Things get worse for most vulnerable Dem

Back in September, NRCC Chairman Tom Emmer identified Henry Cuellar as the most vulnerable Democrat in Texas, and things are rapidly becoming worse for the 8-term Blue Dog.

Just days after Emily’s List endorsed Cuellar’s socialist opponent, de facto Speaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez threw her weight behind Jessica Cisneros. AOC joins other notable liberals who have endorsed Cisneros including Elizabeth Warren.

AOC’s decision puts her squarely at odds with Nancy Pelosi and DCCC Chair Cheri Bustos, who have pledged to support Cuellar. Pull up a chair because this socialist showdown is just getting started!
