Likely true, but Murray looks to be a strong candidate. She could make it interesting.
It will almost be sure that whoever the DNC and Pelosi gets behind to Primary AOC will win. The 'machine' will get behind that candidate. I have little doubt based upon Pelosi's remarks here and there (including an actual primary comment) that is what is most likely to happen.

She isn't going anywhere.
She's from New York. She's young, attractive, and social media savvy. She generates TONS of headlines.
You would need to catch her asleep at the wheel the same way she caught Crowley to unseat her.
She isn't going anywhere and the Rights weird obsession with her only helps her build her brand.

Wanna make a fair bet?
What do you want to put her odds at in winning her District in 2020?

You are correct again. She'll get votes from Mexico, Honduras, Puerto Rico, and as far away as Russia. And none of the people who would have been working at Amazon there will vote for her.

Russia is all in on the GOP unless Bernie or Gabbard are the nominee. 
The rest yeah probably.

Yeah you can probably get my action... I think Mike doesn't like personal wagers but we can do a donation to whomever.
I've got a local charity in mind.
