"Dems had the seat either way even if Hoffman did not enter the race??????? Scuzzy was a Dem all along, as conservatives pointed out."

Good point. It's not like we would have had conservative votes from Scuzzy. Might as well hang the unpopular liberal votes around the neck of the democrat than around a RINO claiming to be Republican.

Had Scuzzy won, she would have been voting with the Dems, but would have been tough to remove, as the Repubs would not support any conservative challenger in the primaries, telling us all to hold our noses for the good of the party. Screw that!! It would have been better for Hoffman to win over Owen, but it would have been worst of all for Scuzzy to win.
