       🦠 💉Pestilence is Praxis  🧬 🧟‍♂️ Retweeted Michael Tracey

      As this tweet shows, being a contrarian does not qualify someone to make electoral predictionshttps://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1011453825289523200 …

      Not to be a debbie downer, but everyone who's invested in this Ocasio-Cortez/Crowley race has set themselves up for disappointment. Power of incumbency and party machinery are just too insurmountable in that district. Happy to be proven wrong, but I highly doubt it

      I said I'd be happy to be proven wrong, and I am. I don't think there was anything particularly "contrarian" about being skeptical that one of the most powerful political machines in the country could be upendedhttps://twitter.com/mtracey/status/1011784068860661760 …

      Wow, I was totally wrong about the NY-14 race. Definitely allowed too much fatalism to set in. Happy to stand corrected!!

          Okay, but was this skepticism based off any on-the-ground reporting in the district? You are a roving journalist after all. You basically pulled a Nate Silver/Harry Enten on this one.

          You're right, it was a silly one-off tweet based more on instinct (and prior NY politics reporting) than on-ground experience.

          Maybe think twice about becoming a pundit again. They're all useless crap, and you brought yourself pretty close to treading in those waters
