I pray Hoffman can pull this off. That Rino hag Soccafava needs to drop out so conservatives can take this seat from Piglosi. This will be one less vote for ObamaCare, not that Scozzafava cares since she’d probably vote for it. Thank God that pig Joe Mondello who hand picked this loser has stepped down at NY Party Chair. The guy had to be a Democratic plant he did so much damage to the GOP there.
I wasn't aware there were any states which one could register as a Conservative?
Please contribute, what you can, to the Doug Hoffman campaign. Thanks.

In fact, a candidate in NY can run on more than one ticket, usually R&C or D&L.
I beleive more and more each day the GOP is in bed with the Dems. They support a liberal like they did Specter? Will the ever learn? Or did it play out and hoped for.
Rush just asked... Why isn’t she even a democrat?
she backed the stimulus, she votes for a lot of the liberal agenda.. her hubby is a state afl-cio biggy. why the charade?
Glenn Beck interviewed him on his radio show this morning, and said he would interview him AGAIN on his television show Thursday night. Conservatives WILL be impressed...
You cam register as a member of the New York Conservative Party, but not as a “conservative.” It means you can only vote in the Conservative Party primary, not the GOP or dem primaries.
The Left is trying to take over both parties. The Senate Rinos are on a mission from hell. The GOP could not have picked a more uninformed loose cannon than Steele. I hope Hoffman begins the derailing of this nasty plan.

The same reason so many leftist/progessives do not run as Democrats, there is too much competition if they do. Look what she has gotten by claiming to be a Republican, the money, the name-endorsements, it is an easier route to the seat ... or at least, it has been in past elections, for these phonies up in the Northeast especially.
The Grand Old Plop is pushing me towards a third party. Get it together Pube Party, or you are done.
This is one case of a third-party attempt I support -
District suitability - The district is obviously ready for a reasonably conservative Republican.
Low risk - It effectively pressures the Republican party organization in a high profile but low risk case. Even if the Democrat wins the seat will be up again next year, and the next time the party will be careful about its candidate.
Sent him a contribution today.
And that the Newtster also endorsed her is the final nail in his coffin of ever being taken seriously again by ay conservative.
Er, best to get in, not out, and best to get active in the party if you want your views to prevail inside it.
One problem with conservatives/Republicans is that the professional political class that actually shows up tends to the left.
They have the time and inclination to work this on the inside, the rest of us conservatives tend to work outside of politics. Its probably a self-selection effect based on personality.
A Hoffman victory COULD encourage others to get involved in the primaries next year...conservatism wins.
The GoP continues to back and draw ‘talent’ from the RMSP as well.

The party has a long way to go and shouldn’t let any Obama backflush effect misled them if some moderates win.
Infecting and disinfecting the party is going to be a long drawn out process
I was so impressed, I donated AGAIN, and I don’t live in that state.
That’s how we will FLIP THE HOUSE
Bypass the RNC and donate to the candidate.
Good point.
Prime example..
Bloomberg.
