John Gizzi gets top billing today at Human Events and is covering NY-23.
“The mayor of Plattsburgh just endorsed us and ten more [Republican town] committee members came out for Doug. And ten more congressman endorsed him today. We’re on a roll! The debate’s starting — gotta go.”
That was my conversation yesterday with Rob Ryan, spokesman for Conservative Party nominee Doug Hoffman in New York’s 23rd District.
Ryan was breaking the big news to me: that more local Republican Party officials and elected officials in and out of the upstate district were crossing party lines to back Hoffman over liberal GOP nominee Dede Scozzafava.

“Both of our political parties, at least the honest portion of them, agree conscientiously in the same object—the public good; but they differ essentially in what they deem the means of promoting that good. One side believes it best done by one composition of the governing powers; the other, by a different one. One fears most the ignorance of the people; the other, the selfishness of rulers independent of them. Which is right, time and experience will prove.”.Thomas Jefferson
