Hoffman was for Scozzafava before he was against her

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.

Unlikely.

“Do you support politicians lying and breaking their words?”

What politician doesn’t?

[staytrue]

Offering aid and promising to back her candidacy are two different things.

He did both, but changing one's mind is not a crime.

[trisham]

You made my day. :)

[Mojave]

A pledge is a legal device and it needs and requires either a signature or it needs to be sworn under oath.

Nice invention.

[cripplecreek]

And you are way out of line to lay this on the GOP.

LOL go lay down boy.

[WOBBLY BOB]

no problem- if he was a dem , the media would say he’s “evolved”
if he already held office, he’d be said to have “grown in office”.

The Kitties have a process and they are not unreasonably quick triggered. but ...

Didn't Shakespeare say, "Cry Havoc, and let slip the Viking Kitties of War!"?

Dede's three strikes are:

1. Pro-choice/abortion.

2. Pro gay marriage.

3. Pro card check.

I find it telling that Daily Kos endorsed her, as well.

[Grunthor]

She sucks.

[Petronski]

Allow me to make a very conservative, very civilized statement:

Scozzafava's pro-abortion position sucks
with the sucking force
of a thousand gravitational singularities.

[staytrue]

when bashing what seems to be a voice among conservatives?

The GOP first and foremost is made of ladies and gentlemen, not a bunch of crude, swearing ideologues. The "conservatives" are just hurting themselves.

[doug from upland]

No, it is not specific enough. I have challenged you twice. This is number three. Present some evidence that he has abused credit cards or take back the scurrilous innuendo.

[Mojave]

When ad hominem arguments fail, the veiled threats make their appearance.

Anything to avoid addressing the facts.

[bfree]

nothing republican about her. Heck, she backs card check!!

[Petronski]

Not an invention, just a fact. Are you a lawyer? What do you know about pledges?

Why haven’t you shown us the pledge(s)?

[Mojave]

No, it is not specific enough.

I disagree.

[WOBBLY BOB]

Other than marriage vows, how many promises has Newtered broken?

Nice invention.

Provide a definition that says otherwise. It is a 14th century legal term.
