Congressman Mike Capuano (D MA-07) Loses Primary

[ptbw forever]

Democrats are rejecting the democratic party. Will it go extinct?

Yes. Just like the Republican Party went extinct during Obama’s presidency

I think the poster is saying that the Dem party is moving so far left that it’s rejecting their center left base.

I get it. Just saying Dems won’t go extinct for moving left any more than Reps will go extinct for moving right

Republicans aren’t moving right.

Republicans are (or were) moving tRumpward.

I'm not even sure what direction that is though.

Towards common sense.

Ocasio-Cortez-backed Dem defeats 10-term congressman in primary, calls it fight for party's 'soul'
Ayanna Pressley, Dem backed by Ocasio-Cortez, upsets Michael Capuano in Massachusetts House primary

Boston city councilor Ayanna Pressley unseated 10-term U.S. Rep. Michael Capuano in a Democratic primary Tuesday in the latest shakeup of the House Democratic caucus by a far-left challenger.

Capuano conceded defeat to Pressley in the race to represent Massachusetts' 7th District approximately 30 minutes before The Associated Press formally called the race. With 69 percent of precincts reporting late Tuesday, Pressley had the lead by 10,682 votes.

Not lookin' good, Libtards, unless you're a left wing socialist wacko.

Still a Democrat right?

How is that a defeat for us?

Because a Republican can run next time and beat them.

Lol, that's funny.

So very wrong, but funny.

Doubtful.

Going even further left has its political consequences.

It is actually right, but soon even properly utilized common sense won’t be enough.

Because a Republican can run next time and beat them.

If Democrats can run in red districts and try to win against fairly moderate Republicans, Republicans can run in blue districts and expect to win against extremist Democrat candidates. The center left and center right will beat the far left every time.

Yes, they sure can try!

Let me know when it works out for them!

Her victory is yet another testament in 2018 to the wave of pent-up ambition surging through the party.

Her victory is testament that Democrats are now officially retarded as a party.

You can say goodbye to most scientists and highly educated people being Democrats in the future.

yeah, they are suddenly going to jump to the anti-science Repubs!



This shit is comedy gold!

You do realize that Democrats now reject basic biology, right?

 

[TNHarley]

Its just city council. Blows my mind how this made front page news last night. Know what else made front page news at Fox? A dog attack

City Council? It's an incumbent Democrat seat in the House. Where did you get that idea?

I corrected myself. Thanks!

You do realize that gender is not a biological concept, but a literary one, right?

Biology deals with sexes, not genders.

There is a civil war going on in the democrat party and the liberal media is trying to keep a lid on it. The stodgy old democrats think they are using the energy of the young socialists and communists that they trained for years for their demonstrations and dirty tricks but the party is crumbling under the socialist revolution.

Considering that Cortez is probably going to lose in a district that was thought to be beyond safe for Democrats, I would say that I am letting you know right now.

A Dem beat a Dem and it is a defeat for the Dems?

Are you really this stupid?

Oh, and the Dem that won has no Repub opponent in Nov for the general election so they are assured of the seat.

/——/ A Socialist democRAT beat a incumbent democRAT in a primary. The old guard is getting shoved aside by young radical leftist who have less chance of winning in the general election. It happened in the Bronx and now Massachusetts. Yes it’s a defeat for the DNC who doesn’t want this. Sorry if you were confused by my straight forward post.

Only a party zealot would think new blood in a party is a bad thing.

Plus I am willing to bet you my house vs your house that this person wins the general election in Nov...you willing to make that bet?

In b4 a locally popular "R" opponent throws their hat into the ring!

No, I don't make bets like that. $10 on the Jaguars? Yes.

The election is less than 2 months away, it is not even possible for that to happen!

Not at all. Every state has deadlines that have to be meet, keeps them from reprinting ballots 20 times

Though I guess they could do a write in campaign and see if that works.

I very much doubt she can beat Crowley and the Republican.

She got a pitiful percentage of the total vote in the primary.

Murkowski did that successfully in Alaska.

So a write-in is possible, correct? (Seems highly unlikely, but whatever)
