People been taking it to the street.


There is a word of profanity in that video so I would be careful posting it in a Christian's only section. And that video is not about an elected official and a political opponent that seeks to unseat them debating in the streets unannounced. If he wants to unseat her then run a good campaign and debate her in proper arenas , not a parade about PR where her focus was to show support for her culture. She wasn't there for a political debate. It was a like a high school fight set up; I"m surprised he didn't have someone waiting at a corner to pull her hair.

Okay??......that has nothing to do with the OP or what I said. It sounded like he had an entourage and she wouldn't play his game. I guess he can be mad about it. It's still good on her for not taking bait at a function that was clearly not for debating.

I'm sorry? Can you show me a post where I said I was on her side? I actually said I don't approve of any political side doing what he did. If he's that upset that she won her seat then actually do something about it by using the proper channels and not acting like a high schooler trying to metaphorically jump someone.

The goats wish to play the Vegas card here.

They are betting that when she does enter into a debate she will be a one big time loser on almost every issue.

Thinking she does not wish to debate anyone whether on a debate stage or in the street.

I would think her handlers told her to run, which is exactly what she did.

As noted previous isn't it a tendency in the political arena? Elliewaves makes salient points whether one allows their bias to enter the discussion to dismiss them. Also, as noted trump has given fox news 55 interviews and only maybe 8 to other networks... so it seems "running" is an appropriate tactic? What is the expression...there is a time and place for everything, or just read Ecc. 3.

Who needs them anyway? As Trump states often -- their ratings are falling, falling, falling.

I hear more and more of the level minded liberals calling into Conservative Christian radio daily saying they are fed up with their party.

What in the interviews that he did on those "liberal" networks wasn't fair? Or do you mean the Lester Holt interview where he admitted that he fired Comey because of the "Russia Thing"? He offered that, he wasn't being harassed at all...the truth is fox gives him the opportunity to bloviate without any questioning of his falsehoods, distortions, or outright lies. As for AOC doesn't whoever her opponent is have the opportunity to debate her in an appropriate forum?

It might need to be pointed out to you that she won the election...were you aware of that? Did you notice her questioning of Big Pharma...or military expenditures?

What are the credible (non-conservative) sources are you hearing that from?

Why should AOC feel obliged to debate any random conservative who demands it?

Not to mention he's an obnoxious man trying to show off in public. He reminds me of a male peacock strutting around with his chest puffed out and his feathers spread out, trying to look impressive.

GOP opponent says AOC ‘literally ran’ away when challenged to debate

Valdes’ account was echoed by Guardian Angels founder and radio host Curtis Sliwa, who said the incident unfolded when Valdes approached the progressive firebrand about 12:30 p.m.

“As soon as she saw him she did a pirouette — a spin — and she ran north on Fifth Avenue, ahead of her delegation, just to get away from Rich,” he said.

“I heard Rich yelling after her, ‘OK, AOC. You can run — but you can’t hide!'”
So politicians have to stop and debate any random person who challenges them? That guy isn’t a “GOP opponent” of hers, he’s a radio show producer. I’d run too.

Based on her debate history with Crowley, why would anyone think that?

Maybe he feels like he's a real macho man for yelling at her in public. A tough alpha male and all...

Trump is game for debate Anytime, Anyplace, Anyone.
A true politician that knows exactly where he stands.

Actually, that's probably why he is our president, he tore them (all up) in those debates.
