One of Nancy Pelosi's lieutenants just lost a huge upset in New York

Rep. Joe Crowley, the powerful chairman of the House Democratic Caucus seen as a potential future speaker, was unseated Tuesday night by primary challenger Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in his New York City district.
Ocasio-Cortez had 58 percent of the Democratic primary vote to 42 percent for Crowley when the Associated Press called the race with 85 percent of precincts reporting.
Story Continued Below
Ocasio-Cortez, 28, challenged Crowley on ideological and racial grounds, arguing that the 10-term congressman was not in step with his majority-minority district and was too cozy with corporate donors.
A defeat would make him the highest profile Democrat to lose a primary this year, and the highest ranking House member to lose an intra-party fight since Republican Majority Leader Eric Cantor lost in 2014.

Joe Crowley.
Pretty crazy. She's even more far left than Bernie Sanders.

I'd frick her brains out, then when our wild night is over, I'd whisper in her ear "taxation is theft"

The Dem party is literally on fire and sinking.

This is good news on more than one front.
There’s the obvious loss of an experienced congressman and Pelosi ally.
And the further left the party moves, the more of their own voters will be left behind.

Wow! Big Trump Hater Congressman Joe Crowley, who many expected was going to take Nancy Pelosi’s place, just LOST his primary election. In other words, he’s out! That is a big one that nobody saw happening. Perhaps he should have been nicer, and more respectful, to his President!

That's what they get for enabling/allowing the loonies to control the party and narrative.

Ping-pong polarization is reaching a fever pitch. This is very very good.
