ANALYSIS: The progressive Democrat went from being an insurgent to trying to be an ally of the Democratic caucus. The vote for Oversight shows the limits of that strategy, Eric Garcia reports

The article discusses Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (AOC) attempt to influence Democratic Party politics from within, focusing on her efforts to challenge the party's stance on Israel and its support for a resolution condemning Hamas. AOC, along with other progressive Democrats, proposed an amendment to the resolution that would have condemned both Hamas and Israel's actions in the conflict, aiming to present a more balanced view. However, this amendment was rejected by a significant margin in the House, with only 97 votes in favor compared to 311 against. This rejection highlights the resistance AOC faces within her own party when trying to shift its foreign policy positions, particularly on sensitive issues like the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The article portrays this event as part of AOC's broader strategy to play the "inside game" of politics, where she tries to effect change from within the established political structures, despite facing considerable opposition.
