SCOZZAFAVA THROWS SUPPORT TO OWENS
Watertown Daily News ^ | 11/1/09 | Un Attributed

Posted on 11/01/2009 11:30:05 AM PST by tennmountainman

It is in this spirit that I am writing to let you know I am supporting Bill Owens for Congress and urge you to do the same.

It’s not in the cards for me to be your representative, but I strongly believe Bill is the only candidate who can build upon John McHugh's lasting legacy in the U.S. Congress. John and I worked together on the expansion of Fort Drum and I know how important that base is to the economy of this region. I am confident that Bill will be able to provide the leadership and continuity of support to Drum Country just as John did during his tenure in Congress.

I agree on that FRiend. It seems white is black and black is white in this upside down world today.

I was always a staunch Republican but the left has taken over the party. These people don’t represent me anymore.

If any RNC money was spent or still exists in her war chest (warning, don't visualize) it should be returned, forthwith.

She should be sued and forced to pay back every penny.

It is amazing that the GOP leadership is so blind that they don’t understand THIS is why conservatives won’t give squat to the RNC!

I keep sending back their letters with notes & no cash, but they really don’t have clue one.

The actual race isn’t till next year but the NRCC has named him to their Young Guns program because he’s doing well raising money.

BTW his name is Tim Walberg.

It’s hard to say. She had been rapidly losing support, so there weren’t many who were going to anyway. Maybe some personal friends in her district.

This is what the GOP leadership gets for pumping $900,000 of GOP donations into DeDe’s campaign?

Would you please provide a source for this number? Per Politico, the GOP didn't provide a penny as of Oct. 14.

Redstate.com indicated the Republican Party spent $900,000 to help her. They don’t provide any sourcing to back that up...magritte

If the National Republican Congressional Committee had not endorsed, funded and staffed Scozzafava's campaign, she would have had to drop out many weeks ago. They have done *more* damage than Gingrich and Steele, while hiding behind the faceless NRCC organization.

As of this morning, Boehner, the head of the NRCC, was still pushing "moderates" and the big tent: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2375879/posts.

With that, I give you:

Photobucket

The National Republican Congressional Committee

Rep. John Carter, TX (in pic, far left); DC office: (202) 225-3864

Rep. Eric Cantor, VA (third from left); DC office: (202) 225-2815

Rep. John Boehner, OH (fourth from left); DC office: (202) 225-6205

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, WA; DC office: (202) 225-2006

Rep. Pete Sessions, TX (sixth from left); DC office: (202) 225-2231

Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, MI (not pictured); DC office: (202) 225.8171

Note: Rep. Mike Pence, second from left, strenuously objected to Scozzafava, and refused to endorse her or send her money. In retaliation, pro-leftist house members like those above anonymously told reporters that Pence isn't supporting Dede because he's anti-woman.

From redstate.com, Erick Erikickson about 3rd story down

Dede Scozzafava is throwing her support to the Democrat, Bill Owens.

She and her husband are working with union activists to drive the vote up for the Democrat.

The Republican Party spent $900,000.00 to help her and this is how she repays them.

And Pete Sessions, Chairman of the NRCC, and Guy Harrison, Executive Director of the NRCC, still have their jobs and are failing to take responsibility for this disaster, instead blaming conservatives.

The Conservative movement ought to demand a refund and spend it on REAL conservatives.

With the exception of Pence, the very worst GOP leadership overall we have ever had.

Bohnior says he knew nothing about DeDe.

How is it that Pence did and withheld his endorsement and Bohnior did not? Bohnior’s lying thats why.

Just as he lied about not knowing about Mark Foley’s perversion.

It’s open season for RINOs from now on. Just be sure that when you take one down, it doesn’t get up again.

Pence is “anti-woman”????

These people have been working for him for how many years? and they have JUST DISCOVERED that he’s a bigot???

Either they are morons, or very indifferent to bigotry.
