“A Virginia Republican has invited U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., to campaign for the Democratic incumbent who the GOP candidate hopes to unseat next year.
Republican Tina Ramirez – who’s running against second-term Democratic U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger – extended the offer after Ocasio-Cortez recently insisted it was a “mistake” for moderate Democrats to consider their radical fellow party members a “liability.”
“For the past few years, Abigail Spanberger has been been living a double life,” Republican challenger Tina Ramirez wrote in a statement first provided to Fox News on Tuesday, referring to the second-term Democrat.
“In Virginia, she represents herself as a moderate Democrat. But that mask comes off in Washington,” Ramirez continued.
DEMOCRAT TEARS INTO AOC, RADICAL DEMS ON PAST BAIL REFORM COMMENTS FOLLOWING WAUKESHA TRAGEDY
“Having only interacted with Abigail Spanberger in Washington, it’s no wonder why Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez thinks a progressive message would be popular in Virginia,” the Republican added. “Especially after Spanberger voted for a multi-trillion dollar wish list masquerading as an infrastructure bill by the most ridiculous and dishonest of definitions.””
Comment: Virginia’s 7th District runs right up through the rural heart of the state west of Richmond. Spanberger is suitably disguised as a pretty, moderate white lady who was a career analyst at CIA. Ramirez is calling her out as a crypto-radical. You can be sure that AOC WILL NOT be invited to campaign for Spanberger. That would be the “kiss of death” in that district. pl

“Spanberger is a former CIA officer.”

Maybe this means nothing, but the number of former CIA officers that have recently entered politics, leaves me scratching my head.
Is there more here than meets the eye??

Not like the mafia, when you are out, you are out.
“Spanberger is suitably disguised as a pretty, moderate white lady…”
That describes quite a few school board members in VA and elsewhere. They’re all being outed by reality. I expect we’ll see a “Brandon” varient of Covid just in time to mail in ballots next November.
