Hoffman's candidacy was born out of a belief that Scozzafava was insufficiently conservative and not entirely committed to the core principles of the party.

Another "DUH!" moment, capped off with a massive understatement.

Go Hoffman...

$25 sent. I’ll draft a letter to Michael Steele next week showing him that the RNC isn’t worth donating to, and that I am only giving to candidates and organizations that reflect my values. In this case, the value Hoffman reflects most is poking the RNC in its collective eye.

Yep, I sent him an email....told him same thing. I will be donating to candidates I support! Not Democrats with an R being placed in front of their names.

I’ve been wanting to say this for awhile now, and I can’t hold it back any more:

The GOP Party Establishment SUX!

Ah, there. I feel so much better now.

I just sent in $100.

Let’s send a loud message to the Republican establishment. No more RINOs or DIABLOs.

So did I. Supporting all of these candidates in all the other states, as well as my own, is getting quite expensive, but worth it, I hope.

I’ve been out of work for over a year and a half. Just got a job and start next week. I sent him $20

I sent another $100 after I read your post.

Congratulations and good luck.

sharp pickup. I am convinced that one reason so many public officials have tax troubles...is that it is one mechanism by which the Oligarchs assure fealty.

It looks like Hoffman has the election in the bag, but there is still time for an “October Surprise.”

Insufficient??
