In reply to the discussion: NY-SEN: Schumer quietly nails down the left amid AOC primary chatter [View all]R B Garr
(17,980 posts)platform, that is just one thing she's been asked.
"All of this is to say that when Politico asked AOC the Schumer primary question, there is a 0% chance that she a) didn't expect it and b) hadn't already figured out how to answer it. Which makes the fact that her answer was, effectively, "we'll see," all the more intriguing.
She could have easily said something like I don't agree with Sen. Schumer on every issue but he is the kind of fighter New York needs and I will support him in 2022. But she didn't do that. And she didn't do it on purpose. Because she wants to leave the door open to running or, at least, make sure Schumer is on watch -- and perhaps make it more likely that he fights harder for liberal priorities that AOC cares about between now and 2022."
From CNN. Seriously, her quotes are all over the media. All easily findable.
