WR,

Ocasio-Cortez weighs a new primary target: Hakeem Jeffries
Jeffries, the newly elected No. 5 Democrat in the House, has drawn criticism from the left since the party's leadership elections.

That didn't take long, if it is true. Again, she needs to keep her head down for a while and learn the process. She will need friends to get her programs through and get good committee assignments. She said she is about compromise. This doesn't seem to be about compromise. Watch actions more than words.

That is youth. Very idealistic.

But she is trying to do the right thing as she sees it. I think once she is in the house the rest of the women will hone her rough edges.

She is only guilty of trying to tell the truth that she thinks we need to hear.

She is a female Woody Guthrie-lol. She is authentic and sincere. We have had much too little of that.
