio-Cortez

    Republicans ignore her at your own risk. I think she’s thicker than mud, but I think she’s well indoctrinated and is likely backed by George Soros, or someone of his Marxist ilk. I think she’s a product of our education system which touts Socialism as utopia and Communism as ‘not that bad’. I imagine that there will be more and more Marxist leaning younger people who will support her. We who were actually taught about the horrors of socialism & communism are…

    • GretaGuesses says

      We’re getting older and will be marginalized, dismissed, then we’ll be dying off. Marx even said that Socialism is just a stepping stone to Communism. True Socialism looks like Venezuela. Leftists tout Denmark, Sweden, etc as ‘Socialist’. They aren’t. They’re very strong capitalist countries, with less government interference in business, so business thrives and employees earn good wages. They pay high taxes to support programs that help, but are free-market capitalist countries.

  65. prunetracy says

    AOC, because the Democratic Party is just a party of wishy washy centrists now and are afraid of anything remotely to the left of center. She is extremely popular with her actual constituents, though, so it won’t work.

  66. snobby says

    AOC

    Dems need to have a back bone. To oust her so early would show that they’re not the party of the people as they claim.

  69. beachchick218 says

    AOC. She’s a dangerous nutcase. For someone with a college degree, she is extremely stupid. I truly hope her hypocritical days in politics are numbered.

  73. luddite2 says

    Most likely Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who has threatened the party leaders, showed an inability to grasp simple economics, and played a major role in the loss of Amazon’s HQ from NYC (causing major loss of $ to Dem stronghold & its unions). I think her name recognition within her district will make it hard to push her out.

  74. Appleton says

    Elizabeth Warren

    She’s ok, but every interview or speech I’ve seen gives me the impression that she’s one of those people with a really harsh personality. Not everyone likes that. Who knows? Maybe they will find a better candidate.

  76. gailpow says

    AOC from NY.
    The long dark hair in the photo is a hint.
    She is pretty extreme and is pulling the Demo-cRATS in the wrong direction.

  77. nycmadam says

    AOC

    I like her in general, but she is very disruptive and doesn’t seem to be much of a team player. The Dems need to be united to strengthen their hold in Congress.

  83. amagod121 says

    2 great choices for this blind: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) or Ilhan Omar. I think it’s about AOC because she fought against Amazon putting its headquarters in Queens. She lost the state of NY 25k jobs plus all of the taxes generated. Oh my.I

    To be honest, both AOC & Omar scare me. I see a spot-light loving Marxist tyrant in AOC & a virulent anti-Semite in Omar. I guess I’m old school but I don’t see either one as being an appropriate choice for Representative.

    • yaddayadda says

      Maybe. New Yorkers didn’t want Amazon though, and the Virginia deal is better for the people who live there, by putting their money into educating people they’ll win from that deal two times over. You’re right, AOC loves the spotlight, but I think she’s also a good person trying to help. The last guy got his seat through nepotism, and acted like a king. AOC just wants to make America work better, like Northern Europe. When you go there you can see how poor we are here. It’s really sad.

    • boyzmom says

      @yaddayadda Except that Northern Europe (the Nordic countries that AOC likes to point toward) are not socialist countries. They are capitalist, but with bigger taxes. They have free markets, don’t have minimum wage laws, allow school choice, and basically allow strong unions to organize for their employees. Socialism is when government controls business and by and large becomes a welfare state…basic politics and economics of which AOC knows nothing. Ignorance at its scariest.

  86. zappy2050 says

    AOC. I hope they get rid ris of her ASAP. This was a HUGE!!!!!! mistake. They need to get rid of her before she causes long lasting damage. Hopefully they can find a sure bet. As a fellow Democrat this woman is a nightmare.

  87. lovefifteen says

    Probably AOC or Omar Ilhan. I don’t think they’ll be successful at primarying AOC. She seems to be quite popular.

    • noseyabby says

      I think it is AOC, not Omar (Pelosi covered for her when they passed the Resolution) and did not call her out on Antisemitism).
      Pelosi? They are going to take her out the House in a pine Box. She wields to much power.

  95. andilou says

    ALexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

    I’m sure they’ll do whatever it takes to get what they want. Politicians always do.

  96. boyzmom says

    AOC

    I think she’s slowly ruining the Democratic Party with her socialist/communist agenda. They’d be wise to do this.

  99. CaintGetEnuff says

    AOC
    She needs to slow down. She makes Maxine Waters look sane! Her Green New Deal is irrational, unachievable and just plain silly. Besides, she treats the established members of ‘her’ party disrespectfully and it pisses them off – big time. Ask Dianne Feinstein!!!

  100. High Steppa says

    Either Ocasio-Cortez or Omar. You can bet that Nancy Pelosi is pissed as hell at these two. They are sucking all the oxygen out of the room with their outrageous statements and causing in-fighting in the Dem party.

    • Mama Bear says

      They are both perfect examples of the Democratic Party. Moronic ideals and the ignorance is astounding.

  101. bertwheeler says

    Either A.O.C. or Omar. I’m going with the former.

    A.O.C. seemed interesting during her campaign, but now comes off as a high school student who thinks she has all the answers. But I give her credit, she takes zero crap from anybody. I bet Trump secretly admires her gumption.

    • Jumerandy says

      No, she blathers on about stuff and doesn’t fact check anything she says. And yells at people on Twitter when they call her out on her many errors. She seems erratic and combustible.. She will flame out.

  103. thebutlerdidit says

    Alexandria Ocasio Cortez. I’m actively involved in politics, so I have heard from some of the insider Neolib establishment types that they HATE her. She made the mistake of going up against people like Tom Perez, Chuck Schumer & Nancy Pelosi, who strongly supported the guy she primaried & had intended that he become 3 in line in the party so she screwed them over.

    • Mills007 says

      This! I believe so to, i think she is fighting the “Old white (fe)male in power” standard in a way they have not seen before….
      Also i think they will find a way to TRY to control her…. (hope it doesn’t work)

      Omar will just fail on her own, for the time she is there..

  104. perspective4509 says

    Kamala Harris. A lot of people seriously don’t like her for some reason

  107. hunkydory says

    Ilhan Omar. She lacks political polish. A shame because she had a lot of support initially. She must have been inspired by Trump’s crazy ways.

  109. lalove says

    I feel like this is AOC and I hope it’s not.

    She’s an intelligent young woman who’s showing that you can come from anything to be a politician on the big stage.

    • yo1774 says

      No, it’s not her. Maybe she irks some of the sacred cows on the party but she is popular and she is the kind of candidate they need.
      On the other hand Ilhan Omar is causing trouble everytime she opens her mouth (or writes on her twitter)

    • Steffy44 says

      Bwaaaaa intelligent and AOC are never used in the same sentence. She’s dumber than a box of rocks.

    • fufufrankie says

      It’s not her. It’s Ilhan Omar, the Rabid Jew-hater. Not shockingly, she is consumed with irrational hatred for Jews and Israel. Beware of others like her and take a closer look at those who she surrounds herself with. More of her Judeophobia will be exposed.

    • Cricket03 says

      She has a good personality and is likeable.

      But she is not intelligent.

      What do you mean come from anything? She grew up privileged. Very wealthy. Lived in one of the wealthiest counties in New York.

    • bec215d says

      She is intelligent and ambitious but if she were a 40 yr old white guy or more average-looking woman, she wouldn’t be getting the airtime she gets. 2 mos into ANY job, you are not an expert, let alone when you lack any economics and policy experience. I wish her well but wish she’d do her homework before touting policies she can’t defend.

    • gldstwmn says

      The AOC train can’t be stopped. The Dems know that. She is good for the party. Omar on the other hand is a detriment. I wouldn’t be sad to see her go.

    • I Am PunkA says

      Her comments again today were terrible. She lacks an ability to use nuance and thinks a hammer is always the tool.

      Critique failed corporate policies. Fair target. Don’t rip capitalism. Rip it’s current application. Regardless, socialism is not the answer. Venezuela says hello.

    • BlueHerons says

      It’s this. The powers that be want to get her out before she does any more damage or divides the party any further.

      Belittling Obama was the nail in her coffin.

      It’s only a two year term so they can get her out before any more harm is done.

    • mostlylurker says

      either omar or aoc, id be happy to see either go for both similar and different reasons..
