Palin Endorses Hoffman in 23rd District, NY
Facebook ^ | Sarah Palin

Posted on 10/22/2009 5:42:40 PM PDT by WillT

The people of the 23rd Congressional District of New York are ready to shake things up, and Doug Hoffman is coming on strong as Election Day approaches! He needs our help now.

The votes of every member of Congress affect every American, so it's important for all of us to pay attention to this important Congressional campaign in upstate New York. I am very pleased to announce my support for Doug Hoffman in his fight to be the next Representative from New York's 23rd Congressional district. It's my honor to endorse Doug and to do what I can to help him win, including having my political action committee, SarahPAC, donate to his campaign the maximum contribution allowed by law.

Our nation is at a crossroads, and this is once again a "time for choosing."

The federal government borrows, spends, and prints too much money, while our national debt hits a record high. Government is growing while the private sector is shrinking, and unemployment is on the rise. Doug Hoffman is committed to ending the reckless spending in Washington, D.C. and the massive increase in the size and scope of the federal government. He is also fully committed to supporting our men and women in uniform as they seek to honorably complete their missions overseas.

And best of all, Doug Hoffman has not been anointed by any political machine.

Doug Hoffman stands for the principles that all Republicans should share: smaller government, lower taxes, strong national defense, and a commitment to individual liberty.

Political parties must stand for something. When Republicans were in the wilderness in the late 1970s, Ronald Reagan knew that the doctrine of "blurring the lines" between parties was not an appropriate way to win elections. Unfortunately, the Republican Party today has decided to choose a candidate who more than blurs the lines, and there is no real difference between the Democrat and the Republican in this race. This is why Doug Hoffman is running on the Conservative Party's ticket.

Republicans and conservatives around the country are sending an important message to the Republican establishment in their outstanding grassroots support for Doug Hoffman: no more politics as usual.

You can help Doug by visiting his official website below and joining me in supporting his campaign: http://www.doughoffmanforcongress.com/donate3.html.

Palin does not need to start a third party. She can be a conservative power broker that helps defeat “rinos” and the RNC establishment. Take back the republican party!!!

This is exactly where the GOP turf wars should be fought. God willing, Hoffman wins and the GOP “leaders” learn a lesson. But we won’t count on it.

Amen. Will the GOP listen? I took heat last year for saying I would not vote McCain, and lately saying I would vote for a dem before Crist. But that is the truth, Beck said it exactly right today on his show, who needs liberal light?

No, Romney’s in hiding until this race is over, so he won’t have to pick a side.

I think I saw him at the Unimart the other day wearing fake glasses and a rubber nose.

Wonderful news!!! And check out: The Most Important Number in Politics Today

Doug Hoffman is the Conservative alternative in this race (or Hoffman by PayPal).

Markos Moulitsas, founder of The Daily Kos has endorsed Scozzafava. Dede Scozzafava has also been endorsed by NYSUT, the largest labor union in New York, and an affiliate of the National Education Association.

Scozzafava also holds these positions:

Scozzafava has also run in past elections on the Working Families Party (a progressive party associated with ACORN) line on the ballot.

This lady isn’t a RINO, she is a big “R” libeRal democRat. Mark Steyn has coined the term DIABLO for her and others like her. Democrat In All But Label Only.

There are also at least 17 unprincipled DIABLO enablers in the house who have donated funds or otherwise supported to this LibeRal democRat's DIABLO’s campaign. They include Boehner, Cantor, Sessions, Hensarling, Brown-Waite and McCotter. I don’t have a full list, but I will be looking for it. These unprincipled enablers should be targeted for elimination in the primaries next year. Also, perhaps those of us who donated to the RNC or RCCC should ask for our money back so we can support the conservative candidates of our choice.

More threads ...
From the desk of
cc2k:
I support Doug Hoffman for Congress (PayPal).

Please, spread the word about this important election on November 3, 2009 in New York’s 23rd congressional district.

Way to go Sarah.

Hoffman said he will caucus with the Republicans.
New York being a liberal state for the past sevreal decades
Conservative Republicans have used the Conservative Party
as a pathway.

Hoffman is a Conservative Republican.

I agree. The North Country folks are much like Alaskans - independent, resourceful, freedom loving. Based on her draw in nearby Auburn last year of 20,000 people, I think her endorsement is going to be huge in advancing Hoffman to victory regardless of whether or not Scozzafava withdraws from the race.

I just reread the facebook entry. This line jumps out at me: “And best of all, Doug Hoffman has not been anointed by any political machine”.

It really speaks volumes for what Sarah thinks about the GOP, doesn’t it?
