nothing wrong with bar tending..... getagrip_already Jan 2020 #89

Because she does not know True Blue American Jan 2020 #92

None of that explains why you denigrated bartenders. nt. Mariana Jan 2020 #97

Well if this is true, she just got her own nose out of joint.. she is attacking Peacetrain Jan 2020 #2

Saying she has fundamental disagreements w/ Biden is not an attack. n/t Dennis Donovan Jan 2020 #3

She is suggesting he's not a real Democrat. DemocratSinceBirth Jan 2020 #5

She said they're different Democrats. n/t Dennis Donovan Jan 2020 #14

Which isn't all she said. TwilightZone Jan 2020 #8

++++, she should show some real knowledge, like what Gore R B Garr Jan 2020 #105

It was his party GemDigger Jan 2020 #19

Whose party will it be in 10 years or 20 or 30? LonePirate Jan 2020 #43

If the party goes that far left it will destroy itself. Dems are more moderate than one thinks Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #57

Thank you. Some here must be thrown off by those 'arabic numbers' empedocles Jan 2020 #110

She seems to want instant gratification. GemDigger Jan 2020 #61

It won't be her party...I doubt she is still serving. Demsrule86 Jan 2020 #67

I agree with AOC. True Blue American Jan 2020 #96

I never supported her in the first place. nt Kahuna7 Jan 2020 #4

I did at the very beginning..but her actions quickly changed my mind Thekaspervote Jan 2020 #59

Saying you don't share the same views as another politician is an attack? Autumn Jan 2020 #6

Please see post five. DemocratSinceBirth Jan 2020 #7

She's talking about the Congressional Progressive Caucus. But she's right. If we had more parties Autumn Jan 2020 #27

She's sharp. Autumn Jan 2020 #39

She never misses a chance to attack the Democratic Party or it's members... George II Jan 2020 #50

Sorry. I just don't see pointing out where one differs from other people is an attack. Autumn Jan 2020 #56

You should read that Politico article, she said a lot against Biden, Democrats, and the CPC. George II Jan 2020 #60

If what she said hurts your feelings contact her and demand an apology. You know how to contact Autumn Jan 2020 #62

I have contacted her, as have many people in the 14th District (I no longer live in Queens). George II Jan 2020 #68
