“I thought it was the conservatives in support of Hoffman and party loyalists in support of Scozzafava? How do you explain Newt Gingrich supporting Scozzafava?”
How do you explain Gingrich doing global warming TV ads with Nancy Pelosi? Answer: Gingrich is an unprincipled opportunist, not a conservative.
>>How do you explain Newt Gingrich supporting Scozzafava?
When Newt sat on that couch with Princess Nancy, he jumped the shark.
Hey, maybe we can make that a new political term! When a politician loses all relevance does something batsh!t crazy, we can call it “sitting on the couch”.
Ahhh but Newt is an idiot. He is lost in the OBAMA illusion that appearance politics will continue to trump the politics of principle. As the saying goes he is past his time, a danger to the conservative resurrection, and he should move on to the RINO graveyard until he can rediscover that “conservative principle matters over party identity”.
A defining moment for the GOP — but the voters of NY-23 need to show the GOP which end is up. If those voters choose the RINO, then the GOP will receive a very bad message, and our future will look very dim.
Anyone got an email address for knewt (as in past past tense)?
I sent Hoffman money this morning.
I’m fed up with pretending that (R) is the only answer for conservatism!
Conservatives should use this opportunity to send RINOs a message!
Just google “NY 23rd Hoffman”.
NOT SO!
In fact I have yet to see any "official" (cuz there ain't none) "Tea Party" endorsement--only some Tea Party individuals and participants!
Meanwhile, if Scozzafava loses, what does that do the Republican establishment. If Scozzafava loses then the Republican establishment has no credibility electorally. If a candidate beats their candidate and they do it using all outside resources then the Republican establishment has little electoral power. If that's the case, what is the future of the party at large? If the Tea Party movement becomes the driving force in the Republican Party how will that transform the party? Those are all questions that remain unanswered but they'll need to be asked because of the dynamic of New York's 23rd.
Well, Yes and Yes!
If Doug wins (AND WHY WE SHOULD ALL CONTRIBUTE) it WILL send a message and a shot across the bow of the Inside the Beltway Establishment and RINO's and it WILL strengthen those of us who are sick and tired and are not going to take it any more!!!
Does anyone here support voting for the RINO?
