“She was doing a lot of activist things during the day and working as a bartender or waitress at night to pay the bills. That might seem like failure for a college grad, but look where she is today.”
I don’t think she got where she is due to hard work, skill, or intelligence. It’s my opinion that she’s charismatic, and some very powerful people noticed. I think AOC is backed by some serious money.
In short, like the girl working at the drugstore who was noticed by a producer and became a starlet, AOC got lucky.
Good point... one could speculate about her not going to law school, etc...
Yes, and the left, as well as some RINOs have the audacity to say that Trump is demeaning the presidency..
I wouldn’t put Huntley and Brinkley in the same boat with Cronkite and Donaldson or today’s kooks like Stetler and Mika
You’re being put out to pasture, Tom.
Just like Chuck and Nancy. Teach Your Parents Well
has arrived.
Dang Markie Post was hot back then.
I thought the incident was actually an SNL skit.
A bartender who stole tips.

Not by intelligence, that's for sure. Or by patient and diligent study. She did get lucky.
But nobody really thought she was going to beat a top House Democrat, so whoever was staking her early on probably didn't give her much or expect her to get so far so fast.
So luck, and what you could call charisma. Also a lot of energy and an instinct to run to where the cameras are, and an uninhibitedness - a lack of shame or embarrassment.
Well Tommy it’s just the result of liberalism what did you expect.
“... an instinct to run to where the cameras are, and an uninhibitedness - a lack of shame or embarrassment.”
Basic qualities of a Democrat politician.
This! Brokaw is upset because Democrats can’t advance their agenda behind a moderate facade anymore, while portraying Republicans as right-wing extremists (And then Republicans cave under the guise of bipartisanship).
I use pizza instead of popcorn - gonna get fat watching this and when the cat fights start with all the radical dem “women” entering the primary race for 2020...
I like your style. Much more satisfying fare for watching the melee.
24 years in uniform taught me to grab the “comfort food” when the opportunity arose....
I can dig it.
Do you love it, do you hate it?
There it is, the way you made it.
He is a LEFTIST ALSO! He is just a quieter one!
