The problem in NY23 is that the victories in 2006 and 2008 were with a conservative candidate. John McHugh had a 71.55% lifetime rating from the American Conservatives Union and an 82% cumulative rating from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. If the Republicans had put up a candidate with similar positions on the issues, this would have been a cakewalk. Instead they gave us the DIABLO, Scozzafava.

Hoffman is the right candidate for this district. His views are closest to the Congressman who won last year’s election with over 65% of the vote.

Doug Hoffman is the Conservative alternative in this race (or Hoffman by PayPal).

Markos Moulitsas, founder of The Daily Kos has endorsed Scozzafava. Dede Scozzafava has also been endorsed by NYSUT, the largest labor union in New York, and an affiliate of the National Education Association.

Scozzafava also holds these positions:

Scozzafava has also run in past elections on the Working Families Party (a progressive party associated with ACORN) line on the ballot.

This lady isn’t a RINO, she is a big “R” libeRal democRat. Mark Steyn has coined the term DIABLO for her and others like her. Democrat In All But Label Only.

There are also at least 17 unprincipled DIABLO enablers in the house who have donated funds or otherwise supported to this LibeRal democRat's DIABLO’s campaign. They include Boehner, Cantor, Sessions, Hensarling, Brown-Waite and McCotter. I don’t have a full list, but I will be looking for it. These unprincipled enablers should be targeted for elimination in the primaries next year. Also, perhaps those of us who donated to the RNC or RCCC should ask for our money back so we can support the conservative candidates of our choice.

More threads ...


From the desk of
cc2k:
I support Doug Hoffman for Congress (PayPal).

Please, spread the word about this important election on November 3, 2009 in New York’s 23rd congressional district.

moderate, pro-choice Assemblywoman Deirdre Scozzafava.

Moderate? MODERATE?? Frum, you ignorant slut, Scozzafave was endorsed by Kos. KOS. She's a moderate only in your RINO-addled Beltway universe.

If anyone had any doubt that Frum was an idiot, this column should remove it without a trace.

We need to get Michael Steele replaced immediately by someone who has the gravitas (hint) to take on the DC power brokers in the Repub party so that conservatives can run for office on the R ticket.

Draft Dick Cheney and his daughter, Liz, for this important task.

* Pro choice
* In favor of gay marriage
* In favor of Cap and Trade (I need to check my sources on this. Newt said she opposed this)
* In favor of Employee Free Choice Act (Card Check)
* In favor of the Stimulus
* In favor of Bank Bailouts

Why the h*** is this idiot a Republican, and why did the local party nominate her?

Hoffman and Scozzafava are splitting the Republican vote between them, allowing Democrat Bill Owen to emerge as the front-runner.

Yup.

The author of this piece, David Frum, is no friend of conservatism. He is a RINO maker and supporter. He wants the GOP to remain squishy on every issue. Go Hoffman! Shame on the NY GOP and Newt for supporting the socialist, Scozzafava.

It is time to stop blaming the conservative voter and start blaming the lame duck party.

Simple Solution - Scozzafava drops out of the race... Independent Conservative wins... Simple

State Republican Party leaders prevented an open primary race and instead engineered the nomination of one of their own, moderate, pro-choice Assemblywoman Deirdre Scozzafava.

Actually, we should rejoice when an idiot the likes of Frum calls our premature death, because he’s almost sure to be wrong. Frum really needs a neuron transplant, though he’s starting from a considerable deficit. He uses the Anne Coulter technique of deliberately writing provocation fairly well, but he flat out has nothing to back it up. He’s quite not worth getting upset about, he’s a nothing.

I’ve always said: “Compromise to a liberal means: do it my way.” It’s funny how Frum sees the problem as being with the conservative, and not the other way around. Compromise could also mean the RNC supports the conservative....

You’re reading too much into these 3 races. NJ is a governor race, and NJ deserves a crook in control.
As for NY 23, Hoffman is sending a signal to BOTH dems and Repubs, adopt a conservative plank and you can get MORE votes. Otherwise A shoo in if Hoffman voters get their needs addressed in a candidate who reaches out to Hoffman voters.
Ignore the Conservative voters, and its a tossup, not a sure thing.
NY 23 is a lesson ...... its a sacrifice of a Congressional seat to teach a lesson, maybe.
And once taught, the lesson doesn’t have to be repeated in other future elections.
When daily KOS likes a Republican Candidate, she is unacceptable.....learn the lesson Republican bosses. Americans want REAL CHANGE NOW....not GRADUAL CHANGE.

The long knives of the GOP are coming out against conservatives. It's the conservatives' fault that the flaming liberal Republican cannot win. The Old Party had nothing to do with it; they were poor, innocent victims.

Conservatives and libertarians, you are seeing that the GOP is not your friend?

You can only teach children that “if they play with fire..they will get burned.”

End of story.

Unlike the party it claims to represent, the GOP is more concerned with the total number of “R” in office than any particular agenda. If the GOP were about actual values and platform instead of a confusing, diluted elephant logo this wouldn’t be an issue.
