She's like a puzzle piece that doesn't fit anywhere on the board.
I'm not sure how she got to Congress, much less got such a high profile, in such a short order. I can't tell what her game plan is, why people are willing to work with her or try and stab her in the back, what kind of leverage she's exerting, if she's effective, if she's just being manipulated, or if she's got a serious long term future. Is she a fluke? Is she the kind of candidate you can model after? What does she say about the modern political landscape?
I just know she's got a solid base of support and a wide audience. But, after that? She's a complete mystery to me.
she's a fluke in that the most efficient establishment machines are located in the states with the supposed most progressive bases and she somehow pantsed the Democratic Party giving a high profile area actual representation for once
Uh, well, shit. I simply do not understand politics at a fundamental level.
My instinct is that she's a manifestation of the general desire for systemic reform, and also a bit of a fluke. No system is perfect, and championing the disaffected should be a reasonably viable strategy when there are lots of disaffected around. Most of the rest is probably related to everyone else trying to figure out what's going on, too.
