Hoffman was for Scozzafava before he was against her
Watertown Daily Times ^ | MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2009 | JUDE SEYMOUR

Posted on 10/29/2009 5:59:36 AM PDT by Mojave

Doug Hoffman pledged to help Dede Scozzafava in an e-mail sent two days after the Republican Party passed over the Lake Placid accountant for the nomination.

The e-mail, sent from Mr. Hoffman's business account on July 24 and provided by the Scozzafava campaign, states in full: "Hi Dede, Congratulations and the best of luck in your candidacy. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Doug."

This is contrary to what Mr. Hoffman, who is now running against Ms. Scozzafava as a Conservative candidate, told me less than two weeks later.

When someone asks “how are you?” and you say “Fine” but really you’re not because you’re wife just got diagnosed with cancer and you’re upset.

Then you'd be a SHAMELESS LIAR!!! So, you are a liar like Doug Hoffman! That says a lot!!!

L I A R !!!!

Sorry, just practicing my Mojave impression.

This NY23 thing has turned into a national race.

Duncan Hunter is more conservative, and frankly more ideologically intelligent on economics and policy than Sarah Palin.

Like Hoffman, I wish Duncan Hunter was not such a dud. Does that mean I’m a RINO hack to you?

For a national race you’ve got to have the savvy marketing that Sarah has. Sarah is obviously no dud. She would handle this smear with a simple press release and be done. This guy is flailing about in relatively calm water here.

Because I wish the guy was better suited for the role he has unwittingly thrust himself into does not make me wish for Scozzafavabean’s success, or an Obama lover or whatever you want to reflexively retort with.

I don’t agree with Mojave at all. But I also note that this guy is showing he’s not up to the task the way some people are selling him.

so exactly what is your motive for putting down Hoffman on here who is clearly much more conservative than the RINO and the Dem?

Are you for the Dem if your not for the RINO?

You have twice mentioned not giving his campaign credit card information. That obviously suggests a problem and risk. Do you have any info whatsoever that the campaign has abused credit cards? If so, present it.

Mo-JIVE, as I will now call him, has outted himself as a LIAR already who has gone back on a written pledge on this very thread.... so why wouldn't he lie about that too?

One could argue that the credit card allegation amount to slander.

I very pleased that Hoffman had a change of heart about being gracious. He did the right thing. I would absolutely trust him more than her to vote the right way. Her discussions about considering running as a Democrat were far more egregious than his taking a stand and running on a third party ticket. They are not even close.

And his pledge to the committee to support the nominee they chose was what?

Which is it a pledge or a signature? I want to see the signature?

You are really worked about this. But are you not in California? Why do you care about NY politics?

Dede is a liar by default - claiming to be a Republican with her holding the liberal positions she holds? I call BS on this - Dede is using a typical liberal dirty trick to try and dirty up Hoffman for her benefit. It is not going to work.

But a leftist would falsely accuse him of lying. Just saying.

You just outed yourself as a leftist and don’t even know it. Game. Set. Match.

Yep. Busted. This has been one of the most childish threads yet.

*** Hoffman intends to lie his way to power. ***

"lies his way to power"? He sends a boilerplate email and its 'a lie'?

Yet you are apparently okay with this 'GOP candidate' who considered running as a DEMOCRAT?

.. some Republicans are already signaling that they would rather lose the seat than win it with a standard-bearer whom they view as a milquetoast moderate — one who has acknowledged that she discussed running for the seat as a Democrat last month with state Democratic Party officials. She’s also married to a leading labor official in the region ewho has close ties to local Democratic leadership.

And it seems a bit odd that someone who lives approx 2,800 miles away from this district in NY, like you do in CA, are so concerned about this race? And a bit more than odd that you openly support someone whose not only a leftist 'republican', but one who had no problem running as a DEMOCRAT.

So who is lying to whom?

How does this normally work?

Plant the seed.

Pop something a day or two before the election.

Use the resulting media “controversy” as cover for election fraud?

the attacks have started from the left and the RINO’s.

They’re running scared even s much that they feel they should come on here and defame Hoffman.

so sad
