      But she was "lefty" in a way most other candidates are not: she directly rebuked the party establishment, and her ideological presuppositions (socialism) are substantially different than the average "I'm More Progressive Than You" type Dem challengerhttps://twitter.com/ForecasterEnten/status/1013781542865338368 …

      Ocasio-Cortez is clearly indicative of some underlying trends within the Dem Party... but the fact that many (most) lefty candidates have lost in primaries this season & only 1 incumbent has been knocked off should, I think, give us pause in drawing too many drastic conclusions.

      Because the Party apparatus did not facilitate her rise in any sense, Ocasio-Cortez is not indebted to it, unlike the vast majority of people elected to Congress. So the incentives under which she'll operate differ hugely from the typical Dem. That's why the race was such a BFD

          It's true that the Party as a whole remains largely calcified, and once she enters the caucus she'll be subject to all the usual conformity-enforcing pressures. But the exceptionally *unusual* route she took to office means she's uniquely positioned to resist those pressures

          Which is why she, like Bernie, will face a difficult time trying to primary with the Democratic party if and when she decides to run for president.

          I doubt it. I'm sure Crowley and the DNC made her plenty of offers, financial and otherwise... she stuck to her small donors and beliefs. As far being ambitious goes, I hope she has ambition, but I can't imagine anyone running for any office, even at the lowest level, without it.
