More seriously: I bet a lot of Liberals would like Scozzafava to win at this point -- it would damage the Conservative resurgence and the downstream effects of that would really help the Democrats across the country.
That is exactly how I feel. ACORN and the Working Families party are about strategy and will run a so so Democrat or independent just to divide the vote and swing it in a certain direction. A public endorsement means nothing to the WFP if they are privately working for the other team. Some candidates are sacrificial lambs for a larger political agenda.
