I was waiting for this to get front page attention. This is important to note that yes, the race is now between two people and Dede Scozzafava is not one of them.

. . . that the NRCC doubles-down on stupid so boldly. This is great news, and hopefully an overdue lesson heading into 2010.

Was wondering if she might make a surprise visit to seal the deal. It would be yummy to watch.

I am sort of new here, but everyone is here is very enthusiastic—finally!

but don’t expect it to happen. Newt was on Fox early yesterday morning and basically slammed everybody out of state for interfering and endorsing Hoffman. And he argued S’s conservative bonafides with words like ‘relatively’ and what the people of NY want and so on and on and on. I don’t remember him using the word ‘electability’ but it was essentially what he was saying in the same manner that McCain was the only one who could win against the Democrat in the presidential election.

I don’t know what people Newt claims want Scozzafava but that polls indicates otherwise, doesn’t it? Even if it is only 300 people.

and encourage folks to donate to the Hoffman campaign, and to ongoing Independent Expenditure ad campaigns against BOTH the liberals, Scozzafava and Owens…

IEs are important strategy to effectively go negative on the bad guys without the good candidate’s campaign having to do all the heavy lifting of getting “bad” records publicized.

This is fun, but it is vitally more than that, it is truly the first shots of the new Battles of Lexington and Concord — a Republic, only if we can keep it.

You can hear the ads that are running in NY23 on the two websites. Ad time is affordable in the North Country, and Minuteman PAC has been doing its own polling that shows that Hoffman CAN win, if Owens’ negatives continue to go up, and Hoffman gets his vote turned out. Scozzafava has imploded.

Come on, people. This isn’t won yet. Even small donations will help keep the hammer coming down on the opposition.

Fight hard, never stop, never surrender. And no getting cocky until we see herds of RINOs in full retreat!

Tune in, ya’ll!

Now imagine the possibilities for Hoffman if the GOP ditched Scozzafava and got behind Hoffman

Thus de-legitimizing their Ivy League educations…

Funny thing about arrogance…it will make a man go to his grave believing he was right no matter what happens to prove him a fool!

The “Big Tent” analogy isn’t the correct one…the correct one is a MAGNET…we need to be a MAGNET that draws these independents in who are sick and tired of what’s going on in Washington—Fred Thompson

party Conservative can’t win in NY I have only two words (no, not those): James Buckley.

I hope Hoffman wins, and I support those who are taking risks to support him. The next NRCC fundraising letter I receive will be returned with a picture of Scozzafava or Scuzzywuzzy or whatever that reject from a Belug Abzug Charm School is called, across which I will scrawl in big red letters: “Not. One. Freaking. Dime.”

Lather, rinse, and repeat . . .

BUT, it is plain that there is little more than wishful thinking in the thought: “. . . it is only 300 people surveyed with a 5% margin of error. What the poll tells us for certain and very reliably is . . . ”

A poll that small tells you NOTHING for certain and with darned little reliability.

How can Newt Gingrich justify his support for Dede Scozzafava a pro abortion extremist? As a Catholic he is now going against the Catholic church position on abortion. It is a grave sin for Catholics to vote for or urge support for a pro abortion candidate. How can Newt justify his support for a candidate who has voted 190 times for tax increases? How can he justify his support for an extreme liberal supported by Acorn and the DailyKos? Doug Hoffman is the only conservative candidate in the field. What is the point in having a Republican Party if its candidates are” taxaholics” and “spendaholics”? Vote for Doug Hoffman.

I’m originally from upstate NY, and am somewhat familiar with the conservative politics of that region. The Conservative Party usually is reliably Republican during election campaigns except when extenuating circumstances exist — which they do in NY-23. This is one of the most conservative districts in the country. Hasn’t elected a Democrat to Congress since 1872. Yet the New York Republican organization foisted Dede-baby off on a district where her stands were bound to strike off sparks. Hoffman wanted to run as a Republican, and was denied. Had there been a primary in the 23rd, he’d have gone head-to-head with Dede, probably beaten here, and been the candidate. Special election. No primary. Hoffman is in the race, but — if he wins — my money says he votes with Congressional Republicans a majority of the time.

Ordinarily, I’d say NY-23 is just another local Congressional special election. But circumstances across the country are making it much more than that, and — if you follow the blogs and conservative web sites — you can feel the excitement building for Hoffman. I think that’s got to have an emotional impact on voters in the 23rd. Don’t expect the media to give Hoffman or voters much credit if he wins. But, hey — that’s OK. The more they ignore us, the better the shock when we scak ‘em on their own 10. TWENTY-10, that is.
