Catalina Lauf, the anti-AOC

I noticed this young lady a few months ago, but I somehow failed to mention her on the blog. Catalina Lauf—with her Latin first name and Teutonic surname hinting at a very interesting mixed origin (her mother is Guatemalan)—refers to herself as "the anti-AOC." That's smart marketing in this wacky age. She is running for a seat in the US House of Representatives, representing the 14th Congressional District of Illinois. If AOC doesn't get unseated in the next elections, we can only hope that Lauf—pro-borders, pro-Reagan, and pro-law enforcement—ends up in Congress seated not far from Ocasio-Cortez. This article claims Lauf is smart and good-looking; from what I see, she's a damn sight better-looking than AOC, which means nothing to me in terms of personal merit, but which means everything among women (and men) who value looks over brains and character. Let Lauf sit there in the House, radiating her superior looks and charm, while the feckless AOC fumes impotently off to the side.

She's a young Latina. She's from Illinois. She's running for Congress. And she's the polar opposite of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

She's conservative. She's smart. She's gorgeous. She supports law enforcement. She actually loves America. Her idol is Ronald Reagan. And she's not afraid to ruffle feathers.

Her name is Catalina Lauf, and she’s [26 years old.] Her goal is to steal a Democratic-held seat outside Chicago.

Ms. Lauf announced her bid for the GOP primary in the 14th Congressional District of Illinois, a GOP-leaning district covering a swath of western suburbs of Chicago.

Let the games begin!
